Clark:
My mom was just saying random names, and we liked it because he was a SUPER PUP! LOL
Layla:
I liked Delyla but my mom said it was too long and that I needed a nick name, so I said Dillie, after the maid in a book I liked. She hated it and suggested Lyla *pronounced: Lie-luh* But I (and to this day) HATE it. I guess it just sounds awfull to my ears. I loved Layla though, so it stuck.
Niño's name at the shelter was Nino, but we knew that the word for little boy in Spanish is Niño so we made the second "n" an ñ. We think there was a miscommunication and that his previous owners were telling then what sex he was and that he had another name, but we aren't sure. I call him Boy as a nick name a lot.
