    I want a Caviler King Charles Spaniel and I want to name him Cecil. Next dog is going to be a Caviler I think. I've had my share of big dogs, next one is going to be a little lap dog and, if indeed it is a Caviler, his name will be Cecil if he's a boy. Not sure what to name her if it's a girl but I kind of have my heart set on a male Caviler.

    My next male dalmatian (hopefully after my husband comes home from deployment in 2012) will be a male named Doc. We are thinking about adopting. So our next dalmatian may be a female. But we really want a Doc and don't really think it's appropriate for a female. lol Delta was almost Doc.

    That's the only set name. A long time ago when we first started dating, we wanted a Great Dane named Maverick, a dalmatian named Goose, and a smaller/medium sized dog name Charlie. (Top Gun Lol)

    I haven't thought about future names for future dogs because I am blessed with the ones we do have although they all have generic names.

    Oooh I really like this name for a Dal.

    I'm not positive on what breed my next dog will be, but I'm thinking about a pug. So we'll see!
    And for a Pug, I like these names:
    Tank- male
    Ollie- male or female

    Kaitlyn (the human)
    Sadie & Rita (Forever in Our Hearts) (the Labbies)

    If you end up with a female, she can always be Cecile, (Se-SEEL) or Cecelia! My Aunt C, who died before I was born, was a Cecile, but Cecelia is more common.

    Oh, I couldn't tell you NOW! I ha to meet the dog, see the look, movement, style, get to know the personality. Sometimes takes a couple or 3 day to see what suits!

    I usually stick to names with 2 syllables, ending in a "ee" sound. I was taught this is what the dogs can recognize most easily (attending border collie sheep herding trials as a child).

    Marlin arrived here at age 9, he knew his name. But I often call him Marlee. He doesn't hear the soft "n" sound at the end anyhow, why bother saying it? LOL.

    Of the pups I have now, Lacey is the only one I named.

    YES! I like that, Karen! OK, now I have a name for my future caviler male or female I love the name Cecelia but too many syllables for a dog. I like Cecile. So...Cecil for a boy and Cecile for a girl

    But when I'm ready to get another dog, the kids will be several years older and I'm sure they'll want a hand in the naming process, so I may not get to choose the name. I guess we'll cross that road when we get to it.

    Seeing how chihuahuas have a life span of 20 plus years. And how Mister will be turning 4 this June. I am good on getting another dog anytime soon. And I agree I must see the dog and get a feel for what it's name should be. However IF I do get another dog I want a bigger dog and deff another male.

    When I was younger I picked out cool names for potential dogs. And I actually got to name a couple of dogs over the years.

    But then I got into rescue, and most of the dogs I take in are already named. So, over the years, I've kind of given up on naming dogs. Of the nine dogs I have now, my son named three of them, and the other six came already named. And not names I would have chosen, by any means. *sigh* I just don't even think about it anymore ... whatever they are named, it's fine.

    I do like dog names which match the breed's country of origin, though. I think that's nice. I groom some Scotties named Aberdeen and MacIntosh. And some schnauzers named Wolfgang, Trinka and Zeigfield.

    I also like pairs of names on a theme ... I once though Isis and Osiris would be cool names for dogs.
    "We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
