Does she look like a Pamela to you?

[QueenCheese]

We’re adopting this gorgeous one.

We have decided to change her name.

I love 70s human names it appears-
She’s a very funny dog and has a wonderful personality not dissimilar to the mum from “Gavin & Stacey” hence the Pam

Family aren’t too keen on my suggestion of Pam and Barbara.

I know they’re perfectly lovely names but

Tilly
Molly
Milly
Lola
Maggie
Maisie
Bella
Rosie

Is what every other dog is called here and if you shout it you get 4 dogs coming back - cutesie names are out too.

Kids have helpfully suggested Dave and Barry 😂

Oh MN wise folk- hit me with suggestions please

Looks more like a Hebe to me.

Pamela and Barbara are a bit 'Abigail's Party'

What was her name 'before'?

Helen I reckon

She looks more like a Shirley to me

Prudence x

How about Babs?

Definitely a Daphne or Chantal.

She is def a 'Shirley'.

Mil is Pamela and bloody awful.
How about Margo?

I love it and think it suits her! One of my dogs is called Roy (in pic) and whenever people hear his name they think it's funny and I've had people say they love it. Only negativity I had was from family members when I first got him but they are used to it now. Congratulations on your beautiful new girl and it's always good to be a bit different.

She's a phoebe! Definitely.

I love Pam and Babs

Oh she’s a Pamela!! She’s beautiful! We have a Penelope, though everyone except me just calls her Penny.

I’d choose a name that sounds close-ish to her old name, to help her learn it and settle in.

What is her current name? I’d choose something similar sounding. Poor thing having her name changed.

I also suggested Babs which was lukewarm

Phoebe is a beautiful name but too cute I think

Shirley
Margo

Are in the list LOVE them

Isadora- we’ve always rescued and within 2 weeks the dogs have happily adjusted- no “poor dog” here I don’t think

She’d have to be Pamla.

I like Barbara!

She looks like a Patricia to me

She reminds me of Tina Turner; or Diana Ross or Kate Bush.

Aww, keep her name as Pamela. My grandma was called Pamela so that's the first thing the name reminds me of, DD even has it as a middle name. My grandma was affectionately known as Pammie so you could call her that.

Pammie

Pamela is an excellent name for you dog and she absolutely suits it. There are so many ways to shorten it affectionately.

She looks like a Betty to me. Or maybe Hilda.
