The Morkie is a tiny designer crossbreed of the Maltese and the Yorkshire Terrier, also called the Morkshire Terrier, Yorktese or Malki. It usually carries a long, silky, soft and often low-shedding coat that can range from pure white and cream to black, tan and chocolate, frequently lightening or shifting as the pup grows. That floss-soft, glamorous coat is exactly why silky and sweet names like Silky, Pearl, Cotton and Marshmallow suit the breed so well, while a snow-white pup wears Snowball and Angel beautifully.

The Maltese is one of the most ancient of all lapdogs: a pure-white aristocrat of the Mediterranean, cherished on the island of Malta and across the Greek and Roman world, the pampered companion of noblewomen for thousands of years. The Yorkshire Terrier is a glamorous little firecracker from the north of England, bred in Victorian Yorkshire to chase rats in the mills and then refined into a silky-coated darling of high society. Together they make a tiny, devoted, glamorous and surprisingly bold little companion -- a velcro lapdog with a real terrier spark. Because the Morkie is a crossbreed rather than a recognised purebred, it is not registered by major kennel clubs like the AKC, and its size, coat and looks vary from litter to litter.

Morkies are widely described as affectionate, lively, glamorous and bold -- pint-sized dogs with a huge personality. That pampered, high-society character points to several naming directions: glamorous Italian and Mediterranean names like Bella, Gigi, Sofia, Bianca, Gemma, Romeo, Leo and Luca, fashion-house and diva names that suit a little aristocrat such as Gucci, Armani, Chanel, Valentino, Barbie, Cher, Dolly, Fifi and Duchess, silky sweet and fluffy-white names like Silky, Pearl, Cotton, Marshmallow, Snowball, Sugar, Cupcake, Angel and Ivory, and spunky terrier names that match the Yorkie spark such as Sassy, Spunky, Pixie and Rascal. For a little jewel of a dog, Jewel, Crystal, Diamond and Precious truly sparkle.
