Origin
English
Pronunciation
/ˈbɪtsi/
Bitsy is a name that screams "small but mighty", and I see it as a wonderful choice for littler pups.
It's a playful nod to the phrase "Itsy Bitsy," popularized by the classic nursery rhyme about a certain water-spurting spider.
And that makes it ideal for petite pups with big personalities, or ironically, for larger breeds with a sense of humor.
Bitsy also has a vintage charm, since it harks back to the 1950s, a golden era of poodle skirts and soda shops.
When I'm trying to think of a name that's cute, quirky, and full of character, Bitsy always seems to work its way into my mind.
