Tay

A short, versatile name that works as a standalone given name or as a modern diminutive of Taylor or Taylah.

Tay has the breezy confidence of a name that needs no explanation. It's clean, modern, and comfortable in any setting — equally at home on a rangy farm dog or a sleek city apartment cat. Some owners may be nodding to Taylor Swift, whose nickname Tay has become embedded in pop culture, but the name stands perfectly well on its own merits. It suits a male pet with an easy, likable personality.
