Don’t utterly gorgeous names of course

New puppy- everyone here has a dog called Archie, Alfie or Teddy and of course they’re popular because they’re great names- I want to yell a name and only have one dog come back Grin

I have a list to do for the kids and husband for this little fella as nobody can agree

I like Bellamy (after the ledge that is David Bellamy)
Brian (fab name for a Dog I think )
Rufus
Tank
Bowie (Dave was a hero ) 😊

Family hate all of those

This is not him but a photo that’s a very close
Resemblance

Save me from The name Alfie and Archie please

I can give you my 'saved' name.....i want to call a dog Jethro. Love the name and closer than I have ever been to actually living the dream and getting a dog so watch this space :)

Fenton

My friend’s dog is called Biggles and he’s very cute too.

Otherwise, Gazza, Norman and Fred are my faves.

I love Brian for a dog!
Archibald as a compromise?
Bertie?

Ronnie (Barker). You can bellow Ronald at him when he’s being a git.

DietCoke1 · 13/01/2020 14:29

Ozzie!

VinceTheMafiaBoss · 13/01/2020 14:30

Spud!

olderthanilookapparently · 13/01/2020 14:30

Marty?

Miller?

LadyLindaT · 13/01/2020 14:31

I tend to agree with Saen.
Brian is a brilliant name for a dog.
Then again, I know a cat called Ben.
A female cat called Ben.....
I believe there was some initial confusion on both sides, but it now sorts of suits her.

Doug

NoSauce · 13/01/2020 14:32

Winston or Colin.

Baxdream · 13/01/2020 14:32

Love the name rufus!

I have a Baxter

WhyOhWine · 13/01/2020 14:32

My favourite name for my future dog is Ronnie (Barker).
As it will be another 2 or 3 years before I will be in a position to get a dog, you are very welcome to use it.

MyCatHatesEverybody · 13/01/2020 14:33

Didn't David Bellamy hold some polarising views about climate change? Might be slightly controversial.

I like Brian.
