This is where a human character and an animal companion share a name for some reason. This can work one of two ways: "We Named the Monkey Jack": The animal was named after its human counterpart, either to honor a fallen comrade or (more likely) as a subtle Take That! against an enemy. "We Named the Dog Indiana": The human was named from the animal or takes a nickname (or false identity) from the name given to a beloved pet or other animal companion. No relation to the monkey named Jack in What Did Jack Do?. Compare with Pet's Homage Name, when the pet is named after someone the owner doesn't know personally. |

According to Malevil, this is a tradition in rural France. Since The French Revolution, ranchers have named their livestock with nobility titles as a generation-spanning Take That! against their distant ancestors' oppressors. Namely at Malevil, there is a Baronne, Comtesse, Marquise, and Princesse. | |

On Over the Garden Wall, Greg carries around a frog that he gives several names, including Wirt Jr. (after his brother) and George Washington. In the final episode, he decides that the "perfect frog name" is Jason Funderburker, the name of Wirt's romantic rival, who actually seems honored. Interestingly, Word of God says that the names are spelled differently (the human is Jason Funderberker, with three "e"s instead of a second "u"). | |

In Star Ocean: The Second Story, Claude makes an offhand mention about having a pet dog named Roddick. It's likely that Claude's father Ronyx named him after the hero of Star Ocean who Ronyx became good friends with. And, apparently, because both Roddicks had the same fluffy tail. | |

Frequently happens when a new species is discovered, such as when Gary Larson had a newly-found breed of parasitic louse named after him. It was meant as a compliment (as he stated in one of his books, he knew no one was going to name a new species of swan after him). Sir David Attenborough has a species of echidna named after him, as well as a plesiosaur genus. Charles Darwin has a moth and a prehistoric lemur named after him. Sir Terry Pratchett has an extinct sea turtle named for him. A very large one, naturally. Martin and Chris Kratt have a praying mantis named for them: an honor they celebrated with a Wild Kratts episode, complete with a cameo by the entomologist that chose the name. |

In Empire from the Ashes the Emperor and Empress's second son is named Horus Gaheris MacIntyre with his middle name coming from one of the Imperial family's dogs. Although in this case the dogs in question are genetically engineered to have human-level intelligence and Gaheris was severely injured saving the Empress from an assassination attempt shortly before the son was born, making this more a case of naming a child after a close friend rather than a pet. | |

In the Charlie Parker Series, Parker names his dog Walter after NYPD friend Walter Cole, although his reasons are unclear and it seems likely that the author never actually intended this trope, but simply forgot when naming the dog that he already had a character named Walter. The trope still applies retroactively, however, and Walter Cole is never particularly pleased about having a dog named after him. | |

One of Wilson's exes in House owned a dog with him that constantly peed on their rug; she blamed House for wrecking their relationship and subsequently named the dog Hector because "Hector Does Go Rug" was an anagram of "Doctor Greg House". House thought that connection was tenuous at best too. | |

Doctor Who Expanded Universe New Series Adventures: In the novel The Last Dodo, the Doctor names the titular bird Dorothea. He doesn't explain why, but Dorothea Chaplet was a former companion, usually called "Dodo". In the novel At Childhood's End, Dorothy McShane, formerly known as Ace, has a cat named Sorin, presumably after Captain Sorin from "The Curse of Fenric". |

In Scott Pilgrim, Ramona has a cat that shares the name Gideon with her most recent ex-boyfriend. It is a source of much speculation why the cat is named thus, especially due to all the Magical Realism of the story. Turns out, it was just her way of getting over breaking up with him. | |

In a Hakuouki drama CD, Okita takes in a stray cat and, because he's a troll, names it "Toshizo" after the Shinsengumi's vice-commander Hijikata Toshizo. Comedy ensues when Kondou overhears Okita, Nagakura, and Saito discussing the feline Toshizo's penchant for stealing food, sneaking into people's beds, and siring children around the neighborhood; the misunderstanding that results is not helped by the fact that Saito can't bring himself to use Hijikata's given name even to address a cat, and instead calls the cat "Vice-Commander" as well. | |

She is named Maomao, which does not please the main character whose name is also Maomao. To note, the characters and tones for their names are different, Maomao the cat is written with 毛毛 and uses the second tone (Máomáo) while Maomao the human's is 貓貓 and is said with the first tone (M�om�o), but it's still pretty similar. | |

Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Scully regularly makes references to someone who lives with him named Kelly, but his descriptions are so confused, contradictory, and vague that nobody in the precinct can figure out if Kelly is his wife or his pet dog. In season seven, it's finally revealed that this trope is the source of the confusion; there are two Kellys, one being his ex-wife and the other a dog he adopted and named after said ex-wife when she left him. | |

