RhondaM. Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I got my puppy tonight. A little West Highland White Terrier. Male. I have no idea what to call the little guy. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tree House Academy Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hmmmm...if I were to start thinking of names right now, I would probably rattle off the Twilight characters (too recent read - still stuck in my head). What direction are you wanting to go with a name? Symbolic, cool, fun, unique??? Congrats. I think pictures are in order! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vida Winter Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I'd name him Montmorency after the dog in Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome. Loved the book and loved that name! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhondaM. Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hmmmm...if I were to start thinking of names right now, I would probably rattle off the Twilight characters (too recent read - still stuck in my head). What direction are you wanting to go with a name? Symbolic, cool, fun, unique??? Congrats. I think pictures are in order! I don't know what direction to go. I know I like two syllable names. Names that end with y are my favorite, though I also like names that end in o. (I had a sheltie named Tango) I don't want a stuffy, snotty names names. I do like people names, but not sure that is the direction I want to go. (Jack, Harry) I dislike your average every day dog names. I like place names (had a cat named Boston once) I'd like a spunky, cute name that he can grow into. I already have a dog named Hootie. So...I don't know. I'm just looking for a cool name. I've looked and looked through baby name and pet name books and cannot find one that I just love. Rhonda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katalaska Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 One of the puppies was named Louie. I thought it was really cute...but also thought he looked more like a Napoleon! Ziggy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katalaska Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Bongo Waldo Charlie/Charley Wally All I can say is, you'll know it when you get it right! We named a dog Zeus once and it just. wasn't. right. After a few weeks we changed his name to Duncan (he never responded to Zeus but paid attention when we said Duncan...guess he liked it better, too!).

ChristusG Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I like McDuff that someone mentioned. From the McDuff series of childrens books about a Westie! We just got a puppy and we named him Biscuit. And we have another dog named Chase. Chase seems like it would fit a Westie well. I've always wanted to name a mischevious little puppy Stitch. I also like Parker for a dog. Or I could look at my favorite TV Show....Lost. Then there would be Jack, Locke, Sawyer, Faraday, Miles, Ben, Hurley, Sayid, Eko, Charlie, Desmond, Boone, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
