We considered Bartelby but it was just too much of a mouthful

We have lots of Bella's in my area. Also Bailey's.

I don't mind human names...all of my guys have them (except Mooshie).

I'm not a fan of what I call the "sweet" names...Candy, Sugar, Precious, Angel, Sweetie. My theory is "the sweeter the name, the more evil the animal", lol. It doesn't always hold true, but I've been snapped at by more Sugar's and Angel's than Killer's and Mauler's.

I feel that when you have an original name it says more about you as the owner and the dog.

We have a lot of Dutch or Dutches. And for some reason daisy is a common name and Bella as well. It was the whole twilight thing with a lot I think lol I wonder how how Shanon named Bella after

So my elder-bully is named Rexxoit (pronounced rexx-wah). I couldn't stand the commonality of Rexx so I added a French twist to it. Name: ImageUploadedByPG Free1354475168.928074.jpg

I had a cockapoo (read: mutt) growing up named Duchess. I was five when we got her and we all had different name ideas so her full name ended up being Duchess Molly Muffin Goldie

I know my cousin's dog Bella was named for the Twilight character. Thank goodness she had more sense when naming her human children. Two boys and a girl could easily have been named Edward, Jacob and Bella lol.

i like combined names too. like how Kenny wanted to name Odin, who was Eddie from the shelter, Monsoon. so he is officially Odin Monsoon! which i yell when im real mad at him, just like how mom always uses ur full name when ur in trouble.... LOL

Lacy Lou · 12-03-2012, 01:54 AM

When I got my Staffy Lacy, I just started calling her Lacy Lou because it sounded good and my Chesapeke that I had before her was named Ruby Roo. It turned out that Lacy's name was really Lacy Lou and she is papered, but the old owner never gave them to me. He is now someplace in Georgia. Bella on the other hand came to a few months ago with her name at three years old. I do have a lynx point siamese that came to me at two with the name Princess, but I didn't like that, so now she's Princess Mouser, or Mou Mou. A I named my 14 year old cat Snowball. She really is a snowball too. 19lbs of Snowball. Just a big cat!!
Names I don't like as well are the fighting names Killer, Mauler, things like that. To me those kinds of names seem to alert to a possible fighting dog.
When I lived in Sacramento about 10 years ago, there was this guy who had this just sweer APBT that I had seen before. I saw him one day with the dog hanging by a towel in it's mouth attached to a tree branch. I was curious and asked him what he was doing. He told me that he was trying to make his dog meaner, to guard his apartment better,and that he felt that if he did that, it would work. I told him that any dog will guard it's home regardless and that was unessesary. I never saw him do it again. It was just total ignorance to me. It's one thing if you are training them for fun, but another if you are trying to make them mean. I think her name was Cutter.

our neighbor has a big white fluffy dog named Thor and he is the meanest thing! my little blue girl was starved and thrown out a truck window and someone luckily got her and took her to the vet, the vet named her "Hope" another real common one! since i got her the same day i had wiggle room to change it so i figured id keep the Hope for her middle name since the girls at the vet were so kind to her but i went with a flower. not the usual Daisy, Rose/Rosie, Lilly but Amaryllis! little miss Amaryllis Hope!
