Hello all! I need a name for my new puppy She is an Australian cattle dog (blue heeler) puppy and I am picking her up this weekend!
The problem with naming this puppy is that I work at a dog kennel. So itās difficult to find a name that I donāt already associate with a dog from work (ie: [name_u]Paisley[/name_u] is a lab that barks incessantly and eats poop ).
I am looking for short names - preferably one syllable or two if the name flows well. We named our other dog [name_m]Diesel[/name_m] and find that we use a shortened nickname most of the time. So I would like to avoid that, if possible.
I also donāt want any names that are already common dog namesā¦ No [name_f]Bella[/name_f], [name_f]Roxy[/name_f], paisley, etc. And I like human names for dogs, but Iām very open to anything! We almost had our minds made up to name her Crumpet. But then my SO decided to rethink our choice.
A couple of our possible name choices are [name_f]Fern[/name_f], [name_f]Mae[/name_f], and [name_f]Olive[/name_f].
I avoided ones that end in O because Iāve heard that it would just end up confusing trying to say āNo, [name_u]Bo[/name_u]!ā [name_u]Piper[/name_u], [name_f]Brie[/name_f], [name_f]Ada[/name_f], [name_f]Callie[/name_f], [name_f]Demi[/name_f], [name_f]Edie[/name_f], [name_f]Elle[/name_f], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], [name_u]Jacey[/name_u], [name_u]Jessie[/name_u], [name_u]Josie[/name_u], [name_f]Jolie[/name_f], [name_f]Lizzy[/name_f], [name_f]Maisie[/name_f], [name_f]Perla[/name_f], [name_u]Rory[/name_u], [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_u]Zuri[/name_u]
Matching names doesnāt matter as our current group of pets donāt match at all! Haha
I totally forgot that I had suggested [name_f]Lula[/name_f] to my SO a month ago when we first started discussing. [name_m]Will[/name_m] definitely bring that one up again.
