Help me name my goats


Last weekend I acquired a pair of male 3 month old Nigerian Dwarf goats. The white one is really friendly, the brown one not so much. I can’t come up with good names for them. Suggestions?

The white friendly one I’d name Caspar aka Caspar the friendly ghost.

So cute! Get a box of ginger snap cookies or animal crackers and they will be your besties for life.

I like the Casper name above.

You could have Casper and Jasper.

They love graham crackers! The white one eats pieces enthusiastically out of my hand, but I have to toss pieces to the brown one.

Marshmallow and Smores?

So cute. I am no good with names. Last year I was live streaming volcanoes on YouTube. Well, most of the volcanoes are being quiet now so this year…I have been watching baby goats.
Stinking cute. I wouldn’t want one but their hopping and antics are quite entertaining.

Enjoy your new charges.

Mind love popcorn, but one isn’t too keen if there is alot of artificial butter flavor.

My goaties have been Pigweed and Thistle, on the premise that they were to eliminate those things from my pasture. Didn’t work that way but Pigweed was an awesome name for that goat lol other goats were Grizzy and Blare. Give it some time and you will get to know their personalities and something will pop up. They have so much personality it’s fun to give them names that fit. I’m ready for more goats now and just watching for the right ones… jealous you already have yours! Mine loved craisins and fig newtons and Mike’s Hard Lemonade… Pigweed would drink it out of a straw or the bottle if I gave him a drink. He was so fun, I still miss his destructive loveable self.

There you are. Perfect names for those 2. Be advised that goats usually live up to their names…
You are in for some fun.

I love giving my goaties old fashioned names.

My goats’ names are Oliver and Lila.
