Proper British Names For Your Proper British Pet

Top of the morning to you, mate, we heard you wanted to give your pet a proper British name. Obviously here at ICanHas Cheezburger we like nothing more than helping others find names for their awwdorable pets. In fact, we've been known to be pretty creative with the names we give our pets. Don't take our word for it, just ask all of the bunnies we named recently. 

We love giving our pets the most ridiculous names, but it's also important that they suit the animal, which is why we've provided this lovely list, complete with photos of what sort of dogs and cats fit the bill. After all, there's basically nothing more funny than calling your dog by yelling "Sir Tuffington, come!" It's perfect. And apparently, Twitter users are asking for help naming their pets. Of course, we just has to share our personal favorite names with you.

    We're starting with a classic name. One that evokes royalty, palaces, and a little bit of splendor. This pawdorable corgi clearly enjoys the lavish life, I mean look at the couch where he's sitting. Although we pictured Windsor being a name for a male pet, it could definitely work for a female pet as well. So use it to your heart's delight!
