Interesting Names...

Posted : 6/19/2006 1:29:48 PM

...For dogs! This can be fora group of littermates or a single dog.

I'm sure there will be much variety, seeing as how a dog can be named literally anything (Come here, Anything!), but we don't need a full list.

If I ever get a pair of brothers I'll call them Glitch and Bug. ^^

I do themes on my litters...first one was two pups born on opening week of the NFL 2004 season...
Ryngwrayth's Tuck Rule "Tuck"
Ryngwrayth's Under Center "Snap"

Second was a litter of 3 girls that were named in a Grease theme
Ryngwrayth's Tell Me More "Rizzo'
Ryngwrayth's Oh, Sandy 'Sandy"
Ryngwrayth's Beauty School Dropout "Frenchy"

Third was a litter of 5...born selection weekend of the NCAA Basketball Tournament
Ryngwrayth's Final Four 'Cuatro'
Ryngwrayth's Bracketology "Bracket"
Ryngwrayth's Diaper Dandy "Dan"
Ryngwrayth's Elite Eight 'Ellie'
Ryngwrayth's Sweet Sixteen "Teeny"

Some of these names stuck and some have been changed by new owners. I love themes and plan on always using them []

Even tho our dogs have been rescues, we've done theme names. Our Husky/GSD was Heineken, and Mick is "really" Michelob.

My rats and fish had/have theme names, too. The rats were named after a PBR bullfighter and his riding brother- Roach and Tuff.

The fish are NASCAR related (those that have names that is). That all started with our youngest son naming his Chinese Algae Eater Dale Earnhardt (about a year before Earnhardt's death). After that came: DW, Mikey, Petty, Charolette, Terry, Bristol, Ernie, Irvan, Wedge, Donny, Alan, Ricky, Hermie, Roush, Yates, Penske, Mark, Martin, Boris, Shawna, DJ, Ned, Jack, Ward.

I had a betta fish named Omar Epps, a chinese water dragon named Bob Villa, and a rat named Spiva. This was forever ago, when I was in college.

I like names that go together like for a pair of dogs:

Dunkin and Donut
Fresh and Clean
Ying and Yang

I love my brother's pug's name: Sir Puggleston [

A guy at the dog park has a cattle dog mix named "Steve" He says he's going to change it to "Steve. Steve?" Because every time someone asks him what his dog's name is, he says, "Steve." and they reply, "Steve??" lol

I like my cat's name, Scout, from "To Kill a Mockingbird" - both thematic (bird-killing, get it? [8|]) and from a favorite book of mine.

You'd love the names of some cats I've known. We had Peanutbutter and Jelly when I was growing up. Later, my parents had Ike and Mike and Fric and Frac. Friends had Fred and Ethel, and his parents had Tom and Gerry.
