There are many types of pigs – boars, warthogs, pygmies, but if you are looking for one to adopt, then you are in the market for a domestic pig. From minis and micros all the way to massive potbellies, depending on where you live, a pig may just be the ideal pet as they do require daily outdoor exposure.

Choosing a name for your huggable hog could be incredibly challenging – so we have gathered the greatest pig names and sorted them into an easy guide. Below you find our fav female and male suggestions, pairings for piglets, adorable, funny, and famous names too!
