He looks very dignified to me. The Latin word for dignified is gravis, so that would be it for my 2p.

I see a few others have said it, but my first thought was Monty.

Littlethingsmeanalot · 28/05/2023 16:08

I like Monty too.

I met a couple with a dog in a shop the other day, the dog was called bill. Nearly made me laugh when his owner said it. 😂

I knew a couple with a dog called Malcolm. TBF, he was Swiss and she was from the US.
But Malcolm, really? 😂

Another vote for Monty but short for Montmorency, the dog in "Three Men in a Boat", who is my favourite fictional dog.
He'd only be called by his full name when he was naughty.
So, never. But he'd be a secret Montmorency.
DH says Pickle though.

BronnauMawrion · 28/05/2023 18:26

My dad has a dog just like this. He has a human name, but is such a pickle he is mostly known as "little bastard"

Arewehumanorarewecupboards · 28/05/2023 19:02

What is he called now? You said he’s a rescue?

He is beautiful.

I like Banjo or Zebadee (however you spell it!) because I would imagine that he will be bouncy and highly strung as he is a springer! 😂

HerMammy · 28/05/2023 20:39

@ilovepixie
I know a daniel the spaniel 🤣 also a john the spaniel 🤣

Oh wow there are some cracking new suggestions!

He has had two names so far but doesn't know either of them sadly. Has mostly been crated 24/7 and/or locked in the dark for most of his life.

The three most suggested names so far are all brilliant - and belong to a previous dog of mine, one of my Dad's, and one of my grandfather's dogs - so at least I know you are all very much on my wavelength Smile and thank you all so much!

I will update with photos - now an anxious wait and all the visits etc before we can properly fall in love.
