…to ask what’s the best dog name you’ve ever heard?

[Whadda]

Funny/cute/witty/daft… let’s hear ‘em.

Elvis!!

A friend of mine has a dog called Winnie. Not unusual for little old ladies to turn around when he calls her.

I like pets with human names, an ex boyfriend had a dog called Graham.

In the park where I take my dog, there’s a man with a dog called Atticus, he’s really bouncy and playful (the dog) and it always makes me smile when his owner is shouting ‘Atticus stop that’ I’ve also heard of a dog called Pinecone which I love, I might steal that one for my next dog!

My lovely cocker spaniel was named Song Thrush on her papers (hunting bred but she was allergic to grass so clearly would never be able to hunt), I used to call her River for River Song. It suited her as she was so full of energy and her long hairs on her ears always flowing.

Denzl the labrador

Bucket the pug

Doug the dog. Although people mishear when we tell them his name and think his name is Dog.

A french pug called Toast.

My Boss's Daughter has an English Bulldog puppy called Wilma

Lady in our local park walks a giant but handsome and gentle mastiff called Solomon.

He truly is a king of dogs.

Elvis!!

I had a cat named Elvis.

The vets (he kept getting flipping run over and breaking limbs) would call him in and shout "Is Elvis in the building!"

Disclaimer: we live semi rural and the road he got run down on sees maybe 10 cars a day. He just had extraordinarily bad road sense.

We have a dnake called Elvis!

A dachshund ( sausage dog) called hot dog and another called slinky

Jesus Christ Fenton

Absolute classic.

A rather lovely old black labrador owned my my friends parents called Gusto who loved his food and life in general!

DH's work colleague had a pug called Trevor.

Jeremy a beagle...if you know you know

My friend has a cat called Horse
(no idea why....)

Is your friend a kiwi? The Footrot Flats cat was called Horse.

I've met Nails, a tough little terrier, and James, a cocker with a rather nice quite posh owner.

Bailey

@LosingTheWill2

I met a dog today called baldrick (from black adder)

My first two cats (in about 1988) were called Edmund and Baldrick

Willoughby

@pussycatunpickingcrossesagain

or Fenton...

Thanks for the reminder. Just been crying with laughter at the YouTube clip again.

I had a hamster called Dave James and another called Nick. My sisters was called Alan.

Had a rat called Dangerous Beans, thanks to Terry Pratchett. His ratty friend was Justin, after the rats of NIMH book.

Ian

I used to have two cats, brothers, who were polar opposites of each other. One large, dopey, passive, no common sense. The other smaller, wiry, bossy, whip smart.

They had to be George and Lennie.
