We’ll be getting her in 2 weeks and are stuck for names. Thinking Winnie but not sure. We like the idea of a human name- think Spencer if she was a male.

How about Honey for a less human name.

Sorry she’s a yellow lab! And my favourite for dogs are definitely funny human names. Love Dorris and Patricia!

Orla. Or is French for gold I love that!

Yes they're correctly called yellow but does it really matter? "Golden Labrador" just sounds lovely and everyone knows what you mean. They are the best dogs.

Our local gamekeeper always gave his gundogs (inc. yellow Lab) human names. He had Brian, Sophie, Sally, Lucy and Tina. We've had Katie and Sally.

Butters, or Blodwen which means flower in Welsh.

Primrose maybe?

Also, Ellie, Sissy, Crystal, May, Fern, Lily, Lucy, Ivy.

There are so many lovely names for female dogs, we've always had male dogs in our family and I find they are much harder to find names for.
