actually the names are species specific. for instance:
birds- begninello (well born) e betrinella (happiness)
o emanuello (God is witness) e evangelina (bringer of good news)
cats- guido (leader) e gatolina (kitten)
o pio (obedient) e picolliona (small)
dogs- canino (canine) e carina (beloved)
o donatello (gift) e docinella (sweetness)
fish- ilario (cheerful) e irene (peace)
o luciano (light) e letiziana (gladness)

i could go on, but ill spare you. its just that name etymology interests me.
