Re: Which name for a golden retriever? ETA (added another name)
in reply to a message by HaySkyNat
I like Xanthe and Tessa. I think Tessa is cute and works perfectly as a golden retriever name. I like the name Willow but I'd prefer it for a human. Xanthe is less "cute" and a little more "badass" or "cool". I'd definitely love to meet a dog named Xanthe, while a dog named Tessa wouldn't surprise me. My reaction to Tessa would be "aww, that's a sweet name" and my reaction to Xanthe would be "woah, awesome! Pretty and unusual."
