What's In A Name
Having trouble these days, troubles with picking the right name. The last pup Fly will ever have is now 3 weeks old, and not sure if the name I picked is suitable. Having the number of dogs we have, I don't want names to sound too close, and I'd like to have a name that other people haven't used, but in the same breath, I would like to have a traditional name as well. When I was up at Penny Caster's, the golden child could do no wrong. It did not matter how sharp those little needle teeth were, she was forgiven. I had decided that her name would be Fleet - but now I am wondering if I picked the right name. Fleet has been used in many lines, but often as a male name (even though it could be a female as well).
How about Feist (for feisty and the singer), or Pip, for pipsqueak. I like Bett and Lynn of the ones you suggest. Awww, just give her to me, I'll figure it out!
ReplyDeleteWhat is your niece's name? Maybe a take-off on that would be nice.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Boon or Jasper?
ReplyDeleteI just love the name Twig and nearly called Jet Twig. I have a soft spot for it, and think it evokes a very pretty image too, for a female. Love it. That's my .02 cents! Next I love the name Lynn. I heard a clinician once talk about his dog Lynn (she was also in his book) and he loved her so much, it always stuck with me. He was British, I think it's pretty traditional too.
