Wink Had the perfect name for boy, now getting girl need help

Hi everyone we are getting a flashy brindle female in a few weeks and I need help pickiing a name. At first we were going to get a male puppy and the kids loved the name Rocket and said when the puppy got older they were going to call him Rocky or Rock. But we fell in love with a girl and now we are stuck for a name. My daughter likes Bella, Roxy or Star but we aren't quite sold on any yet. She's thinking of calling the girl Rocket but I kind of think girls need girl names so any help would be great! Thanks

I kind of like Star too, but I was just trying to think of a name that not too many other girls would have so here is what I have so far
Lexi
Roxy
Mocha
Demi
Star
Kieri (means beautiful? someone told me)
London
Zoey
still looking though. I think Galaxy is cute and we could call her Lexi, I also love Ember but I don't think the kids would go for it. Thanks for the ideas if anyone else has any to add I would love to check them out.

I personally like Roxy - still along the Rocky, Rockett theme.

I love Bella - thats my fav.

What about Nelly or Fergie?

If you're looking for a less comon name, take Roxy (and any variation of Rocky) off your list. We let our kids pick her name and the only thing uncommon is that we went with an i at the end instead of a y.

Mine named his after a Pokemon...at least we talked him out of Crocanaw and convinced him to drop the "F" off Bayleef.

I was a fan of Tallulah and Emma...sigh. Next time maybe!

I have heard some really cool names, but my favorite is Pouncer. Such a great comedic description of a boxer isn't it?

I like unique names. Thats the reason all my dogs have last names too!

Lily LaRue ~ first girl, named by a little girl at petsmart. She picked Lily and we then decided on LaRue. Started off a short story of Lily LaRue, the vixen boxer.

Then Buster McDoogle came along.....he's the dective of the bunch.

Then came Annabella "Bella" Kanicki ~ She's the village tramp. LOL

I hope to eventually write a book about their capers.

Sometimes it's best to wait til they come home and actually show you some personality before a descriptive name is given. Kids sure can come up with some doosies!
