| How did you pick your puppy's name? A few names have occured to me right off and I've found a few more I like from different Web sites, but I was wondering how everyone else went about choosing a name for their furbaby? So far my list is: Bullet, Mr. Big, Chip, Cubby, Kosmo, and Apollo. I think I need to get a feel for his personality before I can decide. What did you do when you were picking a name? |

| I narrowed it down to 2 names, Lola and Coco Chanel. I waited till I met her to decide. I decided on Coco Chanel because that's my favorite designer and she just looked like a high fashion pup..lol

| I had Ginger for a week before I was finally able to settle on a name for her. I think it would have been easier naming a child! Lol. I checked through a lot of baby and dog name websites. Although, I got the name Ginger from the movie “Casino”. The names you have picked already are really cute. I like Mr. Big the best.

| For some reason, I always wanted a long haired dog named Gypsy. Reminds me of the dog in the pound in Lady and the Tramp (though her name was Peg I think). Reminds me of a big flirt, which Gypsy is already.

| Megan had planned on calling her puppy Scamp but when we met Bandit he had black around his eyes, and he stole our hearts so that is where Bandit came from. When he died the vet who tried to save him, and helped us get the money back from the pet store was Dr. Tucker, that's is who Tucker is named after.

| I had a yorkie who was a lemon on 4 legs to put it mildly. When I got Pan, I went back to the story of Pandora's box. When she opened the box she let out all the troubles into the world. BUT hope was left in the box and I hoped she would be healthier than Skip had been. She was, because I kept her for almost 19 years. |

| Henry because I've liked that name for awhile and Shepard named after actor/author Sam Shepard. And I thought a Yorkie should have a good English sounding name. |

| I wanted to name him Finnegan and call him Finn, but then I was watching Family Guy and realized that my new baby boy would be named after the little devil Stewie Griffin So his name is Stewart Finnegan XVII of Yorkshire (also an English sounding name )

| I looked at the internet lists of names for dogs and dint find one i wanted. Thr Happy Days reunion show was on and there is a character named Chachi we liked that name so we named our male Chachi. My daughter named our female. Our breeder had a dog named Jules and that is what Alexa Rae decided she wanted to name her so we named our female Jewels.

| Here is Keeley's full name and why... Warren "Keeley" Las Vegas Warren- The city where he was born (back in MI). "Keeley"- After a good friend who passed away a year and a half ago. He was a HUGE dog lover and we really miss him. Keeley was his last name and what he wen't by. (and what we call our little man). Las Vegas Where we were the night he was born, a place we love to play and we feel we won the "jakpot" getting him. |

| Well, once the breeder that I purchased her from sent me a pic of her she looked just like a little baby and I always wanted a little girl of my own. So I put the two together and called her "Babe Girl" I was going to change it to " Reece" since her colors are like a reece cup but she already had started to respond to babe girl so I kept it...
