Name selection


So, small, cute dog at your home. And immediately the question arises: what to call it? It is usually not difficult to find a name for a boy. But the nickname for the girl is more complicated. Above the choice of nicknames can think very long. Let's look at the basic principles that should guide the choice of a name for a terrier girl and some examples.

Homeland of terriers is considered the northern United Kingdom, where these dogs were very popular. Probably because of their origin they are often given English names. For example, Vicky, Burt, Dominic, Jessie.

Of course, you can call a dog as you please, but it is worth remembering - the name largely determines the nature of the animal, makes a certain imprint on it. Most often, the mistresses of girls' terriers are the ladies from show business, glamorous ladies. And they prefer to carefully select the name of their pet.


It has become popular lately to call their dogs in honor of someone or even something. And yet it is recommended to remember - the meaning of the nickname is important.

Usually the name is indicated in the pedigree of the dog, and you can simply choose a diminutive pet name from him. In this case, there will be enough options, and there is not much to think about.

You can choose a name for a Yorkshire terrier puppy from the top of popular nicknames on the Internet. But then be prepared for the fact that the name of your York will not be exclusive and original. The girl will be almost "like everyone else", the name will not emphasize her personality.

Basic selection rules


When choosing a nickname for puppies girls Yorkshire terrier dog trainers are advised to follow some rules:

Number of letters

The name of the dog should be short and sonorous. It would be better if there are no more than 3 syllables in it.
Uniqueness. You do not want your girl to twitch at every sound, when someone somewhere is calling for her dog with the same name. Try not to repeat and choose the most unique and suitable name for the dog.



Call without humor

The name must be decent. You should not call a terrier any funny, in your opinion, a word like "tutya", "puss" and so on. The dog will get used to it and will be satisfied anyway, but from the outside the situation will turn out to be ugly.

Soft name

Canine scientists claim that Yorkshire terriers react much better to names with a soft, gentle sound.
  No need to choose names that reflect not the best traits of character. For example, little one, Bestie. This may well affect the behavior of the pet.
  Do not give a puppy a human name.

Choosing names for posterity

When your terrier has puppies, you also have a very important task - the choice of names for offspring. Usually, dog handlers determine which letter should begin puppy nicknames.

This is convenient to further determine from which litter was the dog. In most cases, the prefix from the kennel, in which animals are listed, is added to the official name of the dog. In such a situation it is recommended to choose bright, serious names. A diminutive pet would come up with a new owner.

Meaning of names


The first Yorkshire terrier appeared in the Soviet Union with a famous Soviet ballerina. Therefore, many people call dogs by the names of ballet stars: Giselle, Yula.

If it is very difficult to decide how to name a terrier, then pay attention to its appearance: colors, sizes.


The colors of this breed have no boundaries, and you will definitely be able to find original names that describe the shades of your pet's fur. For example, Zlata, Goldie, Blacky, Ducky, Caramel, Glitter, Shocky, Squirrel.

Despite their size, babies terriers have a bold character, easily adapt to the mood of the owner. Based on this, you can pick up an uncountable number of very different nicknames: Alayka, Bestia, Babby, Vesta, Daniella, Dolly, Zadi, Kuki, Baby, Button, Happy, Yukki.

If your dog is serious, with a proud character, then the name must be appropriate: bright, showy. Here you can refer to the names of famous brands and names. For example, Chanel, Cherry, Gerlen, Audi, Kristen. Such nicknames emphasize the uniqueness of the girl.


You can, on the contrary, choose a cute, slightly funny name. But do not overdo it with humor! Take the animal seriously. For a friendly, playful dog, such names as Lelka, Blot, Duska, Lyalka will do.

Do not forget about the miniature size of the dog, choosing a nickname. Agree, the names of Linda, Lyme, Ulla are more suitable for a large German shepherd dog than for a tiny terrier dog.

“As you call a boat, it will float in the same way,” said the character of the notorious Soviet cartoon. The influence of the name on the character and sometimes even on the fate of its carrier has been known for a long time, which is why future parents choose so carefully how to name their child. The same is true with dogs - they are the same children! But it is worth considering that not every name will suit a particular pet, for example, it will be strange to see a graceful poodle Sharik. What kind of nicknames are chosen for girls-Yorkans - these charming ones and, what is to confess, often the beloved dogs that have become the symbols of fashionable?

