Help Name Our Puppy!
« on: January 17, 2006, 04:24:06 pm »
We are expecting our AM puppy around Easter.  I am in search of a big, strong name...we have been calling him Magnus since July but I am not 100% sold on it-there are so many Magnus' out there.  We have also bounced around Kahn, Ra, Angus...Just thought someone might think of a really cool, masculine name.  I would like to stick to one or two syllables too.  Thanks!!

Well my friend was going to use this but he copped out and picked "Buddy".  Sonah, it's Gaelic for Lucky.  (Soh-Nuh)  Also, a suggestion is pick your native language, and look up a word that describes the puppy.

I love the name "Magnum" ....both in terms of a wine bottle and the size of a gun...

I love Bear!  What a handsome boy!  I have loved Newfies and have wanted one for a few years now.  My husband decided on a mastiff but I LOVE newfoundlands and your Bear is beautiful.

Where are you getting your puupy from.  We just picked up our brindle boy from Orion Farms last week.  We too had a difficult time with the name and as you can see by my paw print, we too thought we were set on Magnus!!! We tried a number of "tough names" on him but these pups personalities are anything but tough so none seemed to fit. In the end it was between Owen, Bruce, Andre, and Parker (he was the P puppy  and big Spidey fans), bu ultimately setled on Stan Lee or as we call him "Stash" (which is strong Polish name).  Good luck with the puppy... they are well worth the wait.

I like Wyatt too, but my nephew is Wyatt so that is already taken.  ;) 

I am liking Fergus, Thor and Rajah...it was easier naming our son.  I swear!

Ruger, like the gun.  I don't know if I spelled it right, but it's tough sounding!
