Names with an 'Ina' sound

48 replies

onemorecakeplease · 14/05/2019 20:28

We are hopefully rehoming a dog who's name has an 'ina' sound in it, but we don't like the name at all

Can you help me find a name with this sound in that's more dog friendly/cute for a girl dog please?

The Ina is pronounced like Tina or Gina (but not those)

I wondered about Aneena but it's not really doggy is it? Hoping to keep the same sound so it's not too much for her to learn a new name

Oh I like zena and serena

There are so many I like!!! Thank you all so much!

No the name hasn't been mentioned. It's kinda Spanish and an old fashioned British name in one but I didn't want to say it and offend anyone called that etc!

Woofylina will be what's she's called when we are snuggling for sure!!!

I know a (human) Dreena

My dog is called Otto but he answers to Bugger Lugs too. Your dog will get used to its new name really fast. Call her whatever you like, don´t restrict yourself to "Ina" names because she has had them before.

Squirrel26 · 19/05/2019 20:51

Does she definitely know her current name? If she's a rescue she may not have had it very long anyway.

FlorencesHunger · 19/05/2019 21:32

I changed my cats name completely when I got her. She answered to Jaws (nicest cat ever) so I gave her another name followed by original name and over time dropped it.

I think a dog would adapt even better deviance of ina like ninja - inja.
