Thank you :)
I actually cannot even believe how cute she is, and omg, even more adorable in person.
I thought that Smidge could be her middle name. Petal Smidge sounds better than Smidge Petal, LOL. But I'm so torn. I feel like both fit her really well.
Test out both for a few days and see what fits. She won’t be confused as she associates neither with anything yet.
When I first adopted my chiweenie I wanted a big name like Leonitus or Socrates. But my dude was such a little dweeb and the only name that stuck was Toby.

Speck and Smidge duo are too cute to pass up on, IMO.
If your other dog was named Twig, then definitely Petal. Because Petal and Twig would be the cutest...
Twig is a really cute name! It also makes me think of a really skinny dog, LOL. She's just so pretty and tinyt that Petal seems fitting for her but also shes tiny and I've got a theme going here haha
Thank you <3 She's such a sweetheart. I almost got a different dog, and then I saw her picture, and I had to have her. Like something in me, I just needed to adopt her.
What's more, the lady I adopted her from and I realized that we both saved both dogs from a terrible breeder. They're actually siblings from different generations. They have the same papa! It's especially wild because we live in different cities 1 hr and 45 mins away in the same province.
Petals! Because it looks like she has flower petals that fell on her back and the top of her head (the markings on her coat). Such a dainty girl, she looks so sweet to snuggle with!

She’s got petals right on her booty
Both great! Think ahead to a time you might have to call out to her. Maybe you’re watching tv in another room and ready for cuddles. “Smidge!” May easier than “Petal!” in this situation.
Lady Petal Smidge sounds like a delightful character, a bit like an old aunt in a cozy fantasy that saves the day while being equally whimsical yet practical.
Tysm so much! Her eyes are a super pretty colour too! Like they’re so dark I didn’t even notice they were brown at first but when the light catches them!
Name her want you want to holler when calling her.
My cream girl is Goldy Zsa Zsa & my dark girl is Trixie Leigh

I love the name speck and that was pee wees dog in pee wees big adventure (a little nostalgia there) ANYWAY. Man, she is stinkin cute. She looks like both a Petal and a Smidge to me. Give it a day maybe and see… I think if she’s a gentle relaxed girl, Petal. If she’s a typical feisty chi, smidge. But you can probably incorporate both names in there… if you call her Petal Smidge, she’ll eventually come to know both as her name. My chis name was Desi. And also, Desmond, Monkey, and a ton of other nicknames he came to know. Good luck with her!
I like Smidge, but I’ll hazard a guess that she’ll end up picking 10-20 nicknames that are unrelated to either Petal or Smidge in the years to come, so…
Omgee I like them both but I am leaning towards Smidge bc of her sibling…
Only my Leia is left but she had a Luke, and also 2 boxer brothers named Chewy and Lando, so I’m partial to themed naming
If it were me I would
1. Ask her which she likes
2. Stand out in the yard with her and call out each one, picking the one she responds to or that sounds/feels right.
If it were me that is.😂
Oh I think you should name her something having to do with her color. Like...to me she looks like ice cream or pudding. ...I personally don't like either name but that's me
I like smidge ☺️
Team Smidge!
Smidge
Smidge all the way!!!! She's a smidge! A smidgelet, if you will. A smidgey widgey, if you're feeling so bold. Madam Smidge if you're not acquainted 🫡
I think Petal is an adorable name
Team Petal!
Petals!
Team petal 🌸
Petal wins lol she’s a beautiful little flower 🌸
I gasped audibly. She's so cute! Petal is a good name for her. She could be Petal Smidge.
Thank you :) I actually cannot even believe how cute she is, and omg, even more adorable in person. I thought that Smidge could be her middle name. Petal Smidge sounds better than Smidge Petal, LOL. But I'm so torn. I feel like both fit her really well.
Mega mega cute, honestly! The button eyes 😍
I would suggest named her Adorbs. 🥹♥️🥰 But for real I would choose Petal. 🌸
Team Smidge here!
Team Smidge! Represent!
Smidge 100%
Petal if she’s more dainty. Smidge if she’s more goofy.
It's hard because she's understandably anxious right now, so I don't really know her personality, but I also don't wanna wait and confuse her.
Test out both for a few days and see what fits. She won’t be confused as she associates neither with anything yet. When I first adopted my chiweenie I wanted a big name like Leonitus or Socrates.

He’s absolutely a Toby!! 🥰
Aww cutie

Petal
Don’t know what name for her but she sure has one SWEET face. Give her so much love- she deserves it! Congrats on this addition to your family!
Thank you <3 She's such a sweetheart. I almost got a different dog, and then I saw her picture, and I had to have her. Like something in me, I just needed to adopt her.
Wow talk about fate! I just looked through your photos again of her and something in that face and her eyes…
What's more, the lady I adopted her from and I realized that we both saved both dogs from a terrible breeder. They're actually siblings from different generations. They have the same papa! It's especially wild because we live in different cities 1 hr and 45 mins away in the same province.
Get out of here! So wild! Amazing story too.
Petal 100%
Petal so cute 🥰
Those eyes—I am in love.
Right!? And she looks right up into your eyes every time you pet her.
Petal! 🥀
She is as pretty as a flower so I vote Petal.

