Fevah Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 (edited) Naming a pup is my favourite part of the whole process (I know I'm a strange one) When I got my recent pup it was between a few French names as I already have Remy so I wanted a name to compliment him. So now I have Jacques and Remy. Others I liked but didn't fit were: Armand Etienne Dax Pascal Jules Thierry Of course the 3 Muskateers are always good names: Athos, Porthos, Aramis I also like Russian names (Boris is the name of my cousin's GSD, and he suits it well.....damn sneaky Russian) Arkady Vladimir Sasha Aleksi Yuri Nikolai [these are all about pronounciation of course!] My favourite series, by William Horwood, called the Wolves of Time has some beautiful names (inspired by cities, mountains, lakes etc. in Europe I believe) Abruzzo Ambato Aragon Baillo Klimt Kobrin Kubrat Lounel Morten Tervicz Torne Umbrio Vollutt You can't go past Greek gods names either. Some chief gods... Apollo Ares Hades Zeus River gods... Acheron Lethe Styx Other heroes/interesting names... Archilles Ajax Adonis Aeolus (anyone remember the Hercules series hehehe?) Alastor Balius Charon Dioscuri Hypnos Icarus Lycus Morpheus Notus Nox Orion Xanthus ...amongst many, many others Mythological creatures give fantastic names: Phoenix, Griffin, Pegasus, Dragon, Imp, Banshee, Ghost/Spook/Phantom, Goblin, Kelpie , Sphinx, Satyr, Seraphim, Elf OMG I'm probably boring you all....

Hi Littlebear, great list especially Jensen and Mitre 10 LOL that is so hot. Max Power awesome name, and it's from THE SIMPSON'S episode when homer changes his name and gets treated a lot better and welcomed into high society. I used to go for melbourne demons so was thinking DEMON was a cool name or MARLEY? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fevah Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 You could add your own little twist to it -> Daemon Daimon Devil Satan Lucifer Marley....hehe have you read 'Marley and Me'? Great dog story. Or perhaps you like the names of Bob Marley's sons? Damian Julian Ziggy Ky-Mani Stephen Rohan God, I have GOT to stop this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nksyd Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I was thinking about this last night on the way home and decided I liked: Travis Archie Alfie Sebastian James Freddie Jack Basically - English boys names Still can't work out how to quote...

Roxy Lady Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I have all my male dogs names picked out . I have: Tank Mowgli Ziggy Pancho Malakye (if i was ever gonna own a malalute or sibe, i would use this name ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ell&diesel Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I used to go for melbourne demons so was thinking DEMON was a cool name or MARLEY? Aah but look out, ever since that book came out there has been a massive increase of young dogs I've met called Marley! Which is like Diesel - when we got him, people thought it was an unusual name. Now there are tons of Diesels everywhere. Only cool dogs get the name though What about Bass? (pronounced base, not bass as in Bass Strait) I love that name, it popped into my head when I was helping name a friend's new bullmastiff x girl the other week. They ended up calling her Mia though.

Thank you and I didn't realise bob marley had so many children with cool names! I was thinking about this last night on the way home and decided I liked:Travis Archie Alfie Sebastian James Freddie Jack Basically - English boys names Still can't work out how to quote... Hi nksyd, I love Alfie but reminds me of the movie played by Jude Law and I dislike his image at the moment LOL. Oh and I sent you a message. Thank u also. I have all my male dogs names picked out .I have: Tank Mowgli Ziggy Pancho Malakye (if i was ever gonna own a malalute or sibe, i would use this name ;) ) Hi Roxy Lady, thank you for your contribution. And love Malakye and your right it does suit a mala or sibe. Tank is awesome too. I used to go for melbourne demons so was thinking DEMON was a cool name or MARLEY? Aah but look out, ever since that book came out there has been a massive increase of young dogs I've met called Marley! Which is like Diesel - when we got him, people thought it was an unusual name.

