Congratulations! You’ve just adopted a precious Pekingese, which is one of the sweetest, smartest, and most outgoing dog breeds on planet Earth! You’ve got everything your pretty little Pekingese needs, including a collar, a comfy bed, brushes, bowls, a leash, and all the rest! There’s only one thing left to do, but it might be the most difficult: choosing a name for your furry new friend. The big question is, what type of name do you want to bestow on your new Pekingese? Maybe you want a name that goes along with their cheerful personality? You might want a name from your favorite TV show, movie, or book series or a moniker you’ve always loved and have been waiting to use. To help, we’ve collected 284 names that go perfectly with the Pekingese below!

The Best Way to Name Your Pekingese The thing about naming a dog, especially a special breed like the Pekingese, is that you don’t want to go the well-traveled route. Lady for a female, for example, has been used so many times that it’s become a bit boring. You can say the same thing for Max or Rocky, which have been used more times than there are Rocky sequels! It should be something you won’t get sick of saying after a few weeks or months. For that reason, knowing the personality traits of a Pekingese can be helpful. They include:

Friendly

Highly extroverted (outgoing)

Affectionate

Barks frequently

Intelligent

Loyal

Stubborn

Slightly jealous

Devoted to their family

Independent

You should also consider the physical traits of the Pekingese when choosing a name. Although they look petite, Pekingese are quite strong, muscular, and stocky. When naming your new Peke, keep all these personality and physical traits in mind if you want to choose a name that fits them perfectly.

They also roll off your tongue easily (with a couple of exceptions), which is helpful as you’ll probably be saying your Peke’s name a lot in the next few weeks!
