Well, I'm not nearly as creative. Even before I got Cody I decided on the name.. Short and sweet, and I thought masculine. Then I read in a women's mag. that Kathy Lee Grifford named her son Cody and I thought that it really WAS a dogs name plus he really looked like a Cody. Am considering another dog and have chosen lots of names, and according to my vet, most of the names are already very popular. So, when the time comes, new name will definitely be "Logan" which I LOVE plus a tribute to my new friend who I adore.
