How the Pig Name Generator works
This pig name generator gives names for pet pigs, micro pigs and farm pigs: puns such as Kevin Bacon and Pigasso, classic names such as Wilbur, Babe and Napoleon, food names such as Truffle and Pork Chop, and grand titles such as Lord Snoutington of the Sty.
What the pig name generator suggests
Pigs have a strong literary tradition: Wilbur from Charlotte's Web, Babe, Napoleon and Snowball from Animal Farm, and the Empress of Blandings, the prize sow in P. G. Wodehouse. Puns are the most popular choice, and pig owners love swapping ham, pig and swine into celebrity names. Darkly comic food names such as Pork Chop and Bacon Bits are a farmyard joke that some owners love and others avoid.
Naming a pet pig
Pigs are intelligent, often compared to dogs, and learn their names quickly, coming when called and even learning tricks. A pot-bellied or so-called micro pig can live fifteen to twenty years and often grows much larger than buyers expect, so a grand name like Lady Truffleworth may suit it better in time than Piglet.