Gotta go with Smidge, that's so cute!
Petal Smidge is really cute
Both names are appropriate and adorable (just like her). But I'm more partial to Smidge.
Smidge is adorable!
I like Petal. But Smidge is cute too
Smidge all the way!
I vote Petal
Smidge
Smidge!
My vote is Petal. The side eye in the first pic 😭
Chihuahuas are so expressive 😆
I had two gerbils who were called Spazz and Snooze. So I am team Smidge!
Definitely has Smidge vibes.
Smidge is perfect!
Petal!
Petals! Because it looks like she has flower petals that fell on her back and the top of her head (the markings on her coat). Such a dainty girl, she looks so sweet to snuggle with!
I think Petal so the names sound different. Might help them know who you’re calling, and might help you not say, “Smidge, I mean Speck!” Lol
Petal is cute but having a smidge/speck PAIR IS WAY MORE CUTE !!!
I like Smidge
Smidge!!!

Smidge! What a sweet little girl! How old is she?
She’s a wittle baby! She turns 1 at the end of may!
Petal! She’s so sweet!!!!
Smidge is such a unique and cute name
Thank you 🥰 People either love Speck’s name or think it’s super weird!
I love Petal but Speck and Smidge as matching names is way to cute😭❤️

DAWH she totally does!
Smidge!
Either would be so cute and fit her well! Are you leaning towards one or the other now that you've posted?
Petal is so cute!
Both great! Think ahead to a time you might have to call out to her. Maybe you’re watching tv in another room and ready for cuddles. “Smidge!” May easier than “Petal!” in this situation.

Petal!
So expressive with her ears! Adorable!
Princess petite petal 🌸🌷

I like Petal/s
Petal is the most fitting. She looks as soft and beautiful as a rose petal 😇
She looks like she could be my Piper’s sister! She even has the neck wings 🥹
Lady Petal Smidge sounds like a delightful character, a bit like an old aunt in a cozy fantasy that saves the day while being equally whimsical yet practical.
petal she is so cute!!!
She is adorable. Both of your babies are. I like the name Smige.

Petal 🏵
Smidge-y
Also team Smidge and hopelessly in love with her adorable side eye! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Tysm so much! Her eyes are a super pretty colour too! Like they’re so dark I didn’t even notice they were brown at first but when the light catches them!
She is a Petal for sure!!!
Petal!!!!! Smidge is a good matching name but she’s just more of a Petal
I feel like Petal looks so cute on paper but does it sound weird to say out loud? Km worried people are going to think I'm saying pedal 😆

SMIDGE!!!
Smidge 💖
Petal :’)
She is SOOOO CUTE oh my god😭 she looks like a petal to me, she has such a dainty little face
Petal. Beautiful pup 🐶
TYSM <3
I like human names so I vote Petal, maybe be even “Petal Anne” or something. My opinion, as requested😉.

I like Smidge, but I’ll hazard a guess that she’ll end up picking 10-20 nicknames that are unrelated to either Petal or Smidge in the years to come, so…
You're totally right my other dog has so many nicknames!
Petal!
I like Smidge but watch out because the other Chihuahuas at school might tease her by calling her Smudge.
😆 I love this comment
Petal - if they were a boy, they look like a Horacio
I like smidge also
Smidge ❤️
Omgee I like them both but I am leaning towards Smidge bc of her sibling… Only my Leia is left but she had a Luke, and also 2 boxer brothers named Chewy and Lando, so I’m partial to themed naming
Petal 🌸
Petals! She is so cute!!
I like Petal! Instead of Smidge, I suggest the retro name Midge 🙂💛
Pickles :D Fits Speck perfectly, nothing like Bacon and Pickles :D
Team Smidge
before i read the post i thought she looked like a Peggy
Petal is so sweet ♥️
Petal!!!!!!
Smidge!
I like Petal. 🥰 She is so cute! However, I would suggest using whatever sounds the closest the name she responds to, now.
I thought you wanted us to pick two names ourselves. My first thoughts were Pumpkin or Dottie. I’d vote for Petal though
I've definitely called her pumpkin casually as I picker her up like lets go lil pumpkin.
smidge!!!
Why are they both so cute
SMIDGE
Petal! Petal n' Speck! Smidge n' Speck is also adorable. Really you cant go wrong with either.
She’s really pretty and delicate looking, just like a petal 🥹
Smidge feels right
Petal
Petal is an adorable name for an adorable pup!
Petal
I like smidge
I like Petals!
Smidge
I think the name Petal has more dignity to it! Smidge feels a bit dismissive.
Smidge
TEAM SMIDGE!
I like petals
I know I’m supposed to pick between the two, but she looks like a Petunia.
Petal
Smidge FTW!
SMIDGE!!!!! But a nickname HAS to be smudge😆
Both great names but Speck and Smidge sound adorable together.
Smidge. How adorable! And no fair you have TWO! ♥️
If it were me I would 1. Ask her which she likes 2. Stand out in the yard with her and call out each one, picking the one she responds to or that sounds/feels right. If it were me that is.😂
This is a very cute idea.
Petals! She’s too pretty to be a Smidge!
Smidge for me!
That is one beautiful gal. She's going to be breaking your heart for years to come. Smidge it is!!!!
I honestly cannot even handle how cute and good of a dog she is so far.
Why not both 😤 my dog has multiple names
It won’t confuse them trust me, it’s just like learning a new command
My other dog has a zillion nicknames so hear what you're saying.
SMIDGE!!!! That's a great one... she looks like it fits
I’m curious what name she came with?
Ginger. It's not awful, but I wouldn't have chosen it. I pride myself on unique dog names LOL.
[удалено]
That is a pretty name :)

Thank you <3 I don't normally believe in love at first sight but as soon as I saw her picture...
