[Alysser]

DREW!?? LOL! Sorry, that doesn't fit him at all IMO

Beanie was Rusty at the shelter.

Gracie was Wolfie until we found out she had no grace.

Jake was Male 2 at his breeder. i don't know if that qualifies as a name, but that's what they called him.

[poofy]

My sweet SAmmmyj was Rascal..which dont fit him at all..
and I name Yollie at 4 weeks..

Charlie's original name was Mikey! UGH! I'm so glad I changed it!

I thought he was Batman

[Jessika]

I thought he was Batman

Oh well, that too. That's what the breeder had named him! So I guess he has two first names!

We called Major "Shadow" at first, which I really didn't like that much for him. The people we got him from called him "Snoopy" which I think really fits him ahah. But he's Major, which is best.

I named tikeya at 6 weeks.. it has always been her name.

I think Oscar was named Panda by his breeders.

Babys original name was Roxy.

Ebonys name has always been Ebony.. Named after her mom, who died in a fire trying to save a girl..

Daisy has always been Daisy..

Sierra was named by the rescue I adopted her from, her name was Kierra (something like that) it was pronounced with a rolling "R"
Buddy was named Barry at the shelter I adopted him from.

[BitsyNaceyDog]

We named Bitsy from a Puppy, that's been her only name.

Charlie was named Shorty when we got him, it didn't fit him whatsoever.

Buster came with his name, we kept it because it fit him so well and we had other obstacles to overcome with him, we didn't need to add a name change to it.

Nacey came with her name, it's different and we really like it, also it fits her well. A few people I know didn't like the name Nacey and tried to convince us to chance it to Lacey, but that didn't fit her. She's our dog and if other people don't like her name that's too bad.

Nova was roughly 9 months old when we found her. We never found out what her original name was.

[gemini9961]

We got Sadie and Maggie as pups so those are their original names. Grant was named Grant at the shelter and we kept it. I tried to change it but hubby didn't like my names for him, they were too girly. Besides, Grant fits him.

[tricollie4me]

Although we adopted Bijou as a pup from the shelter when she was about 14 weeks old, she had never been named. So she's always just been our Bijou!

[k9krazee]

Shadow - We got Shadow from a relative and they named her Shadow, I wanted to change it but my parents wouldn't let me.

Micki - Micki was Mickey...we (my mom) just changed the spelling. But he obviously got his name for his "Mickey Mouse shaped" spots

Mini - She was originally Angel...bleh, didn't fit her at all.

Kyra - well, we've had her since birth but she did go through a few names. Originally we weren't going to name the pups and she was #5 but it soon turned to Peanut, then Baby and finally Kyra.

EDIT:

Oops..I fogot the J man

Jack was Biff...Yuck!

[My Peanuts]

Sylvia and Harley didn't have names so those are their original names.

We didn't name Morty. The foster Mom did and we liked it and he already answered to it.

Jimmy was being called Brownie by my friend's Grandpa and people in the neighborhood. No one owned him and he didn't answer to it so we changed it.