(pronounced base, not bass as in Bass Strait) I love that name, it popped into my head when I was helping name a friend's new bullmastiff x girl the other week. They ended up calling her Mia though. Hi ell&diesel, I know what your saying Diesel is popular hence your pup but it's so cool like Vin Diesel and he is rockin. . Marley yes a friend of mine said the same thing when I suggested it. Bass aka base is nice and different first I've heard of it. But I suppose names suit different breeds and personalities also. Thank you for your contribution.

Fevah Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Some breeds do suit certain names ---> I knew an Italian Greyhound called Flash. A Whippet called Prince. A Dalmatian called Oscar (he was a silly thing). A bitch German Pointer called Diana (like the goddess of hunting). She was a feisty, adventurous lass don't chya know? A GSD called Agat (pronounced: ah-ghat, Polish for Agate). A GSD called Zboj (pronounced: z-boi, Polish for thief). Yesterday I went to the dog park and met a Pug called Chubby, a Labrador called BooBoo , a Staffy called Buddy and various others which I have forgotten. I think its always interesting to find out what people call their dogs. I like the idea of Buddy, because ultimately that is what your dog is! Others along those lines could be: Mate Pal Friend Ally Comrade Words for 'friend' in different languages: Vriend (Afrikaans) Sahib (Arabic) Amicus (Latin) Amigo (Spanish) Mik (Albanian) Bondhu (Bengali) Bandu (Sinhalese) Dost (Persian) Ven (Danish) Venn (Finnish) Philos (Greek) Tomodachi (Japanese) Caraid (Gaelic) Rafiki (Swahili) Barat (Hungarian) Freund(German) Teman Kawan Sahabat Sobat Sobin (all of the above Indonesian) Przyjaciel (Polish) (pronounced: pshy - ya - chel) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustam Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 the last 3 names of male dogs i know are Lotus Zeke Boston previous family/friends dogs names kaos Micky Tyson Buddy slugger Kenzi (kenz-eye) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoshana Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 If I had a Doberman (again) I'd call it Elvis (again), if I had a Golden Retriever I'd call it Honey, if I had a Min Pin I'd call it Pegasus, if I had a Rotti I'd call it Shrek or Fiona, if I had a Chi I'd call it James or Elizabeth, but my Tibetan terrier is called Rosie because my son thought it was a cool name for a black scruffy dog.

husky princess Posted August 24, 2008 Author Share Posted August 24, 2008 A shout out to.... rommimum great names, MEMPHIS, MASON, HUNTER and more. Love em. I agree many names that are very versatile both boy and girl. Thank you for your contribution. Keep em coming if you have any more hot suggestions. indigirl YES YES love alien movies and RIPLEY also, so you have a friend indeed. Also love love KAOS which is mentioned by another admirer. Good luck with your new pup bet is gonna have an awesome name to go with it. Thank you also for your input much appreciated and feel free to add more if they spring to mind. Fevah as always you are my name dictionary, excellent addition and compliation very interesting and different names which is a bonus. If only we could have more dogs to name right. LOL. CHUBBY that is soooo mean, must be an in house joke or something but thank goodness the dog doesn't know what it means. You must've been giggling hearing a few of those names. Thank you much appreciated and looking forward to more from you, if you can spare more of you quality time. bustam Oh I adore KENZI, BOSTON and once again by popularity KAOS. KENZI is so unusual and exotic, would definitely stick out in a crowded park. KAOS is mentioned a second time now previously by INDIEGIRL. Must be spreading. Thank you very much for your valuable addition has made a conversation starter among friend's about unique names, and hope to see more from you if you can spare a few moments. shoshana oh yes if only we could use all those dream names on our dream pets, we would be smothered by fur. Honey is an awesome name for a GRD. Great names and nice choices in breeds. And your son definitely hit the mark with that analysis, cool name. Thank you for your additional contribution and hope to see more. Today I thought of KYRO, BANDIT, MADDOX, LARZ, SHIA, RONIN, KNOX and LENNOX. SHIA is hebrew for 'GIFT FROM GOD.'
