Help naming male springer puppy

Hi we are getting a puppy on Friday. He is currently called big boy by the breeder because he is chunky. But I can't be calling 'come here big boy' in the park!!

He is a liver and white with no white markings on his face or tail. He reminds me of an ewok from Star Wars.

Current suggestions are:
Dave
Buddy
Charlie
Aran
Taff (don't ask my DP is Welsh)
Baggins

Everyone has their favourite but no one can agree on the same name! Would appreciate your input on which is best or any new suggestions gratefully received!

I love Ziggy for a Springer. It feels like it's full of the crazy energy springers have.

However, Daniel is genius! 😂

You're welcome Wink
You can't call a dog Dave! Every time you come home it would be like the League of Gentlemen "Hellooo Dave" lol
I've a mahoosive lab called Mr Reddington as was heavily into The Blacklist when we got him. Makes walks interesting when I have to call him back 😂

Max(imus). Because he is a Big Boy!

I knew a Dave the dog. It was much smaller tho, I can't imagine a Springer called Dave!

I love Welsh boys names but DH is English & can't agree to any of them. I've often thought if we had a dog I'd call him Dylan or Taliesin, Tal or Tali for short.

We have a 12 1/2 week old called Daniel the Spaniel - we thought we were all original like....he has his own facebook page and I found multiple other Daniel the spaniels at the same time!!

I do like 'Mr Taff' though, my Grandparents are all welsh so it does hold a soft spot for that reason.

Best of luck with him :)

Hi have spent the day trying to get the house puppy proof! Reorganised all wires and hid them. Put all shoes into wardrobes. Looked into every corner for random chewable things.

We are picking him up at 11.30am tomorrow and am super excited!

I like zeb will mention that one. The current front runner is wicket. Thanks womble.

My DM is sending me nature names - branch, bramble, willow Confused, bracken.

Will post pictures tomorrow Smile
