Meaning & Story
Frog is the common English word for the amphibious creature, from Old English 'frogga.' As a pet name it is playfully unexpected — either referencing an actual pet frog, or given to a pet with bulging eyes, long legs, or a particular fondness for sitting very still in an oddly positioned squat.
Frog is a name that requires exactly zero explanation for the right pet. It's wonderfully literal and wonderfully absurd simultaneously. Perfect for an actual frog or amphibian, but equally perfect for a Pug or Bulldog with those wonderful bulging eyes, or a cat who sits in a perfect frog-squat on warm surfaces. Honest, funny, and impossible to forget.
