    If I had a pup, I would call her wolverine.

    Give her a week or so - she'll tell you what her name is. :) Long ago, I adopted a pretty beat up pup that the shelter had named Clyde. I didn't like that name much and decided to try others --- but, as it turns out, he actually WAS Clyde. Just a big Clydieo. LOL - stupidest smart dog I ever had. Miss him every day.

    General rules of thumb to keep in mind: try to pick a name that has a hard consonent and/or a syllibant s... both are perported to catch and keep a canine's attention.

    Congrats on your pup - she's adorable ... and very lucky to have found you!

    Call it a proper name - a proper person name not like Lassie or something LOL - I'm useless at girl names - I know how hard it is to choose a puppy name we got ours 3 months ago and the time it took us to come up with it! We did keep going back to the same name tho so obviously it was the one for our pup :)

    I spell my yorkie as R-O-X-I-E -- Roxie, Emmie, Abbie. She is just adorable, I cannot believe someone would do that! Thank you for taking her!

    We have two chipoos which are tea cup poodle and tea cup chihuahua mixes. We adore them and they are our babies. We named them Sylvia (Sylvie) and Lulu so I'm partial to those two names. :)
    Others I like ... Delilah, Coco, Phoebe, Mercury (b/c she's so tiny!), Molly, Lilly, Chloe, Mickey, Pebbles ... I'll stop there! :flowerforyou:

    Talulua! I always loved that name for small dogs!

    Be careful when she gets older with nipping - try not to let her do it at all, no matter how cute it might seem. Pups often don't learn bite inhibition when they are separated so young - they learn it from their mum and littermates. This isn't necessarily vicious biting, just play biting and mouthing, but as they get stronger it can hurt like hell!

    If you're interested in seeing an extreme case, try looking up a video on Diesel the husky who was on It's Me or the Dog. He mouths and bites constantly because he was separated from his litter at 4 or 5 weeks old. I know she won't grow anywhere near his size, but she could still pack a good nip!

    (I do dog behaviour/training in case you're wondering where this random bit of advice came from)

    We have 5...there's

    New Zealnd Huntaway - Woolaways Razor Smile (Razor) or Dufus...
    Australian Kelpie - Top Devonairs Trusty Rusty (Rusty) or Bad Dog
    Australian Kelpie - Ash Bang Wallop (Ash) or Mad Dog
    Working Cocker Spaniel - Pickled Tink (Pickle) or Bonkers Dog
    Collie/Spaniel Cross - Her name is Rio (Rio) or Pig Dog

    The last bits are what my little man calls them all.

    Whatever name you come up with, ask yourself how comfortable you'd be standing in a park shouting it for a recall - my friend was going to call his Doberman 'Gunner' - I'll let you work out how that sounds shouting a recall command.....

    Roxy is nice, good name, short, easy...and well done for getting her. We foster dogs from time to time, Pickle is a rescue....

    Every time my mom got a pup, the first few months it was called little ****...until we could figure out a name that fit the pups personality. They had a Snowball (used to run in the snow and tumble *kitten* over tea kettle), a Digger, and a Sparky. I have had a Snicklefritz and a Misty (she would stare blankley at the corner for hours).
