Naming this puppy is driving me mad!

Cockapoo, fox red, boy. We have been through what feels like hundreds of names, and cannot agree. It’s only me and two dc, but there is not a single name they agree on.

Most of the standard ones have been ruled out including Teddy, Freddy, Buddy, Alfie.

I like Ziggy, I might just overrule them! Any suggestions?

He looks like my DS’s favourite cuddly toy who is called Barry.

Do you have a preference for ‘human’ names or non-human?

We did the score out of 10, and Loki won. Except autistic dc won’t accept it as it isn’t her favourite. FML.

But other dc won’t give in on her name, because he’s stubborn and he thinks he always has to give in to what she wants.

Then toss a coin for it. And tell them firmly the winner names and stop this.

Stick with Loki - lessons learnt!

Even if you name him Loki you will end up with various nicknames so your daughter could stick with calling him a nickname and then everyone sort of wins.

Stick with Loki. You did it out of ten and that was the winner.

Roger de Courcy. Think that works on all levels and o might have to get a dog and call him that
