Talking

You could name her Hazel. Kinda like "Dukes of Hazel". Or even Marma. The have Marma/Duke. Ok....I know cheesy. My female I had when I was young, I named her Rebel. Other than that I've always had males. Sorry, I'm not much help.

I think Luca is a cute name. I couldn't help but start singing that song "hello, my name is Luca I live on the 2nd floor. Maybe you have seen me before". Ok. I've gone retro.

Well I have been inspired by the previous post - how about "Darla". Now I hope you don't take any offence Darla but I think this name goes great with Duke - it is different, actually I have never heard it before. Also keeps the "D" theme going with your animals - Duke, Daisy and Darla

Good luck
Karen

Well, I always associate Luca with males, so what about Lucia (pronounced Lou-sha). Or, to stick with the "D" theme, what about Dinah?

If you want to stay with the Dukes theme, Lulu, after Boss Hogg's wife. Or Tizzy, short for Ms. Tizdale (postmaster on the show.) I am trying to think of Uncle Jesse's goat but the name escapes me at the moment. Daisy would be cute but since it is the cat's name, you can't do that but what about Bo Peep, Daisy's handle on the CB.

Let us know what you decide.

Names

How about Duke & Duchess- royal titles, or you could opt for Marian- John Wayne's (The Duke) real name.

No offense taken. My Aunt named her dog Darla because she liked the name too. Duke, Daisy & Darla eh? "The 3 D's of destruction". Ha!!

We have two male boxers, Apollo (2) and Rocky (9weeks). We loved the unity concept, perhaps it would work for you!

I love the Apollo & Rocky unity! Our Rockys' best friend is a male Boxer named Tyson. And guess what?! He bites ears also!!!!
