200+ Duck Names Ideas for Adorable Ducks

You may want to reconsider adopting a duck as your pet – it is true that ducks are an enjoyable addition to bath time, but they’re not considered “house pets” and need a lot of space!

If you find a pet duck in your yard, then it is likely one of them has wandered into your heart too.

Therefore, one of the best things you can do for your pet is to give it a large outdoor living space for them to play in. Whether it be a dog shelter or something similar, providing your pet with this can lead them to be more well-rounded and happy.

If you’ve found yourself a duck companion, you may be wondering what its name should be? So as not to overwhelm you, we have collected all the good female and male duck names choices. There are also our favorite babies, cute, funny, and famous names included.

How to Choose the Right Name for Your Duck?

The choice of names for ducks can be a bit tough, especially since they’re free and common like the word itself. But you have the best list to help you find the perfect one with 200+ options! Choose from catchy boys’ names like Donald or Bill, or go for cutesy girls’ names such as Daisy or Loony!

If you’re still not sure which one to pick, here’s a helpful list of things to consider:

Take a closer look at the personality of your duck or duckling. Observe how they behave with other ducks and see how they eat and waddle around. Try to answer the question, “What do I think makes them unique?”
This is a good way to find out how your favorite names sound to other people. You might also want to try it with different voice tones. This will give you an idea of which names might suit their personality better.
If you are at a loss, ask your trusted circle of friends and colleagues. We recommend limiting input to no more than a few people – too much input might confuse you even more.
Finally, bear in mind how you want to name your duckling. Your little chick will appreciate it no matter what you choose:)
