| Always difficult finding a name!! I would be tempted if I had a real tiny like that to name him Max or Hercules, Rambo or something like that!! On the other hand a name that reflects his tiny size - are you planning to name him before you have him? It's so tempting to do that and I always have, being unable to resist the temptation but if we'd waited a while with baby Gizzie (4months) we'd have probably called her a different name after a glove puppet here in Wales 'cos she makes exactly the same noise lol! As it was Gizzie was named in tribute to a former much loved yorkie whom we sadly lost at the age of 14 - another idea if you have had former dogs? Let us know what you decide!! Good luck! |

| Welcome to YorkieTalk and congratulations on your new baby!! If you have never owned a Yorkie .... you are in for a real treat!! Do you already have your baby? Naming him should be great fun! Give us a few suggestions ... our little girl is "Toto" ... long story! Everyone thinks she is a boy at first! Where in Alabama are you? We are from east central Alabama, but will be in Colorado for several years because of my husband's work. It's beautiful here but was difficult to leave 80-90 degree warmth for this cold ... brrrr!!

| I am kind of coocoo...so when i decided to get a puppy i knew i wanted a different name. So, while watchig Austin Powers i had this grreeeat idea of naming my dog Mojo, now i can always say i got Mojo . After finding out that it was a real word and even had a nice meaning (charm, sex appeal) i was sure that this was it. Now, his "official" name on the pedigree is Hulk..heheh cuz he was the biggest of the litter. |

| Mojo and Hulk, those are great names! We went with Hercules for our little guy and we're loving it. We always get a laugh when we tell people his name, especially when they look at all 2 pounds of him! |

| Oh, I love Hulk. That is cute. Let's see if I had a boy yorkie, I'd probably call him Bailey. I've always liked that name for some reason or another. I think picking a name will come to you and your family. It all depends on what the puppy looks like. Also, at first don't be afraid if you love a name and want to name him that but find that it doesn't stick. It will stick after a few days. I thought the name Luna would never stick but now I love it and it fits her. Hope my little piece of advice helps!

| We picked out the name Yoda before we got him too. It fits so well now! Hmm, maybe you can pick something that complements Mojo? Like Voodoo? Kazaam? Sorry, I'm not too creative this morning! |

| How about Karma for a name?? For some reason when I saw fasteddie's response of Kazaam, Karma entered my head. Oh, and Yoda is an awesome name too. I could never think of some of the cool names I've heard you all come up with! |
