:grinno: Just picked her up yesterday! 8 weeks old 24 lbs and in need of a good name. I been rackin my brain all night. Suggestions?
I got my dog on a Friday, it happened to be good Friday. Also, she was born on Friday so I named her Friday. It sounds Kinda strange though when she gets out of the yard and I'm roaming the streats yelling "Friday, come on Friday" :giggle:
You got your's on a saturday eh? "Saturday, come on Saturday"....nah, doesn't sound right.
Asking around here, I wouldn't be surprised if you got at least one suggestion of "ies" as a name. :p
:ies: :ies: :ies:
hmm... It's kinda hard if you don't know the dog. I'm also not a fan of common place dog names like max and spot.
I could probably give you a whole list of strange ones, but don't know if that's your thing...
So what's her personality like? Obviously she's a black dog, but how big do you expect her to get (I'm guessing decent sized by her size now)
I named my dog "Furia" which is latin for hellhound :) It also means "The Rage" in I want to say Romanian
How about Cougie?
My guess is around 80 pounds. She's a big mush. Crystal, I'm not a fan of boring names either. I named my cat Freeway :)

Fenrir - Giant wolf. Fenrir was the offspring of Loki and the giantess Angerboda. Fenrir was also called Fenris.
Fenrir grew so rapidly and in such gigantic proportion that the gods feared it. The gods pretend to play game of binding the wolf, to see if it could freed itself. Fenrir agreed to play the game if someone would place his or her hand in Fenrir's giant mouth. Only the war-god Tyr was fearless enough to place his hand in its mouth.
The gods found nothing could bind the wolf, until they received a magical silk ribbon called Gleipnir, created by dwarfs. This ribbon was made of noise of a cat, beard of woman, breath of a fish and spittle of a bird. When Fenrir could not escape, he realised he was tricked by the gods, when they refused to release him. In revenge, Fenrir bit off Tyr's hand. Thereafter, Tyr was known as the One-handed God.When Ragnarök (Ragnarok) arrived, Fenrir broke free from his fetter, and joined the other giants and monsters in a war against the gods. Fenrir fought against Odin, until the wolf killed and devoured Odin. Vidar avenged his father's death, by ripping Fenrir's jaw apart with his bare hands.
Garm - Hell-hound. Garm was the giant hound that guarded the gate in Hel (world of the dead). (Garm was very much like three-headed Ceberus, who also guarded the Underworld, in Greek myths.)
Although, Tyr had killed Garm at Ragnarök (Ragnarok), the war-god died from his severe wounds that the hound had inflicted on him.
Skoll and Hati
Skoll and Hati were two giant wolves that pursued two heavenly bodies – Sol (Sun) and Moon.
Skoll and Hati were descendants of the troll-wives or giantesses known as the Iarnvidiur.
One of the signs of the coming of Ragnarök was that Skoll would devour the goddess Sol, and Hati would swallow Moon. The Nine Worlds would suffer from long winter.
One of my friends named his dog Deoge as in D-O-G
What's she like? :)
You don't like to read lately, do you? ;)
Interstate, Overpass, Road Block, Highway, Back Road, Traffic Delay...
:dunno: !!!!
How about Blacktop? :)
have you ever seen the the movie "The Jerk" with Steve Martin? If I ever get a dog again it will be the perfect name to save me time thinking of creative names to call it when it destroys your house.
We had a cat with that name, way back when.
Thanks.. you've inspired me. :D
I named mine Homer, after Homer Simpson.
Blacktop.... Not bad :grinno: Keep em comin. And thanks much everyone! Bird351, I could see the elderly lady accross the street giving me the stinkeye now causre she'd probably think I'm calling HER that
Me and the Commander (Wife) agreed upon a name. Our new Puppy is now called Moonlight. Not too original, but better than Opal or Onyx or Spot, Rover, Max.....
She's been real easy to train so far. No accidents....YET. She whimpers a little when she wants to go out to do what she has to do. So ther I was at 3 in the morning walkin around in my jammies, coat and slippers tryin to get her to go back in when she was done.
She's definetely a creature of the night. :giggle:
