Stardew Valley Animal Name Generator

You name every coop animal (chickens in white, brown, blue, void and golden, ducks, rabbits and dinosaurs), every barn animal (cows, goats, sheep, pigs and ostriches), plus your horse, your cat or dog, and the pets added in the 1.6 update such as turtles. You choose the name when you buy the animal from Marnie or when an egg hatches, and you can rename a coop or barn animal later by interacting with it and choosing the name box.

Yes for coop and barn animals: interact with the animal and open its info screen (the heart and name panel) and you can edit the name there at any time. Pets and horses do not get that screen; their names are set when you adopt them and are much harder to change, so take more care with the dog, cat or horse than with your twelfth chicken, where a bad first choice is never permanent.

Puns play well in the coop: Hen Solo, Cluck Norris, Princess Layer, Eggatha, Yolko, Sir Cluckington and Lady Featherington. Naming a chicken Charlie (Shane's chicken in his heart events) or Shane is a nod to the villager who cares about them most. For void chickens, Nightshade, Void and Krobus are popular.

Animal names can be fairly long on PC, but consoles and mobile show fewer characters in hover tooltips and in the Animals tab, so anything past about a dozen characters may be clipped. Names here are short enough to display fully on every platform, and none contain the special symbols that can cause issues in save files.
