Your Dogs Name: Why You Chose The Dog Name You Did

[Fran101]

We have used Dukes of Hazard names also. We had a dog named Roscoe (Shar-pei mix) so when we got our Chihuahua we decided to name her Daisy. Tanner's original name was Clayton but my husband suggested his current name because he was tan colored. Kota was originally Dakota, but his name was shortened by my daughter and it stuck. We had a dog named Dutch because we had gotten her from an Amish family.

I have no idea why Lynn's name is Lynn. I just liked it!

Ruckus was named Ruckus because I thought it was cool and tuff sounding. but he is actually named after uncle Ruckus from the Boondocks. We were going to name Lynn Jasmine from the boondocks, but it just didnt stick.

We didn't actually choose our dog's name- he came with it. We bought him from a woman who breeds dogs continuously, and she goes through the alphabet every time one of her dogs gives birth. My dog happened to be born on the 'O', so his name (oskar) as well as all of his siblings names begin with 'O'!

My beagle is named Silver because she was born with one eye. We named her after the pirate long john silver.

Gavroche's full name is Gavroche de la Rue. He was a stray that someone brought in to the clinic. I was (am) hopelessly addicted to the musical Les Mis, and Gavroche is the street urchin from that. Gavroche de la Rue literally translated means Gavroche from the Street. I luff him, he's my <3 dog ^.^

When we first went looking for 'the perfect puppy' my daughter went searching out names....we told her she could name the pup we get. A friend has a gorgeous Golden Retriever named Riley....my daughter loved it (and the dog) So Riley he is
