    I think Uabasson's (Or maybe I'm just bitter because I have a very common name!) list is closer, BUT... I doo see an awful lot of our (PTers) names on Dog-Names' list!!!

    Geeesh, I gotta get back to work!!!

    Interesting thread!!

    Jack is the only one of my dog's names that are on the top 50 (well, except Micki ). I'm actually surprised that Shadow isn't on the top 50, I always thought it was pretty popular, maybe its only here, lol.

    I personally don't care for the old original names, I'd never name any of my dogs one of those by choice (if they came with the name, I might keep it). I like names that aren't too common (like Max, Buddy, etc.) but aren't really rare either...sort of in between I guess. I personally also don't like human names for dogs (which is why I wanted to change Morgan's name)..

    For easter I went over to a realatives house. I wanted to laugh when one of the people there introduced me to their new baby boy named Payson. I couldn't help but think "that's a dog's name!". Then I realized Payson makes a nice name for a little boy as well.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!
