hushm0nk3y

Hi folks, we are bringing home our new yellow labrador puppy in 3 weeks time and we need a good name for her. She was quite shy when we met her but livened up once she got used to us. She has a lovely li'l face on her and she will be treated like one of the family. Some names we short-listed are:

1. DAISY
2. DIXIE
3. WILLOW
4. SCAMPER
5. HOLLY
6. MRS. JONES
7. JUNIOR
8. NUGGET
9. MISSY
10. MOLLY

We like these names so want to know what you think and we are also open to other names you may suggest - please help us out

Downtime

Mrs jones.

dmck2886

I think Peach would be a lovly name for her.

hushm0nk3y

thank you bettyboop, we had these names but crossed them off to make our short list - thay are good all the same

hushm0nk3y

ah, now I would extend that to Peaches (sounds better when calling it out in the middle of a park) - thank you dmck - I like it

No problem

Blankie

Not sure. You know your dogs name says a lot about you too!

hushm0nk3y

Very true blankie which is why we need advice. You know, blankie isn't such a bad name either (here Blankie, good girl)

Blankie

If I were your dog and you called me blankie, Id be putting a lovely red and white blankie on a stick, throwing it across my shoulder and legging it..........

A friend of mine had a lab years ago and she was the best, friendly with the kids and very loving. she was called Sally (I stupidly turned down one of her pups 'cos we didn't have enough space in house) I would love to have a lab, they are the best dogs!:D

A dog that bears a very strong resemblance to an albino raccoon!!!

If that's a Dog well then I'm a Badger!!

Alun

What about 'Honey'? My mother-in-law had a female golden retriever called that, and I always thought it suited her to a T.

hushm0nk3y

I suggested Honey but the wife said NO - so that's the end of that one

Hagar

In Boards tradition how about Atari or Jaguar? Maybe Arty or Jag for short.

Loomis

Yay Holly is winning!
I chose that cause that's what the girlfriend's dog was called.She died just before Christmas.Aww
You have to call her Holly now!

Well, the replacement for Honey was christened 'Flora' for some reason or another. Not a name that says anything to me, but maybe .... ?

hushm0nk3y

Flora - not bad , she is a yellow puppy after all.

It certainly isn't a dog, by any stretch of the imagination.

nice one bettyboop, I thought of buí as I though it would be unusual and original but it just wouldn't suit her - great idea though

mountainyman

What about milis or cuddles?

MM

hushm0nk3y

well looks like Holly and Daisy are in the lead so far

Blankie

Come on Holly!!!! What about Hitch (that's if you were a Hitchcock fan?)

If it come to a photo-finish, how about Dolly??:D

hushm0nk3y

Good one Vinnie, it may just come to that. Blankie, the wife is a huge Hitchcock fan so not sure if I want another reminder running around the house

hushm0nk3y

Daisy has just taken the lead...

cailingaelach

How about feabhra? thats what we called our labrador when I was younger! Obviously we got her in february! Anyway she lived until she was 16! Still miss her!

hushm0nk3y

sorry to hear that cailing, hopefully our li'l puppy will live a long happy 16 years too

I had a dog called "dfor", got it from some T.V show years ago.

Padjo1981

Well if you think that is a dog you prob should not have it

My dog called Lucy but I think Muffin is a really nice name

Fast_Mover

i was going to suggest Lucy or Milley???

hushm0nk3y

Come on folks, need you all to vote and the winning name will be used

hushm0nk3y

Any more voters? Daisy is in the lead so far.

Blankie

Glad to see Holly is catching up

fits

Willow is a lovely name, I'd prefer it to the rest.

I once met a lovely labrador called Arwen, thats nice too

FranknFurter

Had a dog called "Skollob" (read it backwards....named by his elderly previous owner), lived to be 15,.....I do miss that ball of fluff. (he was a pomeranian),........

altho, on second thoughts, maybe not an ideal name for a female.

llanero

A photo of the pup would be helpful for us.
How a puppy looks like is mighty important to the naming process.:)


By the way, having spent many hours of my youth pursuing raccoons, I can attest to the fact that that white "dog" is indeed an albino Procyon lotor and NOT a doggy.

hushm0nk3y

This is the best pic I have although a bit blurry

Hagar

Rollo, as in Rollo' toilet tissue.;)

hushm0nk3y

OK Daisy is still in the lead with Holly, Molly and Nugget creeping up for second place. Only a week left to vote (ensure to check out the puppy pic)

hushm0nk3y

got 1 more pic (blurry gain)

She is a beauty!! Can I be her internet Godfather when she is finally christened??

By the way my four cats, Charlie and his female clan Fergie, Gin and Bo-Bo have all asked me to tell you that you should call her any name and her personality will give you the name that she wants!:D

hushm0nk3y

cheers Vinnie - she is a beauty alright. Good idea on the naming process but we thought we would let the great public help us out as we are at a loss. She looks more like a Holly every time I see her though - which may cause a problem!

Bettyboop

that is gonna be one spoiled dog me thinks:D
an absolute beauty.Are you going to breed her??
her puppies would be gorgeous:)
