looking for suggestions for dog names

[av8rdave]

I've lost a 7 year, tenacious battle and my spouse is adopting a second Bichon, a 5 month old male.

After long discussion, the finalists (absent new input) are:

Zaphod
Bluto
Cuervo
Tequila
Guiness (I think that's brilliant, personally)

We're looking for an unusual name (obviously).

Here is the little guy in question:

[cwydro]

1. my sister always wanted

to name a dog MacDuff...as in "Lead on, MacDuff!"

What a cutie!

[cwydro]

2. Guinness

is great...but shouldn't the little tyke be browner for that???:hi:

[Sanity Claws]

24. I think it's perfect

Just have the dog walk in the mud up to his knees. Then he'll look like a glass of Guiness with a large head.

[cwydro]

3. I like the name

Magee..or McGee.

[petronius]

4. Mop? Dustbunny? Loofah? Toby?

:shrug:

[cwydro]

5. Gryphon

but pronounced Griffin...or just plain Griffin without the weird spelling...

[av8rdave]

8. All great suggestions....

I'm still pushing for Zaphod, as I'm a HG2G fan, but I think I'll lose that battle too.

[GCP]

10. I like Zaphod also

He was my favorite character in HHG - (The BBC radio version no less!)

[av8rdave]

11. I LOVED the BBC version!

For the record, I compromised and dropped Slartibartfast

[GCP]

20. ROTFL

That name always cracks me up!
:rofl:

[calico1]

6. Either Guiness or Tequila...

But he kind of looks like a Guiness. :hi:

7. We named our dog Boodah

Boodsie for short,

[av8rdave]

12. Adorable puppy...great looking dog

[hatredisnotavalue]

15. Thanks, he is as smart as a whip

I think he is the highest form of enlightenment:)

[brentspeak]

9. Snowball, or maybe Schneeball (German for 'snowball')

[av8rdave]

14. A German name for a French breed - why not?

I do kind of like it

[cwydro]

13. Casper

the friendly Bichon

[cwydro]

16. Winston

or Churchill

sorry for all the suggestions...I love to think of names, but have a TERRIBLE time when naming mine...I have a red dog named Teak and a black one named Jordan (but she was named at the pound.)

[skygazer]

17. Spot

Or Midnight. Or maybe Mittens.

[av8rdave]

18. Spot...rofl....that was one of my early suggestions...thanks

[rug]

19. Bearbait.

[skygazer]

23. You've been reading matcom news

:spank:

[NC_Nurse]

21. Dirk

-short for Dirk Gently, Holistic detective of course.
Mojito - Mo for short.
Wimpy - (Popeye theme, instead of Bluto)
Hugo - after Chavez
Franklin - after FDR
Barak - obvious..

just off the top of my head.
:-)

22. he is such a cute boy!

i don't know -- for somebody who is certainly going to be bouncy and happy -- zaphod is a tad serious.

i think he looks like a sparky.

[Callalily]

25. How about Feather? n/t

[TheCentepedeShoes]

26. Q-Tip

Knew someone with a small white fuzzy dog with that name.

[graywarrior]

27. Whatthefuck.

I knew a dog named Whatthefuck. He was cool.

[martymar64]

28. Luca Brazzi

or maybe Apollo Creed.

I love giving pets movie names!

[sarge43]

29. Shag Rug n/t

[IChing]

30. hvid vovse

hvid: the id is pronounced like a th and h is silent.
vovse: is pronounced like it is spelled.

White doggie.

[ornotna]

31. Biteme

He'll love you, honest.

[youthere]
