We haven't even been to visit her yet but getting stupidly excited at the prospect....

I love human names on dogs like Barry & Brian or Keith but she's a wee girl.

Current suggestions are

Norah
Peggy
Margot
Betsy
Skye
Bea
Hilda
Pru
Ethel
Willow
Queenie
Susan

We have three to choose from so I feel bad posting a pic in case she's not the one coming home with us Blush

It's a little of wee sprockers

Nancy?

Nancy is indeed a good name. Or Nina?

If we decide she'll eventually come home with us I'd like a name in place before the kids decide to call her Beyoncé or something....

Although to be fair the 15yr old is going through a 'retro' stage listening to Bon Jovie or Aha or Rick Astley. Am all of a sudden cool Mum as I know the words 🤣

Love Nora(h)!

SavageBeauty73 · 02/12/2018 00:02

She looks like a Nancy 🤷‍♀️😍

So jealous

MrsTommyBanks · 02/12/2018 00:03

Awww it's fab when your kids start loving your teen music.
Have you heard Aha's live mtg album. It is awesome.
But you can't call her Morton lol

Hmmm 80s female posters....Kirsty?

MrsTommyBanks · 02/12/2018 00:04

Mtg - mtv

MrsTommyBanks · 02/12/2018 00:05

Nah. Nancy just feels right to me.

poorpaws · 02/12/2018 00:20

Freckles (I know it’s not a girls name but she looks like a Freckles)

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 02/12/2018 00:26

Look at those floppy ears.
I'd call her Jennifer, as in Jennifer Eccles who had lots of freckles.Grin

FrogFairy · 02/12/2018 00:55

Nancy is a lovely name but as a fellow Bon Jovi fan I have to add Gina to the list,

TroyKing · 02/12/2018 04:47

It's ridiculous thinking of a name for a pup we've not even met yet ConfusedGrin

On a sensible note make sure whatever name you choose you are happy to shout across a crowded field in an excited high pitched voice Grin

We have just named our springer pup Meg. It really suits here and she is really adorable apart from the biting and huge amount of poop she generates. Grin

Meg is a great name but my SIL agreed and used it first HmmGrin
