Spent ages thinking of a name we both love and low & behold my work friend has just used it on her new puppy!!

The only saving grace is that she's left work so chances are we will just be Facebook friends from now on as we live quite a distance from each other etc.

But it has put me off using the name now.

So we feel we are back to square one. We like names ending in y and not too popular.

I agree - it's just a dog and you're only going to be facebook friends don't let it affect your decision. Also agree with above pp - name your next pet after her (or pretend you have - maybe a nice bald rat or something..)

Get a dog and give it your friend's name.

no reason you can't still use it!

The kid will probably love sharing a name witth a dog

dog life expectancy is only about 10 anyway, so not a life long doubler
