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

I think he looks like a Gus!

GreenEyedDevil · 10/03/2021 15:29

He’s so cute. I think Jensen, Bruno or Barney.

sunflowersandbuttercups · 10/03/2021 15:31

Bruno, for sure. He looks like a Bruno.

He is SUPER cute by the way Grin

Whatever you choose, you have to be comfortable yelling it out loud in public Grin

Omg

We have an 11 week old Doberman,

She has outgrown her bed Grin

She's called Sadie Smile

Felifox · 11/03/2021 12:05

My goodness he's a bundle of gorgeousness. Just want to give him a big hug.

Bertie (I had bassets)
Hendricks - Hendy for short
Augustus - Gus for short

I named our colourpoint persian Sapphire, the minute she went upstairs she wasn't a bit dainty so I said she was more of a Podge and it stuck

Lots of great ideas here. Nothing to add but honestly. He is just lovely. You dont see too many Dobies around these days.

Doberwow · 11/03/2021 20:05

Any dog name has to be able I think to be called out in a public place without sounding an idiot.

Jesse seems to pass that test for me. Beautiful puppy.

Longdistance · 11/03/2021 21:10

Roscoe is a cracking name for a Doberman.

MyView2 · 11/03/2021 21:23

So what’s the update op? Have you officially named little Stanley yet? (See what I did there? 😉)

Chloemol · 11/03/2021 22:01

He looks like a Rupert to me

tararabumdeay · 11/03/2021 22:23

Jem short for Jeremy but he's only called his full name when he's in trouble.

Aka Jemmy, Wemmy, Bemmy, Jay, Jay babe, Bae Jay, Jaybie Wabie, Jaybie Wabie Baby.

BrownEyedGirl80 · 11/03/2021 22:24

Rolo after the chocolates as he's the same colours

Personally, I think you can never possibly go wrong with St John (pronounced Sinjun) for a dog. As Burt Bacharach wrote in his original draft lyrics before changing them to something that scanned better, "what the world needs now is loads more canine St Johns".

WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll · 12/03/2021 01:07

Any dog name has to be able I think to be called out in a public place without sounding an idiot.

And if there's any inkling that he might become over-friendly with passing females who demand you call him off them, whatever you do, don't name him Caesar Grin

Redsquirrel5 · 12/03/2021 01:43

He ‘s gorgeous.

Hugo
Friends had a pointer called Floyd I always thought that was a good name for a dog.
Rex, aunty had a stud dog called Rex short easy to spell/ call.

We had dobermans growing up. They were Fritz and Shultz.