In the Smallville episode "Krypto," Lois Lane spends much of the episode referring to the dog as "Clarky" because, as she says, "he's annoying and I can't seem to get within ten feet of him without getting sick" which was, of course, actually a dig at Clark. She later suggests that Clark change his name to avoid confusion. | |

In Cerebus the Aardvark, Cerebus becomes a shepherd and names one of the sheep "Elrod". It is unclear whether he's doing it because the sheep annoys him as Elrod used to, or if (after all these years) he misses Elrod (as well as his other old acquaintances). Outliving everyone you knew can have that effect on you. | |

Indiana Jones: Henry Jones Jr. so disliked being named for his father that he used the nickname Indiana for most of his adult life. As revealed in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, this was the name of the family dog. The decision to ditch his father's (who that last line implies he doesn't have many "fond memories" of) name in favor of the name of his beloved childhood pet tells the audience just what kind of childhood he had. It's a major turning point in their relationship when Henry Sr. finally calls his son Indiana rather than treating him like Generation Xerox. Indiana was actually the name of George Lucas' dog (who was also the inspiration for Chewbacca). And following the line, the other two protagonists of The Temple of Doom were named after dogs, Willie (Steven Spielberg's) and Short Round (screenwriters Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz). Played with in The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull with Mutt Williams, who is named not after a dog but after a synonym for "dog". In the Graphic Novel, Marcus says his family had a cat named Marcus before he was born, and Elsa, if she survived the Grail Temple sequence, says she thinks her father had a secretary named Elsa. |

NCIS: S2 Ep15, "Caught On Tape": Kate names the dog of the killer, Tony, even though it's a girl. This leads to a humorous scene where Tony is listening in on Kate and Abby talking about whether Tony likes them, how cute Tony is, and how maybe they could share Tony. He probably brought this on himself by claiming in S2 Ep10, "Chained", to be looking for his dog, a mangy Shih-Tzu named Kate. S5 Ep13, "Dog Tags" has Abby running tests on a military police dog, who she names Jethro. Later on we learn that DiNozzo owns two goldfish, which he named Kate and Ziva. |

Unintentional example: In The Wheel of Time, main character Perrin meets a girl who has run away from her privileged lifestyle to become an adventurer but is having trouble deciding on a name. At first, she introduces herself as "Mandarb," an Old Tongue word meaning "blade," and Perrin laughingly points out that one of the horses in his group has the same name. She then decides that Faile, meaning Falcon, would also be a cool name. Which becomes a Meaningful Name due to an earlier prophecy, and any appearance in subsequent prophecies. | |

Nanami the cow from Revolutionary Girl Utena. Not only does Anthy name a cow Nanami, in the episode "Cowbell of Happiness", Nanami the human turns into a cow. It's that kind of series. She later names a chicken Nanami, as well. It's strongly implied that all Nanami's animal-related issues are a result of Anthy's passive-aggressive retribution for her cruel prank in episode 3. She is a witch, after all. |

In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, a family on Outset Island names their pet pig after Link. A variant occurred earlier in Ocarina of Time (which may overlap with Dead Guy Junior depending on how you look at it). Darunia ends up naming his son after "The Legendary Dodongo Buster", so he's known as "Hello, [Insert Name Here] of the Gorons." Also occurs in Twilight Princess, where the cat owned by Beth's family shares Link's name. This makes no sense until you remember the hilarious schoolgirl crush that Beth has for Link. |

Aragorn's horse Brego in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is apparently named after an earlier king of Rohan. Aragorn acknowledges this in a scene from the extended edition, commenting that the horse has "a kingly name". Given how much Rohan values horses this is likely intended as an honor for both horse and King. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh!: In the dub of the original Yu-Gi-Oh!, Mana's bird is named Anzu, referencing the Japanese name of Tea Gardner. The bird is unnamed in the Japanese version. Used for a dub-only Continuity Nod in the English dub of Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: Judai and co. meet a trained dueling monkey named Wheeler; in the original series dub, Joey Wheeler was frequently called (as an insult) "a dueling monkey." A non-pet variant: the duel school created by Seto Kaiba is divided into three dorms named after the ancient Egyptian cards: the opulent Obelisk Blue, Ra Yellow, and the lowest, the run-down Osiris Red. The reason behind the hierarchy? He had the Obelisk card. His rival Yugi had the Osiris card. |

So it is played with, but they end up calling it Sampras, a Pet's Homage Name to Pete Sampras. Dougal gives his logic in this as "the obvious rabbits-tennis connection." | |

