We are desperate here! Our new Yorkie puppy comes in two days and we have yet to decided on this poor little guys name. At first we were definitely going to name him Gretzky, after Wayne Gretzky! We are HUGE hockey fans and this only seemed appropriate. The more I thought about it I felt bad, he is 16 weeks old and he is going to be in for a culture shock as is moving from Arkansas to Boston. I then decided we would keep his name as Oscar (the name his breeder named him). However, now every time I talk about something to do with him I call him Gretzky! Part of me wants a whole new start for this little guy, he's our puppy now so we'll name him what we want but everyone has their own opinion on this, "I like Gretzky!" or "No keep it as Oscar it'll be easier!" Which I would believe but my parents got a puppy 16 weeks old 2 years ago and changed her name no problem. I just can't decided which one I like more! I am stressed beyond belief over this! So I'm going to take a poll and see what happens.

Gretzky?? or Oscar??

HELP US PLEASE!!!!
