    I wanted to name our dog 3D when me and my wife got him a few years ago but was shot down. I also wanted our children to be named Cortana if we got a girl. My father in law though we should spring for an old norse name and I thought combining the names Odd and Roar (pronounced ro (as in row) - ar (are)). Nether was accepted. And she wanted our next dog to be a female and Papillion named Diva. I've actually never used my pets names as a password but the name of their species has been in there a few times but I do thing you got a valid point! :)

    I can see why your wife doesn't agree to 3D, but did she have to shoot him for it? :sigh:

      But when we let our kids name pets - should we warn them that they will use that name for the rest of their lives as passwords to access computers and stuff?

      No, if the name is insufficent just buy them a new so they can try again, my first guinea pig was named "General Kassad the Shadow" (Prince Kassad from C&C[^]) SFW i guess

      Rules for the FOSW ![^]

      if(this.signature != "")
      {
      MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
      }
      else
      {
      MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
      }

        "Mademoiselle" in fact - chosen by my sister. Within the year that became "Madam" when she gave birth, and ended up as "Fang" after she attacked a German Shepard... Lived to the ripe old age of 18, before succumbing to massive cancers (probably caused by the Chernobyl fallout in Suffolk where she was living with my mother). I don't use this for security questions as I can't spell it... :laugh:

            The most important thing in naming a dog is to make sure it's a name you are comfortable shouting out at 11pm.

                      I once joked with friends about to get a dog they should name it "Dfer", so when people reply "Dfer" you could say "D for Dog", they still own the dog and its name is Dfer :laugh: /Darren

                        I know of a cat called Kick, named with similar logic.

                        I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

                          I let my Daughter name our Cat. She chose "Princess Pink Sparkles". Everytime I took her to the Vets the assistant would call out "Princess Pink Sparkles" the whole waiting room would stand to attention waiting to see who would stand-up. When we moved, I was wiser, and told the vet the name was 'cat' (I remembered the embarrassment of Princess Pink Sparkles' but put on the spot, didn't have enough time to think of a plausible name. She got run-over and died and handed in to the vet two weeks later. I rung-up to find out and felt well guilty that it appeared that after 6 years we still hadn't bothered to name our cat and referred to her simply as cat.

                            I once named a cat Scooby Doo. Simply for the reason I could shout out my back door "Scooby, Scooby Doo, where are you? I thought it was hilarious, my missus at the time didn't.
