What are the most memorable, unique, or lovely dog names you've come across that you will never forget?

I met a dog called Beetlejuice today, thought it was brilliant! I also used to know a dog called midnight, never met another one but always loved the name.

I knew a chap with a dog named after a real person - a local chap, maybe a neighbour or something? I can't recall the story but the name was something like 'Bert Wilson'. The dog was always called the full name too....Grin

You bugger..... was a guide dog (this was years ago) and the lady was a tad colourful with her language, and loved the dog. Said "Go on you bugger' so often, dog responded to that and not original name.

Deogi.
The dog on Phineas & Ferb is called this. I looked it up thinking it was some kind of Italian name or obscure geeky reference.
Felt like a right idiot when I 'got it'. Blush

There's a tiny dog, like a tiny Greyhound, called Malcolm near me. He's ace. Really skittish and mental
