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

If you like Bowie, what about Ziggy?

TrueToad · 13/01/2020 16:28

I've got a dog called Brian Grin (NC for this post!)

Our late dog was called Trevor. Next dog will probably be called Keith (but only if a certain breed). We also like Alan.

Yours looks like a bit like a Gordon but possibly too small for that name...maybe James or Jameson..something with a J. Jeff...Jerry?

I called my eldest dog Riley.

He's one of 3 Rileys in the village and we've met lots of others too

Hmm

Next one is being called Bungle as I've never heard anyone shouting Bungle across a field.

My baby is Bertie. I’ve never met another and every doggy person we meet appears to like it.

He's gorgeous. You could call him Edward, Teddy for short. He looks like a teddy bear.

ForkHandlesplease · 13/01/2020 16:47

Shadow, as he'll follow you everywhere
hoover, he'll eat anything he can
Dexter, murderously handsome
Morse, clever
also a fan of Brian, Derek Wilfred Oscar

This is our new arrival, Digby, interested to see it's been put forward here a few times.

I also liked Bernard.

I have a Charlie. His friends are Sidney, Stanley, Billy, Henry, Rupert, Sandy and especially a French bulldog named Nigel! I think your boy looks like an Eddie or a Milo.
