Starting out, the two called themselves West End, because of their love of London's West End, but later they came up with the name Pet Shop Boys, a name derived from some friends who worked in a pet shop in Ealing. They said that Pet Shop Boys "sounded like an English rap group."

They named themselves after a couple of friends who were running a pet shop in Ealing.

It is to do with a sexual thing especially in gay mens circles.
it involves a rodent...and gets put in the anus
I think it is very cruel and a bit gross...but that's what some people like.
this is where the name pet shop boys comes from