Breed history

Let's start with the roots. Few people know that this English breed was bred by peasants who were forbidden to have large dogs — they were afraid to know that large pets could compete with their own dogs on hunting grounds. Yes, the cutest Yorkshire kids were originally hunting dogs, and the main victims were rats. Gradually, the peasants began to move to the cities, leaving, of course, their furry pets.

At the new place of residence, the rapidly accustomed Yorkshire first confirmed their reputation as excellent hunters, and then, thanks to their small size and similarity to the popular, but expensive, they moved into the living rooms of the very aristocrats who once pushed the people to breed this breed. Of course, nicknames for York-girls with meaning were most popular in those days, and the same can be said about names for dogs-boys - the owners tried to emphasize the importance of their little pet: Amond (almond), Isolda (ice dominance), Jule (treasure).

But at the beginning of the twentieth century, nobody knew about an amazing breed, except for the British, only during the Second World War the Yorkshire "moved" to the continent. The history has preserved the name of the Smoky Terrier, who consisted in the ranks of the American army: he repeatedly warned his two-legged fellow soldiers about kamikaze attacks. After the war, the charming and friendly Yorkshire quickly won the love of dog breeders on both sides of the ocean.

And today, these English rat-catchers are popular, bribing their owners with activity, obedience and, frankly, pretty. True, today, instead of sonorous names with meaning came nicknames for York-girls diminutive-petting, emphasizing their miniature and subtlety: Barbie, Vicky, Zhuzha, Obby and so on. Probably, they are more suitable for fluffies - today they have retained their decorative effect, forgetting about the heroic rat's past.

Laugh for the sake of!

Choosing a name for a pet, not everyone tries to find something seriously aristocratic. And, probably, the nicknames for cool York girls better emphasize their light character and sociability. And here you can give free rein to your imagination - Toffee, for example, is perfect for a baby with caramel wool. A button can be called Yorkshine.


From the popular verb "hang out" the owner of the Yorkshire created the nickname Tusya - a terrific option for a sociable dog. If you wish, you can come up with anything, the main thing is to find the very word that suits your pet.

Back to basics

But no one has canceled the nicknames for York girls-beautiful and euphonic - the breed is still an ancient, albeit not quite notable in origin. Today's dog owners can choose a name for their pet from any known language - the British aristocrats, who were isolated in their kingdom, were deprived of this privilege. As mentioned above, usually sonorous names carry a complex meaning as well. Amanda, for example, means "worthy of love." And Dominic is "dominant." Tina is "quiet," and Felicia is "happy."


In addition, who prevents to call a dog named after a famous character? Juliet, Gilda, Scarlett - the list is really endless. True, they say that the name of the heroine can affect the fate of her fluffy namesake, so you need to be careful in choosing a nickname for a fluffy pet.

Famous Yorkshire from Russia

Speaking of names for Yorkshire terriers, one cannot ignore the fact that these dogs very often live in the homes of famous people. What are the names for celebrity girls who choose York?


Among Russian celebrities can be noted Ksenia Borodin, a former member of the TV project “Dom-2”, and now the famous TV presenter. Her pet name is Shtrudja, and the little one appeared in the house of Borodina after her arrival (Xenia, of course) in a prestigious university. TV presenter is crazy about dogs, however, now it is very difficult for her to leave Strudue even with her friends for a long time - Yorkshire is very attached to her mistress.

Dima Bilan, the winner of Eurovision, got the Tracy Terrier during the concert - it was a gift from fans to her favorite performer. According to Bilan, his dog, like the owner, has a sonorous voice, so, as the performer jokes, one day they will record a couple of songs together.

Julia Kovalchuk, the singer, is the owner of a dog with a long name Melody of the Blue Pearl, or Meli, if in a simple way. Previously, the baby was constantly traveling with her mistress, although she was struggling with the road, but now she is quietly staying at home for a long time.

