Time is running out.

PP didn’t say it meant dog though. They were referring to the fact that it’s the no 1 stereotypical dog name.

(As a side note, if someone wanted to use a Latin title as a name surely the one that makes most sense is Augustus)

Show quote history

I didn’t say it meant anything either?
