Name my puppy

Getting this little guy v soon and having an ongoing household debate about what to call him.

He’s a papillon x poodle, with 4 white paws, a white bib and white tip of his tail. He will be tiny when fully grown, about 3.5kg.

To complicate things I actually need two names for him as hopefully he’ll be doing agility, so he’ll need a kennel club name too. It would be nice to have his KC name and pet name connected in some way but that’s not a deal breaker.

I don’t want a human name, ideally.

What do you all reckon? (Uploading pic so it will hopefully eventually appear)

I love the PPs’ suggestions of Guinness and Panda.
From a bird theme, Penguin or Puffin.

Gnasher. Or Wilf. For agility he could be Howlin' Wilf.
