This is a great topic!! My little Bailey thinks her name is Corgi. Lol!! That's what I call her the most is just my little Corgi. She gets Corgster, Corgmeister, Tiny Dancer, Bailey Butt, or Bailey Lady. I'm sure she calls me 'person' or 'human'. Then there is Cheech. He's usually my Cheechum! I HATE it when people call him Cheche.

As far as how I got their names....well my Ex-Husband named Cheech and my mother named Bailey after Bailey's Irish Cream. Yep, I do realize that I'm living with a stoner and an alcoholic.

My Cardigan is named Finnigan. We had the name picked out long before Finn was born but it's perfect for him. I wanted an Irish name because I am mostly Irish and Finnigan was the name of a character (don't laugh, it was a long time ago) that we created in a roll playing game we ran at one time so we both really liked the name.

For short we call him Finn though he actually seems to respond better to Finnigan. His nick names from me are Bubba, Little Bubba, Harry Mary Puppins, Puppins, Finny Guinea Pig, Finny Ginny, Baby Dog and Monster. My husband calls him Little Boy and Finegar. Whew, what a list!

We named our boy Midas. Usually we call him mighty, mighty butt, mighty man, king mighty, chunckers, moo cow, or mr. wiggle butt! They all fit him very well.

We have Violet - her AKC registered name is Simons Hope's Violet Ilotte....her nickname is Vi-Vi. And we have Magnus....his AKC registered name is JS Magnus Primus which means "The Magnificant One" in latin. We call him Mag or Mah-Mah. I have to wonder what our neighbors think.......we also refer to them as the "bunnies" - we don't actually have dogs, just the "buns". Or "puplets". My co-workers really think I need to get a life.

When my husband and I got out PWC we had a hard time with names. We went back and forth between Napoleon (little man with big attitude), Ein (like in cowboy bebop), Xerxes (god like complex) and others.
He had big personality from the beginning and we decided to wait and see what he was like before we named him. He was a goof, always getting into trouble with the best intentions. He needed to be reassured he was loved all the time. He took roll as the leader of the house (even though he's not we just let him pretend). We were big into Flight of the Conchords at the time and realized he acted just like the band manager Murray Hewitt. Then one day we were watching the show and a joke was made calling Murray ginger balls and David and I laughed and looked at Murray's ginger bottom and decided then and there that Murray would be his name.

nicknames- Monkey, Murr, fluffybutt wigglebottom, jerk face

Someone else's post reminded me of this list of names and how they came to be, and I've been chuckling and smiling reading through these.

The SPCA called our girl "Baby Girl", which sounded about as appealing as "Jane Doe". We wanted to give her a Welsh name, and Bronwyn, which means "white breasted", sounded nice and describes her coat pretty well. We also call her Princess Bronwyn, Bronny, Bron-Bron, and Bronny-poo. Our trainer calls her Short Stack because it took him a while to remember her name, but he's gotten it now.

My wife and I both like Charles Dickens works, and if we ever get another corgi, we want to name it after one of Dicken's characters. Maybe a male named Fezzywig?

Potus stands for President of the United States. It's not to be an insult to the President of the U.S., rather my family loves the West Wing. My mum originally wanted to call our pup Sam, because that's Rob Lowes character in the show and she thinks he's cute. But I wanted a more original name, my brother suggested Potus, which is used in the 1st episode of the show to refer to the president. I loved it, and so Potus got his name.

It being an unusual name we constantly have to explain what it means, and people often mishear us and think his name is Otis. But we love it, and so does our vet. She's so thankful when she sees pets with original names!

His nicknames are varied, mostly 'Po'. Sometimes he gets his full name if he's naughty,and Fatty although he's quite thin. My brother calls his Stupid, but in an endearing way. His also been known to be called Fluffy Butt, as well as Carol for awhile, because his butt hait developed a little flick like the characters hair on the Brady Bunch.
