Help with puppy names!

My friend had a doberman named Cayenne (like the pepper). I thought that was a great name.

I am sooooooooo excited, our friends gave my fiance and I a pitbull puppy from their litter as an early wedding gift!!! We have two dogs and a cat already, a Jack Russel (Shorty) a Lab Husky mix (Harley) and our cat (Ryno), but we can't seem to agree on a new name for this puppy. I love Luna but he says he doesn't like the na part, what does that even mean? Lol. I really want a unique name for her, does anybody have any suggestions??

That is so funny! my boyfriend and I are talking about getting a second doggy. We were discussing girl names (we already have one girl) and my boyfriend suggested Luna! I like it but I already loved the name I picked... Myra. Tori Amos is one of our mutual favorite musicians and Myra is her real name. i thought it was fitting because I love that we both love her and have that in common- not usually someone a man likes! Anyway, Luna is a cute name! Maybe you can convince him. Our other doggies name is Bella (she's not named after the twilight chick, shes 5).

I'll steal a page from the royal wedding madness... Pippa?

Ok so don't make fun of me but who is Pippa? I don't really watch a lot of well... anything, because I just don't have the time! lol

Pippa is Princess Cathrines sister. Kate and Will just got married last week. Took over the TV in the morning

I knew about the Royal Wedding and Kate and William's names just not the pets I guess :happy:

give her a long name that shortens to something cute like Whillamina and call her minnie, or sasafrass and call her sassy,
or look for a marking to decide the name if she has a white tip to her tail or toes name her tippy, or if she has all white feet socks or boots are cute too.

This is me: When I named my children, we pre-selected the names before they were born.
Different with the pets- I wait till they develop their own distinctiveness as a puppy/kitten- and I end up with a name that picks them instead. Never has been a wrong choice.

PS....the kitten portrayed in my profile shot is named Hershey. She came from a Chocolate Shoppe.

we named one of our girls Diesel....we love it and it suits her very well!

I named my pit bull puppy "Ginger", however she was raised sleeping in my bed every night and was very loved and spoilled, but somehow still grew up to be an aggressive and scary dog so she was put down. rip my little Ginger

good luck with yours. I know they arent all like that. I did my best to make her a loving dog but it didnt work.

That's sad!!! I used to have a pitbull but had to give her up because of my crazy work/school schedule and never being home to take care of her. She was 1 when I got her and 2 when I got rid of her, and the sweetest dog ever. A lot of my friends have pits too... My fiance wasn't crazy about letting them give her to me because she's a pit but I printed off a bunch of statistics and stuff to give to him. I'm very persistant when I want something lol. I think once he's around her and sees he'll be a lot happier with his decision Plus she'll be growing up around other dogs, a cat, and kids so she will be exposed to everything right away! We have a dog trainer that we will be getting lessons from as well. Since we don't have any kids of our own (just nieces and nephews) I pretty much spend all my money on our dogs and cat lol

I have a dog that is an "aggressive" breed as well. My Bella is a rottweiler. She is the sweetest dog ever! It's all about the training! Dogs are how you teach them to be... not that the other poster taught her dog to be aggressive but they usually get that way because something is missing that they need such as LOTS of exercise and attention. Plus knowing who's boss. I read recently that we should be walking our doggy for 45 minutes a day at the minimum. Dogs are a lot of work- but they also help motivate you to get a walk in! So that's nice!

also fun to give them names like DOG, D.O.G or Deogi

I grew up with a black lab named Sparky, a yellow lab named Butterscotch, and a border collie named Brandi. We also had a stray cat named Shadow at one point. In my early 20's I had a cat named Kenmore (named after Kenmore Square in Boston where I lived... but I moved and gave the cat to my parents who then re-named her Misty.) My daughter is severely allergic so we can't have dogs but my parents now have a yellow lab/shephard mix named Callie and a dalmation named Dottie.

If my daughter weren't allergic, I'd love to have a dog named Bailey or Sammy or Maggie. I don't know why! lol

yes my husband was a certified dog trainer. he and I worked with her and thats why I got her as a puppy so I could train her. I was a stay at home mom to two small kids and we had a german sheperd and 3 cats so Ginger was exposed to everything. she was so sweet to my kids but when my friends kids came over she acted very strangely almost protective and scary. after her snapping at a few of our dinner guests we knew it wouldnt work. then again some of them act that way because they are inbred. sounds like you know where your puppy came from so will likely not have any of those issues I got mine in a grocery cart in the walmart parking lot LOL!!! had no clue where she came from or if she was inbred or not

I had a blast naming our Golden retriever. I think you should pick a name that suits them. I chose the name Draco (from the movie Dragonheart NOT Harry Potter like everyone thinks!) which means Dragon. My fiance liked the name because Dragons usually protected treasures and Draco is very protective of our daughter!

My dad brought home a pitt bull when I was a teenager. he named her Alimony because he figured he would be paying it after bringing her home (We had 10 other dogs). We called her Ally. We also had pork chop, hamstring, flea bag, hound dog, Ladybug, Buffy, L.D (stood for lee davis), and White dog. The Jack I have now is just called Daisy!

I always tried to match my pets names by their personality. Cody is a cute name for a girl dog.

My husband and I thought the name Kaygogi would be funny. (yahoo search it) But we kind of have a weird sense of humor. :happy:

Pippa is Kate Middleton's sister (Royal Wedding).....I just got a puppy, a beagle, and finally decided on Chloe....my other beagle was already named Putsch (a military coup d'etat....he was a poly sci graduate student lol) when I got him from an ex, but I always just pronounced it Pooch....

We need to see a photo to properly name her!!!

Depending on color.....I love the name Peanut Butter (from the movie Winter's Bone)
Despite naming my pup Chloe I do love silly names!! Like Boo Boo, Freckles, Martini, Cha Cha...

clioandboy

Ha! I like this I have a black lab cross Clio, a golden retriever boy Geoffrey Thierry Henri (lol), lunar, tinka and amber the cats....

I would go for something a little ironic... Kat, fifi for a female or Eugene poppet for a male.

I would love a puppy a staffy would be lovely, do let u's know what you decide!
