My puppy has no name - help

Wise mumsnetters. I’ve name changed for this so it doesn’t link back to any other posts.

We have a new female cockerpoo. She’s an absolute delight, but we have no name for her. We can’t agree on anything at all.

We aren’t keen on traditional dog names and like names that can have a longer and shorter version.

Shortlist has so far included:

Nell/Nellie
Flo/Florence
Juno/June
Bea/Beatrice
Pip/Pippa

Pippa was a front runner this afternoon but it feels wrong when we call her it.

Any ideas what she looks like?!

Had my boy been a girl, he was destined to be either Paloma, Shirley or Pearl

Octavia can be shorted to Tavia or Tavvi

Of your choices I like Nell the best and Juno the worst

I think Pippa is lovely. She's adorable

Betsy was the intended name of the second Dc, who ended up being a boy. I love it.

Nell is my favourite also. DH loves Judy/Jude. I’m really not keen.

Thanks for the suggestions so far! Keen them coming. I promise I’ll update you all on our final decision - I hate it when posters don’t come back 😃

😍 shes lovely, I love all your names but my favourite is Nell / Nellie.
She might suit the name Nancy ?

RunningFromInsanity · 10/10/2020 19:38

I really like Juno

Yep. That was my thought too

Bella/bell (not Belle as that's another name 🤣)

She is adorable. I want a cuddle!

My Aunty's cocker spaniel was Betsy. She had ATTITUDE (and not in a good way!!)

DisgruntledGuineaPig · 10/10/2020 19:41

My 10 year old says she looks like a Nellie.

Geesus68 · 10/10/2020 19:42

She looks like a Vera

Geesus68 · 10/10/2020 19:42

Or a Margot. She’s beautiful

Poshjock · 10/10/2020 19:45

Oh I think she looks like a Pippa!

I like Juno, that seems to fit her too. I think she looks least like a Nell.

She is very beautiful

DonLewis · 10/10/2020 19:46

She looks like a Vera to me! Or a Daphne?
