-Lillipup may be a combination of either "[[wiktionary:li'l|li'l]]" a shortening of little, or "[[wiktionary:lilliputian|lilliputian]]",  and "pup". Lillipup's name is also similar to a number of real and fictional locations, which are all called {{wp|Lilliput}}, though it is likely just a coincidence. Yorterrie seems to be a portmanteau of {{wp|Yorkshire Terrier}}.
