Meaning and background
The story behind Poet
Poet is the English word for someone who writes poems. It has a distinct human occupation meaning, although the name might also be chosen for its sound or as a tribute to a favourite writer. The word came through French and Latin from a Greek term related to making or composing. As a pet name its meaning is metaphorical, not evidence of a dog's intelligence, sensitivity or artistic ability.
