Ball

An English word name referring to a round object — given with affectionate, playful irony to a round, bouncy, or ball-obsessed pet.

Ball is the ultimate inside joke of pet names — it is ironic, it is simple, and it is absolutely perfect for a dog who is completely, utterly obsessed with the concept of fetch. It might also be a nod to a perfectly round, plump little pet who resembles the object in question. Whatever the origin, a dog named Ball is guaranteed to be the most fetch-ready athlete at any park.
