Pico Names

One of the things I love doing is naming things. Whether it’s for products, or things that I encounter daily, it’s a habit.

Fifteen years ago, I started a list for our new dog, Pico. My wife and other family members joined in on the fun. Last December, we updated the note for the last time.

I’ve shared this list over the years and everyone gets a kick out of it, but the main reason I’m putting it up here is so I have a place to remember all the good times we had together.

The names are in chronological order, the photos are not.
