What do you guys think about people naming their pets after gods and goddesses?
I have seen many pet animals named after greek gods and goddesses. Even the Shih Tzu puppy of my uncle and aunt is named Pluto which is a male name despite the fact that their Shih Tzu puppy is a female. I never call her by her name but call her just puppy and she responds to it.
Isn't it hubristic and/or insulting to give names of the gods and goddesses to animals? Not saying that pets shouldn't be cherished but they can be named anything except for the names of gods and goddesses.
The theoi have many animal companions and creatures sacred to them but the gods never named their pets after themselves.
