Dog name - that either isn’t a person name, or is a very unusual person name?

[Dogname]

Picking up our dog soon and can’t think of a name!

I prefer dog names that either aren’t people names - or are very unlikely people names.

So far I like:
Digby
Peanut
Pippi
Rocco

But not feel quite perfect.

Anyone want to give me some suggestions?

My kids like all names from kids’ movies they’ve seen or books they’ve read! So any unusual names that come from kids’ books (hence Pippi) or just any suggestions really! Would be so helpful!

Basingstoke. I like place names for dogs.

[Mesmeri]

Except Basingstoke's a bit long to shout across the park.

Is it a girl or boy?

We have a Bert, I know it’s a people name but not one you hear much

Bracken
Sedge
Dennis (Dennis’ are dying out apparently so definitely comes under unlikely)

This is my kids dog name ideas list....just realised one name is on there twice.

[MaitlandGirl]

We’ve got a Franklin and will be getting a Nero soon.

elQuintoConyo Love the thought of someone yelling Caravaggio, Piddles or Chicken at the top of their lungs as said dog runs off over the horizon

One of mine has the name of a king mentioned in the old testament, and the other is from a victorian poem (and son of a great warrior). It confuses people!

The cats are physicists and a historical programmer

[DeborahAnnabelToo]

Love the sausage dog names!

[BernardsarenotalwaysSaints]

CMOT mine is named after a popular milky coffee, because I dropped some coffee on her head during our first cuddle & Nescafe didn’t have the same ring to it

Mine was called ‘Bay’, that would work for short!

[elQuintoConyo]

Oh, and a friend used to have an Irish wolfhound called Oola after the noise the aliens make in War of the World's. Was great shouting that over the hills!

Yes the sausage dogs were an awesome little group.
