First; if you like your pet, nobody should take away that!
If the name means something to you keep the pet, and do not listen to others.

On the Forums I see a lot of different Opinions about the pet prizes and names.
Names:
BAD named; everything with weird signs, '_' sign, and digits in it.

OK named; not capitalized, or Capitalized names which are ridiculous long, also names which you cannot be pronounce. Also combined names are seen as o/n, like GoodDog. More than 2 words is seen as b/n.

WELL named; capitalized and pronounceable names.

VERY WELL named; mostly these pets have short, names, mostly real names.

Some persons ask what their pet names are.( b/n, o/n, w/m, v/w/n)

If the name is such as (sorry if it exists) Carolinevine, than its w/n but on the scale of 10 very low. Maybe a 3/10.
Katy is w/n a 10/10 on the scale of 10 OR

Very well named: Katy can also be v/w/n.
And it is c/n (Common named )
C/n names are written on the common way, so not alternate spellings of a name.

Some people will say real word names are only w/n, others will say v/w/n.
It is also a difference if you call a pet 'Action' (I like that name) or 'Lamp'.
I can imagine I call a real life pet Action, but not Lamp.

This sort of discussions -how named the pet is- you will always keep. You cannot argue on personal taste, and so discussions or pets are b/n, but mostly on o/n, w/n and v/w/n will always be there.

Thats ok, as you understand everyone has his/her own taste.
Nobody's Perfect (Why can i not have the name Nobody for my pet? lol)

Prices of Pets:
I have seen lists which differ a lot. Some lists are very old where for example Gizmo's are not mentioned.

So do not trust one list, but look on the trade-forum-market what happens there.
Also cossies and names make a pet more OR less worth. A bad named high LE is less in demand. it is about preferences......
A trade between a b/n high LE and a w/n lower LE is possible.

The values of the pets can be different day to day.

So far my advice, I hope you can use it.

If pets are not on the list they are probably non-le, those are worth nothing. But non-le can be traded with non-le.
If your non-Le has a very good name, it can be that per
