Meaning and background
The story behind Juicy
Juicy can be a deliberately playful descriptive name. Merriam-Webster records the literal juice-filled sense and figurative associations with vitality, vivid interest and reward. A household may intend a fruit-inspired image or an affectionate exaggeration of a dog's exuberance. Those choices use ordinary vocabulary rather than prove a traditional given-name root. The different senses offer alternatives, not a list of qualities every dog named Juicy possesses.
