Do u think it is ok to name a kid after a dog?? A dog.

Sure. "Spot" is a perfect name for your little darling.

As long as you like the name, what does it matter? Go right ahead.

No. A child is a human being, not an animal. It seems a bizarre idea to me to raise an animal to such a high level that you'd want to honor it by naming a child after it. I would be offended if my mom had told me she named me after a dog.Now, just b/c a dog has a human name, doesn't mean you can't ever use that name. If you love the name Harold, but know a dog named Harold, that doesn't make the name off limits. It's the act of deliberately naming a child in honor of a dog that would weird me out.

I guess if you really like the name......but I would think twice at...Rover...or Fido.....Spot.....ya know.

Are you crazy, Mcdonalds is so much better than Burger King.

No, that's a little odd. It's like giving respect to a deceased animal as if it's a person. I would name a dog after a dog, but please not a child.

My dog was named after my grandma, so it should be ok

It depends on what the dog's name was. If the dog's name was something like Fluffy or Princess, well then of course not. But if someone had a pet that they truly loved & cherished as a part of the family, and the pet had a decent name, then I don't see the problem in it. If the dog's name was like Sophie or Jake, then there's nothing wrong with naming a child Sophia or Jakob

Heck yes. As long as it's not Fido or Spike or something. My fiance and I are considering naming our first boy Otis after the dog in "Milo and Otis". It's kind of cruel in a way, I guess, but we have a sense of humor, and kid's get made fun of regardless of what their name is. So go for it! It builds character.

What's the dog's name? My parents nameed me after a guy on "Star Trek".

It's a little odd, but I guess as long as you're not naming the kid Lassie or RinTinTin

Depends on the name of the dog I think. I mean, there are a lot of pets now a days with human names. I named one of our dogs Sophia, and that's a name of a girl I know. There are also dog names like Daphne and Eddie and those are people names, so I guess it all depends on what the heck the dogs name is anyway. If it's something like Socks or Beast, then I'll double think that one.

yes do you name dogs after kids yes, people name people off of plants like rose,tulip,sure do it will be fine except for spott......

No, it's not and when that child goes into school with a name like "Spot" or "Lucky" that is just asking for that poor child to be teased. You shouldn't put your child through the horror of having to be teased all through school or at all because of a having a DOG name. It's a human not a dog.

Depends what the name is

depends....my dogs are gabbie and isabelle, so in that case yes...just don't tell them they were named after a dog. and also not bcuz u liked the dog but cuz u liked the name.

well unless the dog is named something like blackie or spot where do you think dog names come from. Most of them are people names that you give to an animal. So of course you could name a kid the same name as a dog.

I had a cute little hamster named Amelia Octavia. She was small,funny,curious,friendly, and she loved to dance. (yes my hamster danced and kissed) I really love her name. Amelia Octavia it brings me many happy memories of a very joyous soul. I don't see the horribleness in naming a child after something that was very endearing to me.

No Absolutely Not!
