HelpRe: New puppy name! + edit
in reply to a message by rem
Yay, puppies! :0)
From your list, I like Bay the best, but I do understand your concerns. Jonquil would be great too. Ovis reminds me of the Latin word for egg: ovum / ova (pl). I used it as a name for my white, egg shaped car once, as a joke. I'd hate to see that used on a real, breathing personality.
Hmmm. How about:
Scout, Nutmeg, Bronwen, Teddie (only you and the dog will know her real name is Theodora), Io, Clio, Larkspur, Aster, Clover, Bridie (short for Bridget), Sorrel, Cedar, Dido ("DIE-do"), Eos (goddess of dawn), Freya (goddess of love -- and cats -- oops), Nyx (goddess of night), Pax (goddess of peace), Arden (= eager, ardent), Milady, Smitty (if you've got the surname Smith in your family tree this would be a fun twist), Bijou (= jewel in French, "bee-zhoo"), Anouk, Suvi (= summer), Tova, Kiri, Orla (= golden one).
I realize these may not be *masculine* enough. But it can't hurt to throw them out into the internet to see what happens. Happy hunting! :0)

Run sounds like a command to me. And saying "Come, Run" is a little funny. However, Run made me think of Sprint, which is the name of my husband's boat. He liked that, except my son cannot say Sprint, sounds more like sint. But he can say "Ovis puppy dog." We are bringing the dog home this afternoon so still have a bit of time to decide.

Oh, it is kind of strange!But the dog accepts it as her name, and will run anywhere, any time, along with her new house-sibling, daughter's first dog, now age 4, that she raised from a puppy.
Ovis is fine, if that's what you choose.Let us know!
