Male names for a dog

It me with names we can call a dog please.

We have Monty (passed away) Betsy and Murray.

It must be a human name and I like old man names. Percy is my favourite so far but open to suggestions please.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

There are some great names here. Thank you

He is a greyhound. We already have two and we had a third who died last week.

We want to avoid M names as both our boys are (were) M.

My friend has a pug called Brian. Which is fab.

I think Roger is a good name for a dog. Or Richard.
My dog is called Dave. He's the best dog in the world

Basically you need to be calling a middle aged man's name out in the park.

Or something like Marmaduke. Or Fido.

I knew a dog called Roach. I asked the owner if he was called that because he had a part missing. But apparently not.

...my children are obsessed with Nick Cope at the moment.

Also met a Golden Retriever called Chris the other day whose owner also used to have a dog called Phillip.

littlealexhorne · 17/06/2020 23:59

Percy is so cute! Alternatives could be Frank, Stanley or Rodney? I love old man names on dogs too.
