Name my puppy...

Post by Mr Bean »

This is my female 8 week old puppy I'll be picking up Monday
Image

I have a few names in mind which I won't share to avoid influencing the random people on the internet who might read this.

She's a Grey/White purebred Siberian Husky
Image

And here's one from when she was only five weeks
Image

So any name suggestions for my little doggy? Like I said I've got a few names in mind but you lot have been excellent with coming up with terrible names for pets and the occasional good one. I throw it to you lot because even though I've got a few names in mind sometimes hearing ideas from random people on the internet change my mind or narrow me towards that one name I'd be happy with.

Ideally, the dog's name should be one or two syllables, and not sound like any words she'll commonly hear. Or be easily shortened into a one or two syllable name.

I usually name dogs for favored poets/authors, occasionally fictional characters, and from mythology.

How about Skadi, the Viking winter goddess?

Insulin breaks down sugar. If you want something sweet, name her Diabetes.

But Insulin is a good name, I agree.

Starcraft (keeping up with internet sensations). Because when you combine it with husky....



More seriously, either Buck or White Fang, considering the respective Jack London characters.

Jesus Christ those eyes are scary.

For some reason I like giving pet names and then adding a roman numeral to them for no reason even though there wasn't a predecesor.

So for your dog, I'll say 'Spartacus III'. Which you probably won't pick because she's female, but whatever.

Yes, I love the third picture soooo much because of that.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

How about Winter?

"COme Winter, here winter!"
"Winter is coming!"
"Winter Sit!"
"Winter down!"
"Winter Shake!"

Either that, or 'Snowball'
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.

It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.
