My puppy needs a name...

1

I got a new puppy last week who needs a name, and since everyone on here is so good at naming, I thought I’d ask your opinion…

She’s 11 weeks old and is a german shepherd.  Shes really sweet, super smart, but also very spunky.  I plan on eventually doing agility with her and need a short (not more than 2 syllables) name that fits her.  I have another shepherd whose name is Aster.  Right now, I like Bryce best as her name, but Im still not totally sold on that.  I don’t know her parents’ names, she was born in a shelter.

Any ideas?

You could do Briza, to stay with the plant sort of theme. :wink: Or maybe Typha, the genus name for cattails…just because her ears are sort of doing that ‘poof’ thing in the picture, like cattails will. :wink:

Aspen, Willow…let me think about this for a while. 

I mean, there’s always “Cutie” or “Kiddo”

Hmm, well, if you want to stick with a theme for your dogs “Aster” means star so there’s…

Star, Polaris (too many syllables), Rora (for Aurora)

Would be neat to come up with something star/bright related, but I’m not doing so great thinking of that right now. Sunshine is alright… Shadow could be good (well, that’s anti-bright). Photon? :wink:  Enh. 

Totally adorable puppy, btw.  Makes me wish I had time for one.

I thought “Roxie” when I first saw her, because she looks spunky (and tough-girl-ish in the first pic).

My brain is dead from 4 hours of interviewing, so that’s all I’ve got right now.  I’ll come back with more names if I think of them.

Starshine, maybe?

Or, Vega…

hmm. cute puppy i’m not horribly good at naming as all my dogs have been in alphabetical order-Aspen, Beau, Cooper, Dooley, Einstein, Featherstone, etc.

I like Vega or Roxie personally.

awwwwwwwwwww, our dog who has shepard somewhere in her bloodlines, ears used to do that too, but now they are normal. shes a sweetheart.
I like Roxie too, you could also go with movie themed names, like
Rizzo ,
Pinky,
Lara, (croft tomb raider lol)
Juno
Cujo (just kidding)
Tipper  (due to ears)  ;D
Molly (my daughters input)
Nipper (my daughters input)
Tuffy
Orchid
Maggie (short for magnolia)
Lilly

im sure i can think of lots more its just too early in the AM , lol

Thanks for all the suggestions!  I ended up sticking with Bryce.  Ill have to post a few pictures soon, shes much bigger, but the ears are still goofy  ::)
