How to choose a cool name for a girl's hamster

Choosing a name for a pet, no matter who it is, is subject to general rules. There are few of them, but they are fundamental.

The name should be short, sonorous and easy to pronounce.

The nickname should be no more than two syllables. It is unlikely that you will be able to pronounce “Capitolina” or “Marmalade” quickly and several times in a row - the language will get confused. This will be especially difficult for a child. But hamsters are usually purchased specifically for children.

For the same reasons, sounds that are difficult to pronounce - growling and hissing - are excluded from the nickname. It is especially difficult for a child to pronounce “r” in a closed syllable - Kristya, Kralya, Marmeladka, Antratsita

It is very desirable that the nickname be sonorous, with some characteristic sound that attracts attention. This will help the pet quickly remember its name - Fifa, Zhuzha, Zina, Chucha.

The nickname should emphasize the character and appearance of the pet.

To someone else's eye, it seems that all hamsters look alike. But the owner knows that this is not so and tries to emphasize the characteristics of his pet with his nickname: Snowball, Marshmallow, Ryzhulka, Liska.

A lazy, well-fed hamster girl should not be called Yula or Maya, and a nimble, lively girl should not be called Sonya or Bun

It is better to give an original and cool nickname.

Let's make a reservation that in pursuit of a cool and unusual nickname, the main thing is not to overdo it and choose a name that sounds decent, does not offend the hearing of the household and is not a mockery of the pet itself.

Advice: if you get a couple of hamsters, then you need to give them radically different names, so that you yourself don’t get confused later about where Sonya is and where Zasonya is.

There are several principles for finding an interesting and cool name for a girl’s hamster:

By the first letter. For example, I really want the girl’s hamster to have a name starting with the letter “A”, like her owner’s. For these purposes, open a spelling dictionary or a dictionary of names and select the appropriate word - Alya, Amelie, Asya, Aqua, Aria;
Animal observation. The hamster can make characteristic sounds, or move its nose funny, or funny move its paws. Similar features often form the basis of nicknames - Shusha, Kuksya, Yuzi;
According to taste preferences. Hamsters are known to love to eat. Food addictions can lead to a good idea - Melon, Vanilla, Kroshka, Pistachio;
Names of idols and stars, cartoon characters, literary characters. Often, “overseas” names are chosen for these purposes - Jolie, Adele, Lolita, Jessie, Barbie, Winx, Peppa.

Original English names

You can choose a suitable English word for your girl. You just need to pay attention to its meaning - the nickname of a hamster should not “offend the feelings” of the animal, even such a small one. We offer several suitable options (sounding in the Russian way):

How to accustom your pet to a name

The principle of teaching a hamster a name is the same as teaching it to hands. The process consists of 5 stages.

Wash your hands to remove foreign, strong odors and thereby not scare off the animal. You can rub your hands with cage filler so that the smell is familiar and inspires trust.
Take a treat in your hand - seeds, dried fruits or pieces of fresh apple, pear.
Bring your hand with the treat to the cage and move it up and down so that the hamster smells it and recognizes the treat.
When the hamster approaches your hand, you need to say his name clearly, slowly and several times. Let him eat the treat while listening to his name.
Repeat this several times, each time moving your hand with the treat further away from the hamster.

Note: hamsters, especially dwarf breeds, have poor eyesight and perceive external movements as a signal of danger and a threat. The animal may not react the way a person would like - to run away or bite, so the movement of the hand should be smooth and unhurried.

If you do everything correctly and do not force events, then very soon the hamster will come to your hand when called, both with and without a treat.

Djungarians get used to both hands and nicknames faster than other breeds of hamsters. But cubs are better trained than adult animals.

Hamsters are intelligent and peaceful creatures. With their appearance in the house, joy increases and the degree of positive emotions increases. The pet's name serves as an effective tool in this process. Bright, sonorous, affectionate, it will cause a smile every time the funny little animal hurries to the call, sparkling with beady eyes and moving its antennae funny.

Nicknames for lazy people

Some hamsters - in most cases these are Syrians - on the contrary, like to lie down or calmly move through the tunnels equipped for them. In this case, one of these nicknames would be more appropriate:

Lenivka;
Mirusha;
Tenderness;
Shy;
Sonya;
Sopka;
Tisha;
Umka (meaning “clever girl”).

Mirusha is never bored

Name selection

It is believed that rodents respond more readily to ringing and hissing sounds. Good nicknames for them should contain the consonants L, M, N, R, Sh, Sh. In this case, the animal’s name can reflect characteristic behavioral traits or other features.

By color

The most popular nicknames are related to the color of the animals. For example, nicknames such as Umka, Snezhka, Snowflake, Marshmallow, and Fluff are perfect for a white rodent.

For hamsters with a red color, the names Ryzhik, Carrot, Sunny, Mandarin, and Ray are appropriate.

Black pets are called Black, Fog, Nochenka, Ugolek.

By behavior

Many owners observe their pets and determine their preferences, after which they select nicknames for the animals:

If your pet cannot tear himself away from food, you can name him Krepysh, Zhorik, Kolobok, Pyshechka.
For a hamster that is not easy to wake up, the names Sonya, Sonya, Dream, Dremka are appropriate.
Suitable nicknames for active pets are Shustrik, Bystrik, Bee, Race, Diesel.
Calm rodents that love to bask in the hands of their owner are called Nezhenka, Masya, Laska, Mila.

By gender

The easiest way to name a hamster is based on its gender. For example, popular female names for them are Khoma, Asya, Mila. Boy hamsters are called Khomik, Bob, Zhorik.

Geographical nicknames based on habitat

Hamsters inhabit a vast territory, and therefore you can remember where they come from. Examples:

As a result, farmers' households will suffer greatly.
