People Share Their Pet's Hilarious Nicknames With The Internet

For a long time, at least as long as I can remember, there were maybe 10 to 20 different pet names that people seemed to rotate through. Fluffy, Happy, Brandy, Hopsy, Mittens, Buster, Bandit, and Baxter were all fairly common for what seemed like quite a long time. However, with the rise of social media and the internet—where we often see household pets with their own Instagram accounts boasting thousands of followers—people are becoming far more creative with the names they choose for their beloved four-legged friends... and their nicknames.

Recently, a Twitter user shared the nicknames they have given their pets, and the internet lapped it up. It started with a humble cat owner who stated that people needn't know anything about them other than the fact that their two cats meant more than anything to them. Their names? Jyn and Milky.

The owner then revealed that, despite her fur babies having official names, she frequently referred to them by their nicknames. Jyn's nicknames include Demon Baby, Beelzebub, and Potato Princess. Milky's include The Dairy King, Fuzzybutt, and The Spud Prince.

As strange as it may seem (to have nicknames for pets), the internet erupted with people who had absolutely outrageous nicknames for their pets, too.

Twitter user @metroadlib shared the many aliases of her dog:
