I can't be doing made-up names.. They sound like your trying real hard to make a statement.
We've got a Kevin, a Malcolm, Elsie, Len, Sid, Harrison,Gerald, Sheela, Bruce, Mostyn, Bovis and Terrance..plus two dogs Megan and Georgia

None of my lot have human names, most were named after charactors in books and movies.

Yeah, i think the naming them after characters in books is a really good idea.

I've never given any pets human names
My pony is called Seamus but he was already named when we got him (he came from Ireland)

I like animals with human names, there is a horse at the yard I work at called Phil.
Previously we've also had a Peter and a Petra.

My mums dog is called Heidi, and our other one (that my dad has now) is called Hans... because they are standard Schnauzers
