Which one???

[mcblink]

Wife and I added a new furchild. She was rescued from a less than loving home that involved my sister in law, her (ex)boyfriend and their nasty breakup.

Help us give her a new name! We have a pool of about 4 names we think might be good. Suggestions are totally welcome too! She is an Alaskan Husky (I think....pretty sure. Didn't meet the parents) She is about 5 months old.

Mush!

Mush!

LOL! I don't think I'll have an opportunity to use her as an actual sled dog. Maybe if I put together something with wheels on it, and teach the other dogs to mush too...

Tanka - "Sunkmanitu Tanka Ob Waci"

What ever name the dog responds to I had names picked out for my dog then Ruby Tuesday played she responded
to it called her 50 times done deal then tested her in the field with other dogs worked like a charm.

I dig it. I'll see what the Mrs. thinks about that one.

You might have a good point here. Maybe I should run the list of names by the pup too, and see what she seems to like best.

Probably should have included this ...

yes
he dances with wolves
or
who he dances with wolves

sunkmanitu tanka = wolf
(sunkmanitu is the coyote)
ob' = with more than one
waci : to dance, or he/she dances

I voted for Nova from Planet of the Apes

I voted Nova also. It means "new" in Latin.

Wife's first choice is Nova.
I think it sounds a bit like we named her after a car, or astronomy

One of our rescue cats came to us on a night of a new moon. Hence, her name is Luna Novae!

We thought about Luna! Or Lobo, but they didn't make the list along with a few others

Happily, I always think of this….

….as a “Nova”….

 

[mcblink]

Dang, so a bunch of you guys agree with my wife then!

Nova, I'm concerned, might sound too close to "no"....which I am sure pup will be hearing quite a bit, at first

I agree with that…it was the second thing that came to mind for me….

I always test pet names out by opening the front door and calling out the name. If I don't feel embarrassed it's a good name. My neighbor had a dog called Stinkypoo. It was hilarious when he was calling it.

 

[fretless]

Beautiful pup! But then, I have a large soft spot in my heart for Huskies!
