    Name for a large black dog? Has to be Sirius!

    If going for that angle, Padfoot would be better.

    I'm guess I'm being dense, but I don't see how. Sirius is the dog star.


    Its...one of those.. you know.. Harry Potter things *nod nod*

    Exactly. Sirius in Harry Potter turns into a dog named Padfoot.

    LOVE THIS!!!!!!

    I think that, if you are getting a lab, the geekiest name would be Dexter. Dexter the Lab. :)

    i have a pygmy hedgehog called Dexter.

    I named my Husky Dexter and my Chocolate Lab "Arwen Undómiel" <- that was actually on her Vet report lol :blushing:

    I'd love a dog, and when I get one it will be male so I can name him Rory (from Doctor Who).
    Because they'll both be adorable and great companions. :)

    Also, like myself Rory is a bit of a Scottish name if you like that kind of thing, and can also work for a female (as seen on the Gilmore Girls).

    We haven't entirely decided yet! She won't be born for another 2 weeks, and we won't know until then whether she's black or yellow.


    Willow if she is yellow, for sure. My husband likes Darby if she's black (Darby O'Gill being a St. Patrick's Day staple in our house and us loving all things Irish). I dunno. Still taking suggestions into account! :wink: I've gotten some great ideas, though lots are male and we will definitely be getting a female. If I could get away with Samwise for a girl, I would!

    Sure you can, it can be short/long for Samantha. or you can name her Samantha, and just call her Samwise.

    this site gives the Elvish translation of names.

    http://www.arwen-undomiel.com/elvish/girlnames.html

    for example Dana translates to Erunanethiel (Air-oo-nahn-ehth-ee-ell)


    here is another site cannot guarantee they are authorized by the EPA (elvish preservation association)

    Well, we circled through our geek name list and went back to Irish. We're going to name her Finley (Finn). She's due to be born next week! :happy: Thanks again for all of the ideas that helped us to brainstorm!
