How to name a Pekingese: choosing a dog name and reviewing the most popular names


The temperament of a pet primarily depends on upbringing, training, and breed characteristics. But there is a hypothesis that the zodiac sign, the season of birth of the dog, and also the nickname have an influence. More precisely, a set of phonetic sounds that make an animal behave one way and not another. Perhaps the name does not determine the character and fate of the pet, but it is important that it be original, short and memorable.

What to name a show dog

Pedigree puppies, which are planned to be used at exhibitions in the future, must be named brightly, memorablely and with meaning. As is customary among horse breeders, for show animals the nickname is formed according to the first names of the parents written in the puppy’s pedigree.

For example, a girl from Wolf and Danae will be Volda, and a boy from Harold and Selina will be Segar.

You can emphasize the Chinese origin of the Pekingese, but be sure to check its meaning with a dictionary.

Important! For a show career, dogs only need a noble, pleasant-to-hear name - humorous and simply cute nicknames are inappropriate.


Show Pekingese are often named after their parents.

From ancient Greek goddesses to Old Slavonic names

Sometimes they try on the names of Greek and Roman goddesses for the Pekingese, and they end up proud and independent: Cupid, Nike, Artemis, Diana, Atlanta, Cassandra, Venus, Aurora.
What do you think of Cleopatra, Aphrodite, Athena, Medea, Hera, Ariadne? Still, it’s a good idea to study mythology thoroughly before naming a cute and affectionate animal after the goddess of the hunt Diana or, even more boldly, Hero or Aida.

Old Russian-speaking, diminutive names: Fekla, Motya, Nyusha, Ulya, Glasha, Sonya, Lika, Tina, Sima, Lada, Nora, Stefa, Varya, Basya, Lyusya and Marusya, Asya.

Respecting the puppy's pedigree


To give a sonorous and unusual name to a Pekingese girl or boy, you can use the method that is used for the nicknames of purebred dogs. By adding the first letters of the parents' names, you can get an original, unusual name for your pet.

  • This name is unlikely to be given to a neighbor's dog, or even in nearby yards. If the dog has a pedigree, then often you don’t have to rack your brains over the name; it is already included in the passport issued by the canine service.

If the nickname is very pretentious, difficult to pronounce, then, following the accepted rules, it is enough to name the dog so that the nickname corresponds to the first letter of the name indicated in the documents.

Nicknames for boys

Tips for naming a male puppy:

  • Antoshka, Archik, Achik, Athos, Ice.
  • Basik, Baks (Baksik), Bublik, Borka, Bonya (Boni, Bonka), Belchik (Belchonok), Baron (Barik), Beckham, Bond.
  • Venya, Vasya, Volt, Wooddy, Wally.
  • Grishanya, Gucci, Gray, Gus.
  • Jack (Jackie), Dick, Jerry, Jonik, Dobby.
  • Zhorik.
  • Kuzka (Kuzenka, Kuzya), Kokosik (Koksik), Krasavchik, Knopik, Kesha, Kasper, Kai.
  • Buttercup, Leva, Luke, Larry, Leo.
  • Maksik, Mika (Mickey), Marty (Martin), Marsik (Marselka), Marik, Musick, Misha (Mishka), Mikey, Maurice, Monty.
  • Nafanya, Nikki.
  • Donut, Prosha (Proshka), Pukhlik (Pooh), Plushik.
  • Ryzhik, Richie, Ricky, Ronnie.
  • Smurf, Sam, Semka (Sema), Smiley, Simba, Sultan.
  • Tishka, Timoshka (Timka), Temka, Teddy, Top-top (Topa), Toshka (Antoshka), Theo, Twix.
  • Umka.
  • Funtik, Fenka (Fenya, Fenny), Filya (Filka), Frankie, Fimka.

  • Devil, Charlie (Charlik), Chubik (Chupik), Chip (Chipik), Chucky.
  • Alvin, Edik (Eddie), Elvis.

When choosing a name, watch the dog’s reaction - does he respond to it, does he raise his ears. You can get used to a nickname: repeat it when you play with the puppy, twitch its ears, put food on it, or invite it for a walk.

The choice of music lovers, film buffs, flower and nature lovers


Music lovers call Pekingese girls Flute, Strunka, Notka, Gamma, Quinta. Movie buffs can give the dog the name of a famous movie or pop star, Hollywood actress and top model: Monroe, Marceau, Lola, Angelina, Linda, Sandra, Jessica, Kylie. Flower themes are also acceptable for dog names: Rose, Astra, Mimosa, Chamomile, Violet, Yucca, Lavender and Gloria. Thunderstorm, Blizzard, Blizzard, Blizzard, Snow, Rainbow, Spring, Dawn, Dewdrop - various natural phenomena, seasons are sometimes reflected in dog names. Lagoon, Wave, Undine are a marine theme inherent in the names of dog names. Select a name based on the dog's month of birth. Everything is extremely simple here: March, May, August, September, October, December, and in the same spirit.

What to look for when choosing

The well-known saying, “As you name a ship, so it will sail,” can also be applied to dogs. The puppy's name may be related to this:

  1. Appearance. A name based on an interesting individual feature (spots, tan marks), characteristics of the breed, color, density, length of fur, eye color, size of the animal, favorite facial expression.
  2. Behavior. Nickname based on the animal's character: Sonya likes to take a nap, and Little Devil likes to play.
  3. Documentation. If you bought a puppy with a passport, then the breeder has already given it a name. The option here is to come up with a simple but unique form from it.

There is nothing prejudiced if a celebrity's "celebrity" pet "shares" a name with your puppy. You can choose the name of your favorite cartoon, movie, or game character that your dog resembles. When looking for a nickname, try not to forget that Pekingese are small, mischievous, cute, but independent, proud pets. Therefore, the names of guard, hunting, fighting and “toy” dogs are not suitable for them.

You should not choose difficult-to-pronounce, long nicknames - it is better if the name consists of a couple of short syllables. An interesting observation: owners of small dogs prefer nicknames with hissing sounds.
