A Redditor with the account u/deadpoetsunite shared the funny story about how her puppy got the name and ended up making the internet burst out laughing.
A few years ago, the poster found a little dog on the road, so she intended to keep her while trying to look for the owner. She called the dog “pup” and brought her along when she traveled around the gas stations in the small town with flyers. Then one day, a cute 6-year-old girl at the station asked the poster to pat the dog.

The little girl wanted to know the dog’s name, but she received the answer “ask her” after asking the owner. Unfortunately, the girl mistook the joke for a serious reply, so she grinned honestly at the Redditor and complimented that strange “name”.

As the poster did not plan to adopt the dog, she continued keeping the name “Asker” for several days. Surprisingly, this supposedly temporary nickname has been attached to the dog for four years until now.

The poster admitted that the confusing name brought hilarious responses from others, and she almost always had to explain it the second time. Therefore, she advised potential pet parents to think twice when naming their pets if they do not want to regret it in the hindsight.
It seemed like funny reasons for pets’ names as this story was not typical. Many netizens also shared weird pet nicknames, which either came from an accident or a funny joke. Sometimes, animals' real names tended to be replaced by unusual but more suitable nicknames.
