Need a name for our new puppy :-)

[21st century pict]

My pal's pets always had great names, I particularly liked his to two springer spaniels Neeps and Tatties, Me I'm rubbish at pet names, so just so you can scratch it off the list, I like the sound of Vizsla, but with three girls in the house it would just end up Vissy.

KIRA. The name came available this morning when our 14 year old staff passed away.

Enjoy her, all the best.

Sorry to hear that Dwardo. A sad day indeed.

-25 to Dotty

That's pants, mate, and I'm very sorry to hear it. Never an easy thing to deal with.

My mate had a choccy lab called Oi!!!!!

Rather apt.

I was going to suggest calling it by whatever you're likely to shout at it most... but I've been beaten to it.

I am the proud owner of "Get OFF!" and "STOP licking my SOFA!"

 

[stonehippo]

Believe it or not Stonehippo they've already named one of our chickens Hermione!

In that case I would go for Professor McGonagall!

 

[Tengu]

Ching Shih

One of the Badassesed pirates in history, and a lifelong member of the SWMBO club.

We used to have a cat called Stupid. When it was was a kitten her name was Dogfood.

I met a guy once whose dog absolutely refused to answer its name when called. In disgust he shouted "Oi! Blockhead!". The dog responded instantly, as if "Blockhead! that's me!" and trotted back obediently.

Girl's names with distinction:
Clara (I just watched Dr Who)
Stephanie
Sapphire (Joanna Lumley, Sapphire & Steel)
Mrs Peel
Eowyn

Had the same breed... she was a beauty and a loyal friend.

Her name was Sally.

Daft, but I miss that dog... when I was sick she lay on the couch next to me and wouldn't let anyone near me unless I approved... that included my girlfriend of the time.

So I guess my nomination is for Sally. Not original, not particularly fashionable, but I'd be a bit of a git if I didn't put her name forward.

 

[Bishop]

How about "Tinder" ?

 

[Robbi]

My lurcher bitch is called Charles Boker.

 

[Damascus]

How about "Willow", a nice soft name and with 3 women to deal with I'm sure they would find acceptable, (I've 5 sisters and 2 daughters, here speaks a man of experience!)

But would not this, in familiar use, likely be shortened to "Willy"?

 

[redneck]

I have a lurcher and her name is samphire, my wife calls her 'fire' and I call her 'saffy' for short, she responds to both names equally well, so choose a name that can have a couple of nicknames and everybody will be happy!
