Suggested names for Vizsla

24 replies

MoshiMoshi · 08/02/2011 15:34

We are getting a new puppy (a bitch) in late March/early April which was born last week. It is a Hungarian pointer called a Vizsla. The kids and I are busy thinking of names and have so far thought of Kiki and Ruby. I love Kiki as it comes from a cute Japanese film called Kiki's Delivery Service. DH hates the thought of calling out "Kiki!" across the common though. I think he is happier with Ruby but it seems quite popular and we would like something less common to avoid dog confusion (we live in London). Does anybody have any ideas? The kids are aged 1, 4, 5 and 7 so the only one who might find it tricky to pronounce a name would be the youngest (who turns 2 in April). Open to all suggestions. Thanks in advance.

My Aunty and Uncle had two female Vizlas when I was a child, a mum and daughter, beautifuls dogs!
They were called Sadie and Tootie, when Sadie died they then got a male called Rommel.

Hungarian names :

Amalia, meaning work.

Eva, meaning alive.

Kati, meaning pure.

Marta, meaning lady.

Sara, meaning princess.

Can you make a name from her mum and dad's names?

MoshiMoshi · 09/02/2011 14:29

Thank you for the suggestions! Not sure of dad's name but the mum is called Vixen. She also has a lovely KC name which is very smart. I wondered about continuing the Rudolf theme with Dasher but my DH doesn't like it.

What do people think of Bella? I fear it is too popular nowadays. Other ideas are Tigger, Koko, Bobo, Mimi (can you tell I like repetition in a name?) None of which DH likes of course (along with Sadie and Eva).

izzybiz · 10/02/2011 07:07

Koko's nice!

Some friends here in Hungary have just got a Viszla puppy and called her Lottie.

We have 2 female labs called Codie and Tara. A friend has two called Bronte and Bella.

MoshiMoshi · 10/02/2011 15:59

wishingchair - we liked Lola too but we have a daughter called Lily and decided it was too similar as lots of her nicknames are Lola-like as you can imagine.

Laughing at Rizla and Razzle Dazzle!

Izzybiz - I am really keen on Koko. Might have to get to work on DH with that one.

Buda - ah ha! A Bella is out there. I suspect there are a lot of Bellas around. We know a Lottie so that rules out that one. Codie and Tara sound good together!

Plonker · 10/02/2011 23:20

How about Pearl

scurryfunge · 10/02/2011 23:30

Was she once a winner, plonker?

COCKadoodledooo · 10/02/2011 23:33

I'd go with CalamityKate's suggestion Grin

But I'd also call a Great Dane Hamlet, so feel free to ignore...
