Rename Animals & Pets

52 votes

I would like the ability to rename my cats, dogs, goats, and other animals. It's a simple thing, but very immerse and rpg like.

Thank you!!! I just tamed my first yaks and finding out that I can't name them was devastating 🥺

I love that the dogs and cats come pre-named, I don't want to change that at all. But it would be really cool if we could also name the goats, yaks, birds, armadillos.

Advantages: Super cute. Could distinguish the initial animals we tame from the ones bred later. Could designate certain animals to keep while slaughtering others for food/resources. Probably more too.
Drawbacks: None that I can think of. :)

Pets and their names are a very personal thing for pet parents, often correlating to real life pets present and past. Not having 'naming' code in place for the initial launch of a pets feature is kind of mind blowing.
