There is something unique about the funny pet names we give to our four-legged companions. They might sound insulting to those passing by, but to the pet owners, they are special. Plenty of funny animal names try to put a smile on people's faces. However, the line between cringe and funny is thin, so it's important to think about the name beforehand. The funny names for pets we create are not always as hilarious as we think.
The good thing with many hilarious pet names — we understand them quite perfectly and get a laugh out of them, while our four-legged companions don’t. Unlike with a child’s name, we can be silly when naming our pets. Some funny dog names, like Big Dog and Glitter, seem ridiculous but suit quite perfectly for a pair of big, scary dogs. For the funny part of the name to stick, you have to play into the breed of the pet, its looks, and its personality.
If you are out of hilarious names to give your pet, you don’t have to search the whole internet. User Sigma_Rho asked the veterinarians of the AskReddit community about the hilarious names of pets they've heard. Below, we have compiled a list of the funniest pet names given by other users! Upvote the ones that put a smile on your face. On the other hand, if you’ve heard a hilarious name yourself, share it in the comments below.

"NAV, but when I was growing up we had 20-30 cats at any given time. My brother was pretty abusive towards them (it was pretty traumatizing living the way we did, so please be forgiving ).
Anyhow, we had wood floors and my bro would pile kittens up in front of the wall, take another kitten and slide them into the kitten pile and call it 'cat bowling'. Most cats would run away after being used as a bowling ball, but this one would run back to my brother and wait to be used as a ball again.
I named him Stupid. Stupid was a sweet cat. He would endure anything for attention. He also drooled... a lot.
One time my brother put rubber bands around his legs because he thought it was funny to see him bounce around and walk funny. Brother got bored of the game, Stupid ran off. He chewed through his leg to get the rubber band off and we had to get the leg amputated.
After the amputation I became protective and Stupid became the only cat allowed in my room. One night I was petting Stupid and then stopped because I was drifting off to sleep. Stupid kept nudging me and I kept pushing him away. Then Stupid bit my nose and wouldn't let go.
I jumped up screaming trying to shake him off. He wouldn't budge so I was bloody and screaming with a three-legged drooling cat named Stupid hanging from my nose."

It is ironic that his nickname is "Stil"... because he is literally never still XD He can't be, due to the myoclonus! XD

I have had a beagle named Beagie, a yellow lab (almost white) who my dad named Farrah Fawcett because she was the prettiest blonde on the beach, and a really great mutt named Puppy Boy. Also, a rescued 3 legged cat that I named Tripod. Someone threw out an enormous orange Tomcat in front of the house (I live on a corner about a half mile from the nearest house, so people often drop animals there). First thing I said when I walked outside was "Dammit, not another cat!" I had Dammit for about 10 years. Several years after he passed, a tabby cat showed up, so I kept with the theme and she became DC (Damn Cat). I named my iguana Gomez, from the Adams Family. Had a rabbit named Easter. Raised a baby deer until he was off the bottle because the game warden couldn't find anyone licensed that could take him at the time. I named him Buck.

My childhood dog was named "Little Boy". Was a sincere problem when he got out (which was often), because we'd be roaming neighborhoods calling for a little boy. Nearly got my dad arrested once. The other pet is a legend in my family history: a cat named "Butt S3x". He was a friend of the family's cat and had been named by their teenage daughter's boyfriend (who was the original owner). My younger sister was ~ 2 when someone slipped up and said the full name in front of them. Little sister would constantly talk about how much they loved butt s3x, and one day yelled about it in a grocery store. Horrifying, but hilarious.

One of mine is officially Boris (Boris Yell-tsin, as he was a very noisy kitten), but he's more commonly called 'Who's mummy's big fat wobblebelly boy?" usually while I'm wobbling the belly.

My childhood dog was named "Little Boy". Was a sincere problem when he got out (which was often), because we'd be roaming neighborhoods calling for a little boy. Nearly got my dad arrested once. The other pet is a legend in my family history: a cat named "Butt S3x". He was a friend of the family's cat and had been named by their teenage daughter's boyfriend (who was the original owner). My younger sister was ~ 2 when someone slipped up and said the full name in front of them. Little sister would constantly talk about how much they loved butt s3x, and one day yelled about it in a grocery store. Horrifying, but hilarious.

I used to play WOW. Hunters in the game can tame wild animals to help fight. The animal will follow the character around on-screen, and players could see the animal's name. I would always tame a wild boar whom I would name Andbeans.

My parents had neighbours, years ago, who had two goldens named Tanqueray and Schweppes. Yes, they were a gin and tonic.

When I was young, my next door neighbours had a cat called "Come On". I now wish I'd been old enough to ask how that came to be, because I still wonder

I named my kitten Obelix since I really wanted a big cat and his mother was quite large. When he was grown he was the skinniest and tiniest male cat I've ever seen. Super chatty and cute though. But Idefix had been way more fitting, he also loved taking walks and would follow me to the school bus every morning and wait until it arrived.

I have a dog named yin yang and midna, and Booster Gold. I work at a LPS and I love some of the names parents give their pets. I like Walter, Cash, zelda, and more. Way too many over used names though like Buddy, Rosie, bisquit, Champ, Greek Gods, names that are ANY type of plant(trees, flowers, food) Butters, every flipping Disney character, the weather(winter, summer, etc), Bella, izzy... I want to see more of these silly names instead.

My snake was originally called Caramel, but I ended up calling him Steve. It was very funny when my brother's new gf got confused and called my dad (Stuart) "Steve". It's a nickname that's stuck
