UConn James Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 For mine, the runner-up was Parker (as in, Nosy Parker). Once when I was younger and we got a brother-sister German shorthaired pointers, my dad joked that he was going to call them Spot and Stain. Then, when he called out to them, he could bellow "Come spot, come stain!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 My friends named their rat terrier Skateboard. Very fitting name for the little guy. I like to name my dogs people names. Sam, Grace, Penny, Eddie, Kevin... next one is going to be Gary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 My current dogs name is Alabama. I picked that name because my favorite movie "True Romance" stars Patricia Arquette playing Alabama Whirly. My last dog, Guinness was chosen because I drink too much. For my future fury friend Ezio Sprite Altair Or my personal Favorite :Socrates Anyone else got some gems? If my dog was a little dog, the name would be Tasker. Named for the amazing Buffalo Bills player, not the douchbag announcer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 We named our dog Buzzy -- after Buzzy's in Niagara Falls, NY. We considered "Duff," but that didn't fit him. We were tempted to name him Diogi (as in D-O-G). Maybe our next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) I always liked the names of my two most recent dogs: Obi and Fozzie. My uncle had a dog named Thor, and I grew up with a grandfather who named his dogs Shorty I and Shorty II. When I was a kid we raised standard poodles. My favorite one was about 85lb when he was grown and just huge...I named him "Brute", and the name was very fitting. Dogs are cool.

boyst Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 farm story: My grandpa never really named his dogs. It was always the old speckled dog, the puppy, merle, the 3 legged, etc. etc. You didn't call them by name, you whistled. A few whistles a few times for different things, they would fetch, get the cattle, etc. They were Australian Shepherds, blue merle usually. We have a lot of stray puppies left out here in the country and I have gave a few away. Charlie, Ellie, Alpo, Dixie and Whisper were a few dogs names I had come up with.

GoodBye Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 My family used to raise Guide dogs for the blind when I was growing up. Some of them had cool names. Let's see if I can remember all of their names: Elvis (A lab) Harmony (A lab) Luca (German Shepherd) Baxter (German Shepherd) Ramos (Golden Retriever) Some of our own dogs growing up, all of them German shepherds: Hanna Fritzi Grindle Sophie (my parents current dog) Awesome dog!

DPR4444 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 A long time ago, my family adopted a new dog - husky shepherd mix. I named him Fred after Fred Smerlas, who had just blocked that field goal against the Jets in the division - clinching win. Best dog we ever had.

Fixxxer Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I was always afraid of my friend's bloodthirsty black doberman named Nippur. The dog was trained to defened the owners and the house, it was literaly a puppy with the owner and a serial killer with everyone else. Nippur de Lagash was a comic book character created here in Argentina. The character was a nomad and vicious killer. That name is awesome if your dog isn't a chihuahua or some other small breed.

Nippur de Lagash was a comic book character created here in Argentina. The character was a nomad and vicious killer. That name is awesome if your dog isn't a chihuahua or some other small breed. And your neighbors aren't Asian. We've had a few: My dad's: Pud (yes, seriously) Shasta Digger Bella Walker Peanut Mine: Bosley Jessie Ashley Auslese (Owsh-Lay-sa), which means "Selection" in German. Dante (appropriate, because he was the freakin' devil) Diesel Molly Bosley is the only one we actually named and the only one we got as a puppy. The rest were rescues and we didn't want to add to the trauma in their lives by changing their names. Diesel is the only one whose name doesn't fit him at all. He's a complete goofball.
