Not technically a nn but I figured out on accident that our dog [name_f]Sophia[/name_f] responds equally to “tortilla”. Lol

[name_u]Ruby[/name_u] is our dog’s name, but we exclusively call her Jorf. There’s absolutely zero reason. We just do! All the time! :rofl:

I’ve totally found this with my dog! As long as the vowels are similar and in the same place, it seems… out dog responded equally well to her name (Ruby) and other names (Lucy, Trudy) of the same pattern!
