Fun/uncommon female dog names

Help! We will be taking home a labradoodle pup next month and we cannot decide on a name. We are in agreement that we don't want it to be a really common name, but between the four of us we cannot make a decision - someone always objects. Examples of names preferred by some in the family are Clover, Coco, Dilly, Newt, Ducky, Tuna (!) and Pearl.

I have read loads of old threads and lists of dog names, but need more inspiration. Any suggestions very welcome!

I’m into human names for dogs so here’s my list….

pippa
Tilly
halle
rosie
Bonnie

Mumsnet named mine. She’s called Cheska (should be Cesca but hey). I wanted Saffron but men folk vetoed that. A mumsnetter recommended Cheska and here she is! She is very glamorous and beautiful (covered in seeds!). I think we might be the only one!

I came to suggest Chino (as in cappuccino) and saw someone already suggested this so I feel even more confident she suits this now ☺️

other suggestion is she reminds me of caramel/toffee/fudge/biscoff, some something associated with that

She looks like a Toffee or Peanut or Latte with that gorgeous colouring.

If I had a female dog I'd call her Bess, but I love human names for animals.

Flopsy

Shirley for human name

WingSlutz · 11/07/2025 20:38

Is she an Aussie doodle? You could call her Sheila?!

82Songs · 11/07/2025 20:58

@WingSlutz Yes, she is and Australian Labradoodle - well spotted! Sheila is a fab idea, but we've finally agreed on a name and are going to call her Ivy.

Both DS want Madge, because of the tv show Benidorm.

Aw love Madge for her

@CoubousAndTourmalet Great suggestion! DH and I love the name Noodle/s but both DS are dead set against it.

She looks like a Gladys to me!
