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?!

Ooh she's so cute.

Betsy is a fine name, I'd go for that.

Some gorgeous names.

She seems to respond to Margot but DD now loves Octavia.

Not a stupid name at all (says Herc)

Out of your name choices she looks like a Beatrice to me. Solid and full of character with a bit of a stubborn streak 😊

I think Cassie.

She looks like a Lola

Noyournevergunnagetit · 10/10/2020 20:09

She is beautiful!
Pippa is lovely and suits her well!
I got poppy or daisy when I saw her though!

Muriel (Moo) or Liffey

picosandsancerre · 10/10/2020 20:11

Gorgeous but for me it would be piper not pippa. She is super cute and anything you pick will be cool. Octavia is really odd Grin
