This is our boy, he is a Doberman and will be coming home on April 1st.

Myself and my partner cannot for the life of us agree on a name! We have two daughters and couldn't come up with a short list had they been boys! Blush

We also have a silver grey Maine Coon named Prince, a Bengal named Tig and a bunny named Jasper (bunno)

One of his brothers is being named Jackson and the other Norman.

Please help Grin

Toby?

I always wanted a Doberman called Toby as a kid. Dunno why! He is so beautiful!

He suits Boris.

Hugh? He is arriving on St Hugh's day. Or Joker, another link to April first.

Following on from the 1st April theme, how about Ledger?

Actually, I like Bob!

Snausageandmash · 09/03/2021 07:13

Carry on the SOA theme Grin (Tig and Jackson) and call him Opie!

FastFood · 09/03/2021 07:14

Looks like a Vlad, a Fiodor, a Sacha or a Youri to me!

But to be honest he could be called Bisto or Worcestershire Sauce, he would still be adorable.

Eckhart · 09/03/2021 07:17

Barker.

I think all dogs should be called this. But I only thought of it after I named my dog, so, you have to call your dog that, @Emlou07

Deal?

Cool Smile

Also, can I have him, please?

Oh my goodness, that is a beautiful dog!

If our dog was male, he would have been Bojo or Boris!, weve got a girl, she's called Maggie. Neither of usvare Tory supporters, honest!

Aww he's so cute! Woody or Red?

MrsRockAndRoll · 09/03/2021 08:43

He is ridiculously cute!

I like Boris too

GingersHaveSoulsToo · 09/03/2021 08:53

We have called our pup Buzz after the astronaut and it is a great dog name (DD11 is very into space).

However we really should have called him Dobbie after the house elf, as he loves socks and steals them (and hats and gloves...) at any opportunity. He trots about proudly carrying them in his mouth.

I hope you have a fab time with your gorgeous pup!

Looks like a Henry to me. He's adorable

Great name. My first dog, also a doberman, was called Henry. A colleague had a border collie called Humphrey, which I thought also quite suitable.

Boris, though? I don't know how you can inflict the baggage of being named after the current useless lump of a PM on a poor innocent little puppy, even if it's an ok name in itself. Fair enough while it's at the pooping over everything stage, but far less appropriate when it's grown into a beautiful, sleek, intelligent, faithful companion.

Spied · 09/03/2021 09:07

He looks like an Oskar or Otto to me.

Easterbunnygettingready · 09/03/2021 09:08

@haveapieceoftoast - You're assuming I'm not adopting him from an abandoned bitch...

Thank you for the suggestions!
