I named mine Seattle. That is where me and my husband met. She is our first and we thought that would be perfect.

Hi Seattle Mom: thats a cool name!! However... we can't use where my hubby and I met... the town sounds too weird! Its a great idea though! Hope other people can use that idea!

I'm going to name my next boxer Remy, hes gonna be a flashy fawn. The name would fit him perfectly.

The next next boxer I get, her name will probably be Hennessey. I had a friend with a pit puppy that had that name, he calls her Henney for short. I thinks it cute......

What I have done with the past few, is stood outside and called out the name possibilities. Some are gonna make you feel stupid, some will sound stupid, some will be tonguetwisters. Weed those out.

What about Sir Henakey Chops, or if your last name is "Smith" you could use Smith's Henakey Chops. Then his common name would be Chops. Unfortunately, I am horrible at the name game. Our rescue, who we lost, we named Deacon Balboa Marshmallow H-D Meathead-just to give you an idea of how bad we are at names ha-ha. I do like the Henakey with the Chops, though, it sounds pretty cool to me!! Good luck and let us know what you decide on.

OMG that's hysterical!! I looked at your gallery and your babies are beautiful. It's a good thing our babies are so stinkin' cute-they more than make up for our lack of originality with their names-well, I guess their names are original, just not the best picks for papers!!

I do it all backwards anyway......come up with a "simple name" then try to find something "unique" to put on the papers. I don't show my "kids", (thank goodness - the other dogs might make fun of their names) so it's all good.

I love the name Windfield. It sounds so impressive! My best friend in middle school's middle name was Winfield and I always thought it was such a great name. I think Win would be a cute nickname, too.

I love the name too.. somehow that will be part of his name..

You have a dachshund too!!!!! Me too!! My spencer is going to be 4 next week. He is black and tan. We have a ferret (Scout) and a 9 mth old Golden named Yeager... so this new boxer puppy will keep us busy! I also found out I'm pregnant the other day!! Woohoo!! Life is exciting!! ha ha!
