Did you have any other names you were considering for your dog? (If we already had a thread like this, I apologize. :o)

We had a couple picked out for Daisy.
Mandy, Honey, Nala, Daisy, and a few others I can't remember. :p

Molly's name was pretty much picked out from the begining. :)

Jake was going to be Lance

Max came pre-named, but if he hadn't been we would have named him Diesel.

By the way there used to be somebody on here who had 2 dogs named Phoebe and Diesel. What ever happened to her?

Kito's fit him as soon as we thought of it
Abbey was already named
Riley was almost a Titus, but I didn't like it, so I picked out a few names, and did a poll on Pet Talk:)
Jada's name was picked out by my husband

Harley was going to be Preston, but my dad put his foot down on that on! :p Sylvia was going to be many many things. A few that I remember are Lily, Sophie, and Frankie.

Murph: Can't remember seriously considering anything
other than McMurphy. I had the name picked out long
before I ever got my first lil' Cairn puppy.

Maddie: Almost named her McMuffin, but quickly changed
it to Madison, after meeting her. McMuffin just wasn't
regal enough for her personality. Her original name from
the breeders was Trudy and that actually fit her, but
I had a friend from work named that and thought that'd
be a lil' too strange to have my dog named after her.

Oz: I had a ton of different names I was considering
for Oz, but I'm having trouble remembering them now and it
wasn't that long ago. I think Bogie and Hobie were
two of'em and maybe Coop too. His name at the breeders
was Cosmo, but I didn't like that. Finally decided on "Whizzer
of Oz" to connect him with Murph and Maddie. I stumbled
on a great name after I got him though, MacNally. Might
use that for my next Collie.

Dusty was actually named Ajax when we got him. He was about one year old. I don't know why, but I couldn't stand the name so I renamed him.

Roxy was ChaCha when I got her. I couldn't stand that either, so I renamed her.

As soon as I saw Honey I knew what I wanted to name her.

Pepper came to us already named, but I had some names picked out if he wasn't, Majic and Devil(I forget the rest,lol:o )

My dad named Digger, so I didn't really have a choice.
Chubby... uhhh well:o I named him, but I was young, what can I say.:p
Otis was always going to be Otis. I liked the movie [Milo and Otis] and luckily it fit him perfectly.;)
Prince was going to be Simba, Prince, King, Jake, or Banjo, and when I first got him I wanted to name him Chase or Chance. I know there were MANY others.:)

When we got Missy from the shelter her name was Emily but one of my best friends is named Emily and i really didn't want them to have the same name. I came up with Missy's name pretty quick, but for a little while I was thinking about naming her Kenya.

Leo was named "Speckles" at the shelter because of his spotted tongue, but I just thought it was too undignified for such a regal looking dog so my sister and I were brainstorming in the yard and kept throwing out names until Leo responded to "Leo".

Penny Lane was just refered to as D-8 until I adopted her. They didn't expect her to be adopted and didn't want to name her. Sad isn't it :(

I was considering these other names for Moose....>>>

-Oakley [which I still LOVE and have decided to name my next dog]
-Baron
-TJ
-BubbaTwoShoes [Bubba for short]
-Jack

I think that was all I really SERIOUSLY considered, but I'm sure I had a lot more that I just fooled around with. :)

Milly's registered and racing name is Milatov. When she retired and was adopted by her first owner, they called her Milly.
When we adopted her we saw no reason to change it. :)

For Kai, we were torn between chip, coco, Zeke and a few others..

For Kaedyn, my mom wanted to stick with Milo and I wanted either Kaedyn or Kia (but he isn't a female so we didn't go w/kia).
