NC. We've had to name Leonbergers before but we're struggling this time. She's a girl and we're looking for something that trips off the tongue for calling and would really suit a Leonberger specifically, rather than a more general dog name. TIA.

Helga. (I'm thinking German stereotypes!)

Our neighbour has a Leonberger called Malcolm Hmm he lets himself out into the communal gardens. DC have ridden smaller ponies. Grin

Oh I love Bertha Grin

How about Lea or Heidi?

Irma or Helga?

Or a friend of mine had two Newfoundlands called Borage & Parsley.

I’d go for a human name that looks funny on a dog.

Like Sue.

Some PPs have already mentioned Bertha. If your dog is anything like the Leonbergers that my neighbour had then Big Bertha would surely be more appropriate (or will be once she's grown) Grin.

I like Maggie of Sue out of the suggestions so far.

I much prefer human names for animals.

I met a dog called Tracey the other day 🤣

I like the idea of a Germanic name. Heidi or Gretel would be super cute and easy to yell when doing recall training.
