Introduction

Video games are an increasingly popular source of names for pets - especially for dogs, whose unique personalities often make them akin to characters all their own. Games are great sources for name brainstorming: video game creators spend large amounts of time developing characters, and thus their names and personalities are usually quite fleshed out. Banjo-Kazooie is one such game. In fact, the Banjo-Kazooie game series has become so extensive that fans might even say it has its own universe. Dog owners might turn to the game for inspiration because of its unique characters and their memorable names.

Banjo-Kazooie Dog Name Considerations

When choosing names from the Banjo-Kazooie universe, the first thing to consider is the fact that you are choosing a name from a fictional video game - for this reason, not many people will understand the name’s reference point. You may get some recognition for choosing one of the main characters’ names, such as Banjo or Kazooie, but most of the other characters will not be known to those who have never played the game series.

Another consideration to think over when choosing a name from Banjo-Kazooie is that the names are not exactly “normal” dog names. This is by no means a bad thing - in fact, it gives your dog the chance to be more interesting than a dog with a more common name - but it does mean some people may not understand why you would name your dog as such. 

Finally, naming your dog after a character means you will always associate your dog with that specific character. While some people may find it entertaining to associate their dog with a wicked witch or an evil skull-man, others may find this distracting in understanding their dog’s true personality that lies behind this fictional association.
