Zoe, named by my daughter (who rescued her) and her boyfriend (he is Greek), means "life" in Greek. I thought it should have an "i" or "y" on the end, but that was apparently not Greek.
Cindy,named by my kids after the movie The Grinch, which was out at the time, so her full name is Cindy Lou Who.
Cooper, named by my daughter after the Mini Cooper, her favorite car at the time
Emma Grace again--named by my daughter, after the baby Rachel had on Friends.
...My daughter, BTW is able to convince anyone of anything. I've always said she could sell ice to an Eskimo, for twice what it was worth and they'd end up wishing they'd paid more than they did. I guess she was convincing with dog names along the way!
We also had:
Jack (Yukon Jack, an American Eskimo, my first "baby" who lived to 14 and I still have dreams about him.
Baxter, a cavalier, I named him! He was very sick with some sort of brain seizures and had to be pts at 3.
Cats:
Pickles and Tickles, given to my daughter, and named by her, at age 4 (thanks, Mom
),
Casper and
Minnie, big and white and tiny and squeaky respectively
, before I was married.
I know I'm forgetting someone...
Thanks for the thread, it's fun to remember them all!
