/u/cranberry94 on She wants the dog’s name changed since she will be having a girl and would like to give the baby same name.

Wait 5 sec.

And then you have me - the opposite. I like my dog, and her name so much, I seriously contemplated if it would acceptable to name my daughter after her… Realized that would be too confusing and then thought “middle name?” … but then there was some (thinly veiled) disappointment from a few who thought it a bit insulting that the golden retriever would get an honorific over a human family member.
