    I would choose a name with an e sound at the end and probably 1-2 syllables.
    Josie, Sophie, Jessie, Maggie, Abby, Missy, Tallie, Sally, Sookie, Tawny, Penny, Rosie, Sunny

    Agree with the two syllable tip. Supposedly it makes for better response to their name or something.

    Dogs will respond better to a name with two syllables, the first one should be a hard sound.

    Apparently the first syllable attracts their attention and they recognize the second one.

    I'm not a fan of a dog or other pet having a human name. You will, hopefully, keep the dog for 12 to 16 yeas or more. What if in that time a human comes into your life with the same name?

    Happened to a friend of mine, he got a girlfriend with the same name as the dog that he had already owned for about 4 or 5 years. They were both Maggie. He tried renaming the dog but it was very confusing because the dog would answer to both names. (The gf only to one lol).
