I have four that I just can't get enough of on Rassaa.
1.
Tinder
I *love* Tinder. I got him way back at level 42, running through Plaguelands and Ghostlands to find him. He was my very favorite through Northrend. At 80 I slowly stopped using him, though, and through to 85 he never really saw the outside world. At last, far into my career at 85, I pulled him out of the stable. I'd been having trouble bonding to my pets.
Bam. Instant. I knew why I hadn't bonded to any other pets - because I was forgetting about the one I already adored. I go everywhere with Tinder. He's so bright and pretty, with his lively, mischievous face and adorable little stripy nose. He even looks good with my transmog set, with his bright colors. If I had to release every other pet, there's no doubt about it - Tinder would stay.
2.
Erik
Named, of course, after the Phantom of the Opera. Why? Why not?
I love this giant reptile. I tamed every color other than him, as I always found brown to be really dull and boring. Why get brown when I could tame bright pearly white or dark, shining black? Maybe even the reclusive but beautiful green! Yet, I found that neither white nor black did anything for me. They were neat, but they weren't for Rassaa at all. Foreign beasts that didn't seem like they really were connected to the hunter. Finally I gave in and tamed a red devilsaur on whim.
Click.
He's no more interestingly colored than he ever was, and I love him.
3.
Lackjaw
My brother once had an orc hunter. Somewhere along the line he tamed a raptor, which he then named Lackjaw. I never saw Lackjaw leave his side after that. Whenever I thought of his hunter, I thought of Lackjaw. Of course, he eventually forgot about that character, and both gathered dust on our old server.
Eventually, I started searching for a raptor to match my transmog set. I got a black one at first, but it was just some pet. Abandoning it, I tried several other colorations. Nothing. Finally I just went ahead and tamed this guy.
And didn't like him at all. Didn't match my transmog set, wasn't the right color… Meh. Abandoned him, gave up on raptors. A long while later I finally started trying raptors again, and try as I might, I couldn't bond with any of them. Predictably, I once again found myself in Dustwallow, raptorless. One more try. I tamed him again and this time, I named him after my brother's pet.
It didn't click at first. It took a dungeon run with my brother to do that. First thing I see when I zone in…
"LACKJAW!!!! I've missed you old buddy!"
Yup. Lackjaw is here to stay.
4.
Torn
My most recent tame, but I fell in love right away. At first I was just flying to Scholo and I stumbled upon Big Samras. I tamed him, but didn't like him and tried an Infested Bear instead. Too silver - didn't like that one either. On my way through Tristfall, I remembered the Faerie Dragon Circle, and decided to take a detour to find it. It didn't take me long, and the first sight to greet me was this big bear. He looked rather lonely, far from the forest, the only bear. I decided to tame him on whim, then adventured about the Whispering Forest.
That is my new favorite zone in the game.
The bear just spoke to me. He was from an area where diseased creatures could live in family groups, play, and be without pain despite their plague. He's like a mystic, or a wise man - he's seen hope through hopelessness.
And now, Vallrok's pets! Only three this time.
1.
Faron
Faron is Vallrok's favorite and always will be. He inspired a character that I love, and has earned me some friends that I've now had for years and can't praise enough. I don't remember when or how I tamed Faron, but he's without a doubt my favorite of his pets. Even above Sorrow.
2.
Sorrow
Ahh, Sorrow. Vallrok was my first real hunter, and Sorrow was his first real bonded pet. Technically he stated out as King Bangladash. No, not because he had special skills - I didn't even know about that until long after I'd tamed him. It was because of a hunter I saw with Rak'shiri. For some reason, I thought King B shared the look, so I tamed him. I never really realized until later that he didn't. (Keep in mind, I was ten. xD) I loved him and named him Sorrow… Or so I thought… I actually named him "sarrow". Yeah. I was a pro at spelling. Anyway! I kept "Sarrow" through Northrend, then for some insane reason, abandoned him. I don't know why.
That broke the spell for a long time. I couldn't get Sarrow back. Nothing was the same cat. Then, after a long wait, I saw a new tamable cat - a white tiger in the Riding Tiger model, the one that first made me tame my cat. I ran to Winterspring and tamed him, naming him what he was always meant to be named.
This guy is never leaving my active stable.

Seamist[/i]
Seamist was the reason Vallrok hit 80 in the first place. He was my highest level hunter when Wrath came out, and I wanted that ghost hydra. I leveled as fast as possible and did as many dailies as possible, and finally claimed my prize. He's not emotionally bonded as strongly as Sorrow or Faron, but he's still earned his place in my faves. (He's also my tank! I never specced him into Ferocity, so he still has all his tenacity talents.)
Skorn is by far the most important pet to me, and always will be. I've been playing WoW pretty much since it was first released, and all through Vanilla and BC I wondered why I could never find that special connection with any pets. I had many I was fond of, but there was never that overwhelming bond. Well, turns out Skorn was just waiting for me all those years until we could finally tame devilsaurs. If there was ever a fated match for me in the game, this would surely be it. I adore my big scaly dino more than anything, he just has so much loyalty and personality and charm. He's been by my side since that day I tamed him and felt the bond, and he'll without a doubt always be there as Vephriel's tried and true friend.

Crocodiles are my favourite animals in real life, and as many probably know I love the colour purple. When the Cataclysm crocolisk models were datamined and I saw this one I was flipping out with anticipation of getting it. The Beta progressed for a long while, all of which no tameable mobs were found and my hope dwindled. Finally towards the end Gorebite pulled through and my resulting exuberance nearly reached that of the Gezzarak news. Aleister here is named after Aleister Crowley as I loved the evil, demonic look this croc has. It just seemed like the perfect name and it suits him wonderfully.
Give me a a little bit. 
He camped Time Lost and Aeonaxx with me, and has been in the stables once since being tamed
