Does this dog look like a .... or an....? Or another name entirely?

Friend has got a new dog and is struggling to fix on a name. She's a 7 month old Highland Maltie ( Westie Maltese cross) and is very pretty, loving and feisty. She's a real livewire!
I have suggested two names... Mabel (because he got her in May and the second half of Mabel sounds like belle ie. beautiful) or
Sylvie because this means 'from the forest' and I think she looks like a little woodland creature.
Foxy has been ruled out because although she looks a little like an Arctic Fox my friend wants a name that clearly denotes her sex.

What do we think of these names? Or can any one suggest anything else? I promise to let you know what he chooses in the end smile

Pics attached. Thanks!

Love Mabel.
I also like Heidi.

Fox is such a lovely name! Never mind... I don't think a twee name would suit her somehow. Does it have to be a person's name?

What about Alaska?

Smile It's good seeing what others think. Heidi is cute! Not sure about Alaska as it doesn't sound distinctly female, at least to me. Dot is cute but I think he's after a name that is a bit sing-songy iyswim, so maybe two syllables. Crystal makes me think of Crystal Carrington (showing my age here... ha ha!) No, it doesn't have to be a person's name but I think it needs to be feminine because he doesn't want to be asked constantly whether his dog's male or female.

My dog wears a pink harness and lead, I still get asked what sex she is 🙄

I'minaglasscaseofemotion: Minnie was in my mind too because she's small and a minx! Ha ha

What do we think of Jenny? Jennifer apparently means white shadow...and she is currently following him everywhere!

ChardonnaysPetDragon: very cute but it's the name of one of his closest relatives so a no go.

Fair enough! Grin

SoapyChoc · 06/05/2021 17:35

I think she looks like a Lucy or a Poppy

bringbackfonzi · 06/05/2021 17:36

What a lovely puppy! I like Sylvie and Jenny. Also Gwen, which I think has something to do with white.

BuddhaAtSea · 06/05/2021 17:38

She looks like a Rosie :)

BellaVida · 06/05/2021 17:58

I think she looks like a Winnie, a Bonnie or a Dotty

itwa · 06/05/2021 17:59

Jenny always makes me think of Forest Gump Grin

Standrewsschool · 06/05/2021 18:02

She’s gorgeous. She suits Mabel.

Other Suggestions-

Alba, means white, and also Scotland

MrsMackesy · 06/05/2021 18:10

She looks like an Isla or a Luna to me. Isla is popular in both Scotland and Malta, meaning island and is the name of a Scottish river. Luna means moon and links to her colour.
