We are all big soccer fans, so Beckham was named after David Beckham once we say him playing with his little ball - and he is real cute too!

I love that show and the character Ziva too! I actually wanted to name my newest pup Abby after Abby on NCIS but my sister named one of her Yorkies Abby, so I decided I should use a different name.

I named Annie after the lead character, a CIA agent, in Covert Affairs, a USA show that came on this summer and ended in September. I hope they are planning on bringing it back.

Yes Celine Dione. I could be her biggest fan! Sometimes I call my furbaby Celine Dejon lol. She is a darling name sake!

McGuinness mom · 12-04-2010, 06:29 PM

McGuinness is named for...well...Guinness. He was dark with a white head when we got him and he really looked like a pint! The "Mc" was tacked on because his big brother (Affenpincer) is named McSquizzy.

My sons named Sammy after Sammy Sosa the baseball player.

Jackson was named originally after the Johnny Cash song "Jackson".

My aunt then suggested his middle name could be "Five" aka Jackson Five, and always being a fan of Michael, the name just fit.

Yes, Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt!

I used to watch the soap opera Passions (its off the air now). The Crane's had a daughter named Fancy and I really liked it so thats where I got the name Fancy from and there is Reba's song Fancy too.

Louis is named after Louis Armstrong. Other dogs in our family are named Miles and Coltrane, so we decided to stick with another famous jazz musician.

My Male Sneakers...
WOW, when I first saw him, I thought he was the cutest little guy I'd ever seen ! And by the second day (out in the yard) he started "stalking" the Squirrels. JUST like a Cat would. Head/vision fixed on one, careful slow steps and moving forward like he was on a Rail !
Sneaky... so, Sneakers.

My Female Becca...
Even as a puppy of 8 weeks, I could see her strength and beauty so clearly. I couldn't help but allow my mind to reflect on the stories I
had read as a child, telling of this woman, a monument to faith and
dedication to a Nation so suppressed. Rebbecca it was...
and Becca she is.

Yes.
Copper is named after the dog in the Disney movie Fox and the Hound. I loved the puppy scene and the voices in the movie. "My name is Copper and I'm a hound dog. Ahhroooooroooo." Also, I wanted a "dog" name vs. a people name...so I borrowed.