And from abroad

Jean-Paul Belmondo and his wife came together precisely because of the Yorks - their pets decided to meet during a street walk, and later the owners followed their example. Maia and Calypso live in the couple’s house, photographers say that the “father of the family” is often met in pet stores where he buys sweets for his little ones.


Distinguished by her love for Yorkies and Paris Hilton: she’s growing the third generation of terriers at all, though it’s not much about dogs, they say that one of Yorkshire’s name is Baby .   Supermodel Gisele Bundchen - the owner of Species. The dog, according to rumors, very often travels with his famous mistress.

Top Names

Nicknames for York girls are popular - quite an interesting moment. On the one hand, the names that are in demand are usually truly universal and can fit any dog, but on the other, what about originality? Such nicknames "for all" do not emphasize the individuality of the pet.

In the trend now such names as Betty (short for Elizabeth, perfect for the meek and calm dog), Ricky (fidget and fear, who always strives forward), Jessie (short for Jessica, which means "God observes," is an excellent nickname for bold and clever dog), Fefela (the name is a paradox denoting a clumsy and awkward dog) and Tina (a terrific name for a responsive and affectionate little girl who will always and everywhere be with her master).


Yes, choosing nicknames for York girls from the list of popular names is not a good idea. Some names may simply not be suitable for charming fluffies, which are traditionally associated with fragility and refinement.

Name the letter ... "Y"!

Some owners prefer to choose the nicknames for their pets on a particular letter, perhaps because of some stereotypes, perhaps in an attempt to adapt the name of the pet to their own. There are letters in which you can find dozens of options for a variety of names, but for others to pick up something is really an impossible task. So, for example, nicknames for York-girls with the letter "y" is not as easy as it seems at first glance. The book Ursula comes to mind - but this is not the best option for a light Yorkshire. Luck is also somewhat ponderous. Ulla also sounds like a name for a large dog, not for a cute terrier.


Umka is a terrific version of a Soviet cartoon that emphasizes the uniqueness of the dog. Perfect and the name Unica, sounding so much like the word "unique."

The only advice when choosing a name for a specific letter is to “try on” it on your pet to avoid embarrassment. And then, quite likely, you will find exactly what is perfect for your pet.

Conclusion

Each owner is free to choose which name to choose for his pet. As you can see, the nicknames for York girls are something that you can fantasize for a very, very long time. Try, experiment - and your baby will be the very, very unique!

How to choose a nickname for the Yorkshire terrier?

The easiest option is to pick up a diminutive pet name from the official nickname of your dog listed in the pedigree. For example, York with the representative name Royal Blue Secret Union at home can simply call Secret or affectionately Yusha. And the lady named Kiss Me Sweet is called the hosts Sweet or simply Svetka.

Another option for choosing a nickname for a Yorkshire terrier is to compose it from the first letters of the names of all family members. For example, your family consists of Michael, Oksana, Anton and Nicholas. Then the dog can be called Amon or Monica.

The main thing is that the nickname follows several simple rules:

    The name should be short. It is best if it contains no more than three syllables.

    The name must be original. Then your dog will not run up to other owners who call their pets with a similar nickname.

    The nickname should be decent. It is not very pleasant to call a dog called Tubzik to yourself when strangers are nearby.

If your Yorkshire terrier brought offspring, then the choice of the nickname becomes an even more responsible task. The official names of dogs must begin with a certain letter - your club's cynologist will call you. This is convenient not only for the RKF (Russian Cynological Federation), but also for breeders, because by a dog's name you can determine from which it litters. If the puppies belong to a kennel for dogs, then the factory prefix will be added to the name. It will be at the beginning of the nickname, if the name is a common noun, or at the end, if the name contains the suffix "from", "c" or "from".


Pay great attention to the choice of the name for your dog - after all, this is a Yorkshire terrier, whose nickname should be noble and representative.

Some owners of Yorkshire terriers prefer to choose cool nicknames for dogs. After all, this little dog is so small and funny, a name like Lelik, Blot or Dobby will suit her so much. You can use the names of popular brands for "naming" your dog. For example, Chanel, Honda, Lexus, Gerlaine or Mercedes. Such a name will emphasize the exclusivity of your pet.
