Today whist out for a walk...a dog owner was yelling for her dog in the park. At speed a Jack Russell called....Shackleton...comes flying out of some bushes.

Big name, small dog! IMO Brilliant Grin

I once knew a dog called Deefa (D for...). This was spoof from the same family who already had a rabbit called Arthur (R for...).

I love it when dogs have dull names like Colin or Steve.

My dog has a name and surname of his own.

not dogs but 2 rather rough looking moggies at our local vets called "Ronnie and Reggie aka the Kray Twins" that's exactly as the vet read it out I almost snorted out loud I laughed so much!

I knew a small terrier called Arthur (Arfa - 'alf a dog).

Trotsky for a pony is brilliant.

We once came across one called Paul while out walking, and a friend has one called Derek. Actually Derek isn't his full name, it's followed by an initial and a surname. As in Derek T. Jackson (not his actual initial and surname as that would be outing).

Met a lovely wee spaniel the other day called Caramel, I couldn't imaging shouting that across a field though, although our Doberman is called Luther (I didn't pick the name btw honest) although he does answer to stinky as he has a penchant for fox poo. I would like a dog called Kevin thoughHmm

The winner of the terrier group at Crufts last night was called Alan. His kennel club name is Saredon Enigma-like Turing's machine, hence Alan. Grin.

I think that is very cool.
