Lily was born on Easter... so she's "Lauren's Easter Lily".

No. Sapphire was named after the sapphire necklace I was going to win at a dog show. That never ended up hapening though...

Jensen is named after Jensen Ross Ackles (Dean Winchester on Supernatural) or you may remember him as Eric on Days of Our Lives. Cinnamon was named just because I love anything Cinnamon especially her.

Our Cooper was named after Hayes Cooper the Westen Character that Chuck Norris plays in his television show "Walker, Texas Ranger"

My hubby and I are great fans and rarely miss even a re-run, My hubby is handicapped and Cooper is a great companion for him.

Our old (17yr old) Beagle is named Daisy Mae, she got her name because she has the spot on her back that looks like Micky Mouse ears and My kids didn't want to call her Minny so we settled on another Disney character "Daisy"

We also have a 15 yr old cat named OZZIE yes after OZZIE Osborne, because he was so anti-social. and still is after all these years. Totally weird.

Anyway that is our stories.

Walker was named after my husbands favorite christmas present: a bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue.

Exquisite, like the pooch! The other choice was Captain Morgan ('Morgan' for short). I guess I'm glad we don't drink Beefeater

or Jägermeister

Wylie is named after the poet Elinor Wylie.

Marcel is named after Marcel Proust, the writer.

Gwen is short for Guinevere after King Arthur's Queen

Rambo is pretty obvious (I call him Rambo Napoleon when he's in trouble)

Hannah I just liked, her name is Hannah Belle

Lia is short for Liadan which means the "gray lady" even though she's white

Glock is named after the gun.

Can you tell who my husband named? I'll give you a hint, they're the only boys lol.

My son wanted to name ours Toby, so I changed the spelling to Tobey (after Tobey McGuire) and now my hubby says he wants to call him Spidey. LOL
