How It All Started

Scout didn't set out to become the world's foremost expert in pet naming. He just noticed a problem that nobody else seemed to be solving.

Every day he watched new pets arrive in homes all over the neighborhood, and every day he watched their owners struggle with the same question -- what do we call them? They'd settle for something generic, something that could have belonged to any pet anywhere. Max. Bella. Buddy. Fine names, all of them. But not the right names.

Scout believed that every pet has a name that is uniquely, perfectly theirs. A name that captures who they actually are -- their personality, their looks, their energy. He'd been mentally cataloging the right names for every pet he'd ever met, and nobody was asking him.

So he picked up a clipboard, tucked a pencil behind his ear, and opened PetNameHQ.

What Scout Does Today

Today Scout interviews pet owners about their new companions and suggests names that actually fit. Not a generic list -- a personalized set of recommendations, each one with an explanation of exactly why it works for that specific animal.

He has named dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, fish, and at least one very dignified iguana named Reginald. He has never once suggested a bad name and he doesn't intend to start.

The bow tie was his idea. The glasses help him read the clipboard.
