Talking Help, Can't Decide On A Name

We just got our boxer Gavin a new friend, and we can't decide what to name her. She is a beautiful little white boxer, just waiting for a name. We have it narrowed down to Sydney, Murphy, Mia, and Idgie. Please tell us what you think, and which name you would choose. Thanks for helping!

Idgie is my vote, especially if you got the idea from the movie, Fried Green Tomatoes. The character, Idgie, has a very boxer-like personality. Fun, free-spirited, energetic. I think it would be perfect!

I voted for Sydney but I like Mia too. Hmmm, hard to choose a name isn't it?

Love that movie! I really like Idgie and Mia It took us forever to agree on a name for our new puppy, so I know what you're going through!

Yes, that is exactly where I got the name from. I also have a yellow lab puppy named Grady, also from the movie. I think it would be cool to have an Idgie and a Grady.

my husband has an interest in the martial art of Ninjitsu so we named our boxer after a famous Ninja (Zenjubo)! Zen is our guardian that is always alert and ready for action-and we liked that "Zen" was short and sweet and easy for him to recognise. I liked Mia for your new addition because it sounds like a sweet name for a girl boxer.

Smile Still Don't Know

We've had our little girl for a week now, and we are still trying to decide. We are leaning toward Idgie, but still aren't sure. Thanks for all your help so far, and please continue with your suggestions. I'm sure we'll figure it out soon.
