Dog Names – Popular Or Unique?
Jun 10th, 2008 by Lacy Holly
Dog names have probably been on your mind quite a bit lately. What exactly do you want to name your new puppy? Choosing the best dog names is very important because it is something you will be saying several times a day for the next several years as your dog grows up and lives with you. You want it to at least be a name you will enjoy yelling.
You could consider regular people names such as Beth or Mikey. There have also been owners who have named their dogs after movie stars such as the good ole Lassie and of course, who can forget The Beast from the movie The Sand Lot?
You have a lot more wiggle room for creativity when naming a dog as opposed to a human. So make sure you come up with some awesome dog names that will get a lot of comments from visitors. This is your opportunity to have a lot of fun.
You can go with a dog name that describes your dog, such as Fur Ball, Tiny, Giant, Beast. You can also go with one of the more common dog names such as Fido, Rover, Spot and so on.
I think naming a huge dog tiny and a very small dog something that makes it sound large and fierce would be hilarious. The best thing about naming your dog is that there are no rules. You can name it what ever you want.
My friend named her black and white dog Oreo, which I thought was pretty clever. My mother named her black lab Sadie. So as you can see, there is a huge spectrum you can choose to go with.
You can literally name your dog after anyone or anything. Ranging from disliked relatives to childhood friends to even super heroes, foods, cities or anything else you can think of.
Just make sure you are never ashamed to use the name you choose for your dog when out in public. This is why profanity and other degrading words are not the best to use for dog names.
