If it's a purebred dog, and if you want to register it with the AKC, you pretty much have to come up with one or two middle names, as most single names will be taken. Either that, or use a phrase such as Sweet Child O Mine but really call the dog Butch.

my understanding ...
Is that purebreds' names are supposed to be connected to their parents' names and the breeder or kennel. The only example I can think of is somebody I knew had a purebred yellow Lab named Brittany, and Brittany's full name was Brittany Marie Mixie, Mixie being one of the mother dog's names; if I recall the mother dog was named Bridget Marie Mixie, or some arrangement.
So you might get something like Rocky Ridge's Teddy-Bear Aloysius, with the name of the kennel/farm and maybe the father's name was Aloysius, but you always call your own dog Bear.

I once had a purebred that I registered just giving her three names that I'd chosen, so I don't think what you're referring to is mandatory. I didn't get her from a kennel or a professional breeder.. I don't know if that makes a difference.

same here
I don't really see the purpose of it. I mean great changes are that the middle name will end up being long forgotten anyway.
