New puppy - name ideas please?

We collect our new family member next week and are not sure on names - he is a male golden labrador. Any one any suggestions?

I did like custard cream but DP says he is not taking the dog to the park and shouting "custard cream" Blush

Then you could secretly call him Gustard Cream.

For a male Labrador I'd go for a human type not cute name.

Archie is good. Freddie? Arthur? Max? Bobby? Henry? Toby? Kit?

Enjoy him.

helpmum2003 · 10/03/2019 08:56

Our fox red lab is Murphy, the DC wanted to call him Cooper but I managed to talk them round...however I look at him everyday and think he’s more of a CooperHmm

FuckyNel · 10/03/2019 17:13

Might as well just call him arsehole from the beginning - you’ll be used to calling him it when he eats the skirting boards and nicks the kids chips Grin

BiggFactHunt · 10/03/2019 17:18

I wanted Axel for our lab but DH wouldn’t have it.
Should have called him Chase as I have ran after him trying to get the git back many a time.

I like 'proper' names for male animals too *and loads of the names on here have been used for male pets in my house and one for my DS Grin )

Love 'Boris;' (though DD refused that for one of our pets)

Just remember your vet will call him by name so your DH is right to refuse Custard Cream !

Why is this an argument against?! That would be hilarious.

Please call him Custard Cream.
