Meaning and background
The story behind Zippy
Zippy has an English adjective association with speed or a fresh, lively style. The dictionary records both, so a dog owner's intention need not be limited to physical quickness. It can be an affectionate impression or a remembered moment rather than a requirement for constant activity. The word's established sense supplies the naming association while the name can remain with the dog as age and energy change.
