What are your favorite names for dogs? What resources did you use when naming your own dog/s if you have any? I recently found Dog Names by [name_f]Jenny[/name_f] Linford and came across a couple I like (you can see the list here) but they were mostly ones I’ve heard before. [name_f]My[/name_f] current favorite is [name_m]Dax[/name_m] and I also like Woodstock for a Yorkie and [name_m]Little[/name_m] [name_f]Moon[/name_f] and Nakoa for a Siberian Husky.
I love the name [name_u]Darcy[/name_u] but that’s because I have a gorgeous Cavalier [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m] Spaniel boy named [name_u]Darcy[/name_u] 
I just thought the name sounded so regal and British, and really fit in with the breed traits
I’d also love a Siberian Husky called [name_m]Rogue[/name_m], a [name_m]Springer[/name_m] Spaniel called [name_m]Archie[/name_m] and a Dalmatian named [name_u]Penny[/name_u].
@darcydeacon
[name_u]Darcy[/name_u] does fit well with the characteristics of a Cavalier [name_m]King[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m] Spaniel, how funny! I can also see [name_m]Rogue[/name_m], [name_m]Archie[/name_m] and [name_u]Penny[/name_u] on the dogs you named. I especially like [name_m]Archie[/name_m] and [name_m]Rogue[/name_m]
@shishi
I like Anubis, [name_f]Tuesday[/name_f], [name_f]Hazel[/name_f], [name_m]Augustus[/name_m], [name_f]Juno[/name_f] and [name_u]Jace[/name_u] for a pup. It would be very interesting to encounter a dog with a name like Nephillim or Lycanthrope, I like it! Reminds me of the time I came across a young pit bull/lab mix the owner had named Corithia or Corinthia, can’t remember which.
If I ever get a puppy I will probably call it: [name_f]Effi[/name_f], [name_f]Niva[/name_f], [name_f]Nora[/name_f], Ezan, [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] or [name_m]Otto[/name_m]
I love [name_m]Moses[/name_m] for a dog, especially on a big heavy breed like a labrador.
[name_f]My[/name_f] beautiful little [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Russell[/name_m] terrier that I had as a teenager was called [name_f]Meg[/name_f]. I loved her more than anything and her name fit her perfectly. Very cute, energetic and sweet.
Our other dogs were [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], [name_m]Bruce[/name_m] and [name_m]Shep[/name_m] (a border collie).
@vicki [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] is one of my favorites for a [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Russell[/name_m]! The others are cute too, especially [name_m]Otto[/name_m] and [name_f]Effi[/name_f]
@jess181 I can definitely see [name_f]Meg[/name_f] on a [name_m]Jack[/name_m] [name_m]Russell[/name_m] and [name_m]Shep[/name_m] is so cool for a border collie [name_m]Moses[/name_m] reminds me of Moose, which I’ve always liked for a chocolate lab!
Well, my sister thinks I’m crazy…but, one of my favorite dog’s names is “MacTavish” or “[name_m]Tav[/name_m]”
I’ve had a birddog named [name_m]Rusty[/name_m], a Westie named [name_m]Milo[/name_m], a shepherd named [name_f]Heidi[/name_f], and now I have a Lab named [name_u]Marley[/name_u] [name_u]Dallas[/name_u]. I also love the name [name_m]Louis[/name_m] ([name_u]Lou[/name_u]-ee) for a border collie,
and Jacks.
@britthayes I like [name_m]Louis[/name_m], [name_m]Milo[/name_m] and [name_m]Rusty[/name_m]! Haha my sister tells me I’m crazy most of the time when I start talking names. Is there a specific reason why you like MacTavish so much or is it just the sound? Personally I prefer just [name_m]Mac[/name_m] or [name_m]Tav[/name_m] but to each their own I get eye rolls for some of the dog names I mention (like Wasabi) but if you like it you like it!
Boy Names - [name_m]Archie[/name_m], [name_u]Bailey[/name_u], [name_m]Dashiell[/name_m], Schulyer, [name_m]Wolfgang[/name_m]
Girl Names - [name_f]Ada[/name_f], [name_f]Calista[/name_f], [name_f]Lilia[/name_f], [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
I also think names related to the moon really work with a Siberian Huskies.
Ooooh I think [name_m]Wolfgang[/name_m] might just be one of the coolest dog names ever!!! Makes me think of names inspired by action figures/warriors, etc. like [name_m]Rambo[/name_m], Destro, Braveheart, [name_m]Maximus[/name_m], Gladiator, Stark, Zorro, [name_m]Hercules[/name_m]. [name_m]Even[/name_m] coyboys and outlaw names like [name_m]Butch[/name_m] [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u], [name_f]Sundance[/name_f]…

I have an eight-year old male Chocolate Labrador called [name_f]Copper[/name_f] and I think his name really suits him.
I like big dogs over small ones and so my names are suited to Chocolate or [name_m]Black[/name_m] Labs:
GIRLS
- [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] (chocolate)
- [name_u]Harley[/name_u] (black)
BOYS - [name_m]Samson[/name_m] (black)
- [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] (chocolate)
