How did your dog get it's name?

[luvofallhorses]

Buster -- I always called him Buster Button and it stuck.

Rocky -- we got him in a town named Rocker, so it's Rocky.

Jenny -- my mom named her after my grandmother, Geneva..they spell it
G-e-n-n-y, but I spell it J-e-n-n-y, because it looks better.

and Ginger -- my mom inherited her from my grandmother (my mom's mom, Geneva) when my grandmother passed away in 2003. My grandmother named her Ginger, because of her color.

We got Sassy from the movie Homeward Bound. My dad really named her since he thought Malteses were "for super star" dogs back then . Sassy just stuck.

Credit Approved "Visa" - When Visa was a puppy, her and her littermates became exposed to another puppy's vaccine reaction and developed parvo. The breeder spent $2000 keeping the litter alive. Some of the puppies died, but Visa and her brother and sister, Amex and Cash, both survived. Visa literally owes her life to a Visa card.

Roxy--Well she had her name from the shelter, and it fit her, so it stuck!
TigerLily Princess "Lily"-TigerLily from Peter Pan. Wanted her to share the name of a Peter Pan character in memory of Tink. Couldn't think of her middle name, and my mom suggested Princess, so Tigerlily Princess, it is! Lily for short .

Teddy - was named because he is big and fluffy like a Teddy bear. Besides that all the kids in the house were young and who wouldn't want a dog named Teddy? LOL.

Nova - She got her name because she is yellow and Nova means star. It just seemed to suit her.

Konner - My sister named him Connor when she owned him (same name, different spelling) and when I got him I hated the name. I had him for awhile and considered changing it but eventually decided to leave it. On his first birthday (December 14) I wanted to do something really special to celebrate. Might sound stupid but I changed the spelling of his name from Connor to Konner. I bought him and ID tag with that spelling and it made me feel like he was 100% totally mine, name and all.

Tango: To make a very long story short, I'd always wanted a Toller named Tango so that's how she got her name.

Tia: Not really sure, my mom named her. I don't think there was a reason for it, it just suited her.

Winston and Morgan came with their names.

Payson - There is a city in Arizona named Payson. We liked the way it sounded and it seemed to fit him.
