Or Peake, like mine.

 

I named mine River. It's probably a cliche, but I still haven't seen another dog with that name. I have been told that that's a hippy name though :lol3:

 

Grandpa had a german shepherd named Doober. To this day the most aptly and creatively labeled dog i've encountered.

Might just name my dog that if I ever get one.

 

I named mine Gauge and there isn't another one in my area with that name cliche or not. Myself I am not one to name a dog a name that would be considered to be use for a person.

Once again, not trash talking on names...I mean good lord its a DOG, but it makes me laugh how many hunting dogs have the same names.

 

Mines named Gage and Ive heard it in the blind when he was after a bird but he kept on going must have known it wasnt mom :yes:
I love his name even though he gets called gator more now.

 

Yep, love it when Drake gets lost at a duck park, someone walking through the dark yelling for Drake and you can hear the umpteen dogs splashing through the water going to the name. ps, my brother in law named his dog Drake, and yes, he gets fighting mad everytime i compliment him on his originality. :thumbsup:

 

A gun dog named after a christmas decoration?

 

Not a christmag decoration fool....a bush! Haha no My grandmas middle name was holly, before she died a few years back she told me to name something after her she didn't give a damn if it was my first dog or first kid (she had an odd sense of humor) so I finally stuck to my word registered name is "holly's tequila sunrise" (I'm a big eagles fan) so her name has a story...what's yours? I conformed with the crowd and named my dog after a duck, gun, shell, decoy? :thumbsup:

 

Right now in my kennel there is a Bella, Betty, Baylor,Hannah,Kate,Buster,Gabe, and another Buster. Sassy is still to young to go to the kennel so she is in the house. A name is just a name. Something to identify them and send for the mark.

 

A little over 14 yrs ago I named my first dog Bella.
I know I wasn't the first but it was rare, in Montana anyway.
Now it's one of the most common female dog names. :no:
Next one will be something like Giuseppa,Vincenza or Luigi

You should be good unless you move to Italy...Our other dog is named Isabell (Wife named her) didnt want to be yelling that out all the dern time so she goes by izzy. Isin't everything rare in montana...dont ya'll still carry clubs and hunt with spears up there? :hammer:

 

I have never met someone with the same dog name as a dog that I had.
1st Lab- Tucker, I now work with a guy who's sons name is Tucker
Brother's lab- Colton, I married a girl with a horse named Colton
GSP- Jäger, haven't seen that one recently
Australian shep- Boomer, the only "Boomer" I know is Boomer Asiason who used to play football.
Guess I got pretty lucky with my name choices

 

I always thought Zip was a really cool name for a dog.

I went through a few dogs... Prince, Duke, Duchess, Blacky, Buddy, and now Milo.
All were hunting dogs and not one was named Drake or Gauge. Had a pointer named Hawk.
My dad always had a female dog...Mitsi, Maggie, Lady, etc.

I wonder if anybody has a dog named Kenny. "OMG they killed Kenny, Them bastards". :lol3:

 

Just to reaffirm where I stand on worrying about creative names, the Chessie before Peake was Blue, about as traditional of a dog name as there is and one of the reasons I liked it. The other was that a then Blue's Clues fan grandson named him. Chessie before that was Chien ("dog") and before that there was Bud.

I came by low opinion of concern over something so silly as a "creative" dog name honestly, as my own grandfather had a series of "farm collies" named Ring, presumably for the white ring around their necks, and one "farm shepherd" named, you got it, Shep.

 

Lol. We had a dog named shep too. And horses named brownie, red, roanie, buck. Lol. I have a lab named duke. It was as good as anything else I could think of using something with the u vowel sound, to avoid ambiguity on commands or instruction. Wanted to stay away from a name that sounded like no, back, here, heel, over, fetch, well you get it

 

Should see some of the looks I get when asked about my oldest mutt's name or some of the smart a@@ comments.

 

Everyone is forgetting "suzie"!!!! Hear that one alot!! I really liked the name drake! But i would never name my ducks dog that....

 

Let's see...growing up there was Bear, Nippy, Roscoe, Chessy, Roxy, Ruby, and Scout.

 

My lab is named Major. I've never heard any other with that name.

My son is named Drake though...

 

"Deck the halls with bows of Holly fa la lal la la, lal, la, la, la". Its a Christmas decoration. Named my dog after his sire Gunner. spent all of two seconds thinking about it. If I had a female dog I wouild name her "Tiller" as in outboard/hunting terminology. Not really into Caroling or show tunes.

 

Buddies dogs are Lock, Leddie, and Maverick.

I like all those names. Never heard any of them either.

It's a plant, genius. I hope you don't make all your deductions based on song lyrics. :grin:
