How to choose the right name for a French person?
If French bulldogs were born in a kennel, they are given a nickname taking into account the pedigree and regalia of their ancestors. All puppies in the litter start with the same letter - the first one with “A”, the second with “B”, etc. The official name of French bulldogs includes the name of the kennel. Sometimes passport nicknames turn out to be too long and difficult to pronounce. In this case, dog breeders call Frenchies by their pet names, and reserve official names for competitions and exhibitions. When choosing a nickname, follow the rules:
- do not give girls male names and boys female names
- the pronunciation of the nickname should be easy and euphonious;
- without ridicule or offensive meaning;
- there must be a lack of consonance with the main commands;
- names of dead or missing dogs should be avoided;
- do not call by human names (exception - foreign ones);
- do not choose the most common nicknames.

What not to call a French Bulldog
You cannot have a dog named after a previous pet. Especially if he died or got lost. Such a name will not only remind the owner of a sad past, but also carry negative information.
There is no need to choose a long and difficult to pronounce name - it is entered only in the animal’s veterinary passport. In everyday life, the dog will respond to an abbreviated, simple name.
It is better to refuse human names too. In addition, there is a chance that the animal's name may coincide with the name of a guest or new family member.
There is an opinion that animals named after humans are more susceptible to disease, melancholy and apathy, and aggression. Religious teachings prohibit naming pets after saints if they are the patrons of animals.
Also, a nickname for mongrels is not suitable for such animals. In addition, you should not give your pet an offensive or derisive name.
Nicknames with meanings for girls
