Question Registered Name for Little White Girl?

Hello all,

So today I finally came clear and told the story of my boxer who passed away. At first I didn't think I would be able to get another dog for a long time. But as the weeks passed (which felt more like months) I knew I couldn't live without another boxer... It does seem soon to be getting another boxer (only 1 month and 1 week after Shooter's passing), but I did not want to wait all the way till next year, and did not want to be bringing a puppy home in the middle of the winter. So I came across a great breeder who still had a few females avaiable. At first I thought I would want another dark brindle female like Shooter. But I thought that would be hard having the same. They had one white female left, who has a dark brindle patch next to one eye and a light brindle patch next to the other...

She will be registered (limited obviously, because she is white - bull can still participate in agility, obedience, etc...) with the CKC (Canadian Kennel Club), so now I have to think of a regsitered name...

I've been racking my brain and can not decided on anything. It has to start with her breeder's kennel name (which I do not think I'm allowed to mention here) and cannot be more than 22 characters...

Her mom's name is 'Kennel Name' Princesse Cléopatre and her father's name is 'Kennel Name' this town not bignenuf.

We are not definate, but are leaning to call name of Stella.

When we pick her up on Friday, we need to give them our Register Name. In her registered name, I definetly would like to incorporate something to do with white. I would also kinda of like to incorporate her name Stella (which means Star in Italian) but do not have to. I want something strong, smart, and unique. The breeder said she is brilliant, so I figure she deserves an interesting name...

We went to visit the pups when they were 5 weeks old, I will post a few pics in my gallery shortly.

Any ideas? Thanks for all your Help!

I just wanted to say that I love the name Stella. It was at the top of my list for our Boxer puppy, who is coming home in 3.5 weeks. But she will be called Zoey, which was 2nd on my list and DHs favorite! We are still trying to decide on her registered name as well, so I am interested in seeing the replies you get!

Congrats on your new baby. I am so sorry about your Shooter's passing.

I like the above suggestions. I myself, am not so good at these names. Buster still doesn't have his registration finished because I have no idea what to call him. Just drawing a blank.

How about:

"Kennel Name's" Stella Luna
"Kennel Name's" Stella Nova
"Kennel Name's" Winter Star


I am not very good at this either, I thought I would take a stab though.

I was going to suggest "Kennel Name's" Stella Nova but you beat me to it!

Since Stella is Italian for star, the use the Italian word for white. This is "bianco."

Having done that, I get the following....

Princess Bianca Estella

Estrelle Bianco

Lady Stella Bianco

Queen Bianca Estrelle

...and I am sure there are more. Essentially, you are calling her a royal white star.

BTW, I had a female white boxer. She was a wondeful dog.

OMG!!! I want to cry right now!!! This is absolutely perfect and would never have thought of anything better!!! I had wanted to somehow incorporate Shooter's name too, but didn't know how. I'm in love with this.

Thanks so much, I'm defiently choosing that!!
