Meaning and background
The story behind Snuggles
Snuggles is the plural noun or third-person verb form associated with snuggle, the act of cuddling close or settling comfortably. Its final syllable gives the word a particularly nickname-like sound. The affectionate connotation is evident from the English word, but it is a mistake to treat that as proof of a dog’s disposition. This entry records the word’s sense rather than inventing a pedigree of personal names.
