Dear All

Absolutely hopeless at names, and dh is even worse, so please help!

I'd like quite a strong, masculine name as he'll probably be quite a big boy (ooh er, missus!) and so far we have:

Grigg (from the Jane Austen Book Club - my fave so far)

Bryn

Glyn

Many thanks, folks!

Bella

Does no-one like Grigg?!

You've got to find a name that you're happy to yell at the top of your voice in the local park/in the garden etc. We had one dog that 'humbug' would have suited in terms of appearance and temperament, but we didn't want to have to shout that.

Something like Jasper is great as it has a hard start to the name and a strong start to the second sylable as well. I think that probably Glyn and Grigg would be less easy to shout - Bryn would probably work (I think Gs are more difficult at volume than Bs)

Good luck finding one!

Grigg sounds like you are saying Greg with an Aussie accent.

Othello.

Correction, Fou, Grigg sounds like you are trying to say Greg in a Kiwi accent, definitely not Aussie

Sniff!

I would love a dog called sniff

Or I like people names for dogs, maybe Dave? My friend had a dog called Simon when we were kids!

My neighbours have got a big yellow labrador called Jasper. Suits him very well so another vote for that.
