What does Chica mean?

Chica is simply the Spanish word for "girl," especially a young Latina woman — an affectionate, everyday term rather than a formal name. It's the feminine counterpart to chico, "boy."

Chica has a bright, friendly sound that suits a spirited, sociable pet — the kind who greets everyone like an old friend. It feels warm and a little sassy.
