Name for a boy puppy?

I know this should be in Pets but indulge me for once.

What would you name a little GSD puppy (black and tan)?

Is Kaiser to chavvy/neddish?

Rover - if Ivy and Violet can come back into fashion, Rover can't be long behind them, surely?

I wanted to call him Mac (after maccyd's but DH said no!)

Don't think DH would be too pleased with that though as we used to have a Rover car and the bl**dy thing was always breaking down!

Oisin (pronounced Ush-een) is always a good one! Not too many of them aroung in the UK so it'd be original.

We used to have a white GSD and called him 'Levendi' Greek meaning 'hansome one' or something like that anyway !

dublindee · 04/12/2005 00:01

That's a lovely name!

OhlittletownofEIDSVOLD · 04/12/2005 02:48

I wouldn't give a German Shepherd (that's GSD means?) an aggressive name like Kaiser. To answer your question, I do think it's a bit chavvy.

magnolianMistletoe · 04/12/2005 12:02

Why on earth is Kaiser aggressive??

Call him whatever you want, but of course something which will sound ok if you are screaming it at a dog thats run off

There was a lady at the park the other day calling 'Dave' really loudly and I though she had lost her sone!! Nope it was her dog

magnolianMistletoe · 04/12/2005 12:03

Actually she had lost her son!!

magnolianMistletoe · 04/12/2005 12:03

FFS!! She hadn't lost her son it was her dog but I was trying to correct my crappy typos

Kidstrack2 · 04/12/2005 12:11

Winston, Dylan, Kaz, Ben oh the list goes on, can you tell my mum used to keep dogs!

Pinotmum · 04/12/2005 12:28

My friend has just bought a choc brown labradour and called him Dave - LOL. My ds aged 3 yo kept calling him Boy though and it sounded sweet. If I had a dog I'd call it Cassius but don't ask me why?

magnolianMistletoe · 04/12/2005 12:35

pmsl!! Why such human names?? I find it really weird. Although its worse for boy dogs. Ours are girls and called Maisy and Jesse but then I wouldn't call a child either of those names

magnolianMistletoe · 04/12/2005 12:36

Of course anyone on here with a daughter called maisy or Jesse will now want to kick me

PantomimEDAMe · 04/12/2005 13:16

Kaiser is aggressive because it's the term for a German Emperor as in Kaiser Bill (Wilhelm) who was our enemy in WW1.

Our Beagle is called Oliver (really liked the name at the time) but I really really wish we'd called him Smeagol (from LOR)

He always gets Oliver Smeagol or Smeagol Beagle.

Just love that name

shanks313 · 04/12/2005 14:10

We had a gsd/collie as our last dog and he was Bailey,it suited him perfectly

Rosefairy · 04/12/2005 14:20

Deefer, Max or oscar

Pinotmum · 04/12/2005 14:38

What about Brian?

jenk1 · 04/12/2005 14:48

We have just bought a lhasa apso puppy and have called him CHE- pronounced SHAY, my mum also has one and he is called CHARLIE!
