meaning of your dogs names

when we got troy when looking for a name for him i looked into the meanings of the names (im sad i know lol ) well troy means foot soldier anyone else done this ?

Callie/Calista is greek for 'Most Beautiful'
Skibadee was named after an MC as was Tali.

no meaning, Jellybean just looked like a little purpley/blue rolly polly jellybean and it was the day before Easter** that we got her so it worked.


**(In the US Easter baskets usually have Jellybeans in them)

Suki is loving one in Japanese

Erm no lol, but Moo suits her

no meaning,, its actually bullseye but i went off it so bulley for short

We also chose Suki because it's easy to pronounce in English and Japanese

Percy was already named from the rescue centre, but it really suits his quirky little character as a pup, and then when he's a grumpy old man it will suit him then also

Lou x

love the name suki our 1st staffy had the same name my brother bought her home when i was about 10 not to my moms delight as she thought they was vicious dog she soon learnt and a year latter she got her self a male and we used to show them lol now alot of my family have staffys all because of suki was only looking at her pic yesterday

Tyson was initially called Tyron. I needed to have a name starting with T to match his kennel name and the name the breeder's children had given him (Teddi). Tyr is Norse and means 'God' and the addition of 'on' was 'of the'. Anyway it is all academic now as he became Tyson after an ear biting incident and it just stuck.

Rocky kind of speaks for itself really - Stone, stoney, craggy. He was already named when we got him from the rescue centre and decided to stay with it.

Tara was already named when we got her from the resuce and she acts like a tart so suited her perfectly.
Stanlie is named after my deceased dad (middle name) get a few you cant name a dog that lol but it suits him hes certainly a stanlie.
hooch was called hooch by my OH because of the film turner and hooch lol

I knew that Loki was the god of mischief and a trickster and whatever, so I already had that name in mind when I got him. His personality just makes it accurate (though to be fair, all puppies would suit that name ).
