It is not compulsory for animals to have names that are alliterative with the creature’s species. Thus cows do not need to be called “Clarissa”, pigs do not need to be called “Peppa” and rabbits do not need to be called “Rachel”. A particularly warm section of hell is reserved for those who call hamsters “Hammy”.
Alternatively, at least be consistent, and ensure that all humans in your stories have names beginning with “H”