In 7 Seeds, Takahiro Aramaki is left as the Sole Survivor of his team, alone except for two puppies, which he naturally names after his two dead friends, Mitsuru and Fubuki. The dogs and their descendants are his only company for the next fifteen years, and he associates them strongly with their dead namesakes. After the rest of the teams have emerged from cryostasis, he tells Ayu that he regretted choosing the names almost immediately, because he knew he would probably outlive them again. | |

Yoite from Nabari no Ou has the same name as a cat Yukimi used to have. Strangely, this is later inverted when Yukimi gets another cat after Yoite dies and, unconsciously influenced by the traces of his memories of Yoite(the person, not the first cat), names it Yoite. And in the end it's subverted when everyone regains their memories of Yoite and Yukimi renames the cat "Yoi". | |

In All Cheerleaders Die, Leena names her new kitten 'Princess Madeline' after her crush/ex. Maddy is less than impressed (and more than a little squicked out) by this turn of events. Even Leena admits its pathetic. | |

As mentioned in Hamilton, Martha Washington had a feral tomcat she named after Alexander Hamilton. The play implies it's because he's reliable with the LADIES but historians disagree. Her husband, meanwhile, had a greyhound named Cornwallis after Charles Cornwallis, whom he'd defeated at the Siege of Yorktown. |

When he learned Victor owned a poodle, he got one himself and named the dog after Victor, though the dog is usually referred to as "Vicchan". Vicchan's death from old age greatly affects Yuri, enough that it causes him to flub his routine at the Sochi Grand Prix Finals. | |

In Rocky Mountain, Capt. Lafe Barstow asks Jimmy Wheat why the initial on his sign-up papers was 'B'. Jimmy explains that his actual first name is 'Buck'. He then explains that his uncle had a pair of wagon mules and promised to give his father whichever one he named the child after, and his father chose the one named Buck. Barstow remarks that he probably wishes his father had chosen the other one, but Jimmy says no, because the other one was named Sally. | |

Doctor Who: In "Rise of the Cybermen", the Doctor, Rose, and Mickey travel to a parallel universe, where Rose's father is alive and still married to Jackie. They don't have a daughter but instead have a Yorkshire Terrier named Rose. Rose is deeply upset, while the Doctor has a hard time hiding his amusement. In "The Girl Who Waited", Amy, trapped in the Two Streams facility for thirty-six years, gets a Companion Cube robot that she has literally disarmed and painted a smiley-face on for company, and names it Rory. It's initially taken as a sign of how emotionally distant to Rory she now is, she doesn't address him by name. Later however when Old Amy talks to Young Amy, Young Amy points out/reminds her why she named it Rory, instead of "the Doctor" or after her favorite cat. It's because Rory is the love of her life. |

Of course, in the Japanese version, the cat's name is Gally instead. Either way, part of the reason she's not happy about it is that the cat was male. | |

Roy the mule is probably meant to be a joke, as his wife named their other mule after Nellie Oleson, her childhood rival, but the colt was named "Royal" because he'll be the crown prince of the Wilders' livestock, just like Almanzo's brother was the crown prince of their family. | |

Subverted in Wolf's Rain. After feeding a stray dog, a girl named Leara meets a boy who says the dog's called Toboe. She's confused when he later calls himself Toboe. He claims this is because he and the dog are so alike. It's probably not spoileriffic to reveal that the dog is actually a wolf and that the boy and wolf share the same name because they are one and the same. When Leara finds out the truth she freaks out, to his dismay. | |

After seeing how well the lamb hides its successful malicious emotional power-plays under a cutesy face (and having some admirable willpower). Erin names the lamb after a similarly manipulative and determined ghost she met, Queen Nerrhavia. "Nerry" is shown to love her new name. | |

In Tales of the Abyss, Emperor Peony named his rappigs with the name of people from his childhood (bar Luke). Hilariously, Saphir, which is Dist's real name, is the name of the stupid one. Also, the one named for Jade's sister Nephry (whom Peony has a crush on) has the nicest collar. Jade is not amused. |

In Frasier, Niles and Frasier discover their late mother's journal with numerous references (apparently) to them and their problems. After spending the episode angsting over the implications, they discover that they've been reading her lab journal from before their birth. "Niles" and "Frasier" were her experimental rats. At first, they're relieved, but then it dawns on them... | |

Pokémon Journeys: The Series: Lillie and Gladion's Disappeared Dad, Mohn, had been living with a shiny Nihilego who rescued him when he was trapped in the Ultra Wormhole. For a long time he believed that the Nihilego was his daughter Lillie, and thus named it such. When he's finally reunited with his children and wife, he regains his memories, and they decide to welcome the Nihilego into the family (with Gladion catching it) and with the name Lillie as well. | |
