So my girlfriend bought a chocolate lab (it's a girl) and we're having trouble naming it. She wants something typical like shadow or ember and I was looking for something a little more unique.
I can't think of anything, anyone have any fun, unique dog name suggestions?
A buddy has working dogs (g.shepherd & border collie) & always advised me to use single syllable names for easier command training.
I've always had g.sheps & my last was named Belle. The missus always had labs (black, tho') and her only girl was called Gem.
If you really want a longer name and in keeping with the chocolate theme.. how about Button?
Just remember, you must be comfortable calling the name in a public place... so choose wisely and enjoy having your new companion around.

Daisy, Gizmo, Cocoa, Mocha, Truffle, Hershey, Reese, Snickers.
Our little Yorkie (Daisy Cocoa) = )
GL and have fun with the dog!

Thank you for the response The one-syllable name is definitely the theme of my ideas now as that is a very good point.

And thank you as well, i hadn't thought of gizmo and it's a short name like Pop Tarantula said...unfortunately my gf is not a fan of Mogwai
Gus or Otto.
i despise themed names.
+1 for cocoa its two syllables of sexiness
--sent from my glacier.
Liking Hershey.. I presume that is inspired by the 'bar'...
Also forgot to mention the less sappy, the better. Vets Waiting Rooms may be a source of embarrassment for the wrong name so I'd avoid Bob Geldof tributes.. (FiFi, Trixi, etc..). They also attribute your surname to the 'patient' ie.. Spudgun Harrison...
I think Deefer is a unisex name (as in Deefer Dog, Seefer Cat, etc..)

Deefer Dog is pure win lmao. I suggested that and was vehemently shot down. It's pretty much been narrowed down to April (after the month we got her and it's the tv reported from the ninja turtles) and Artemis (since my brother actually has a yellow lab named apollo, it works)

in that case, i'm going to attempt to name it "*****" or "mom".

Artemis is going to get shortened to Art & Arty, for sure..
unless this pup is of the same litter as Apollo it's a tenuous link, but you could also follow this theme & use a different Olympian.. Hera, maybe
Pups tend to be cute so I doubt you'd go for Mollusc or Muesli..
Tried to avoid it but HAAAAAA! (ninja turtles.. let's not go there )

how about pup? Simple.
I have a black lab and his mother was chocolate, her name was Hershey. That would be my vote

this topic makes me sad... the series is truely awesome. Harry Potter has always been the best modern day topic starter for a timeless conversation. and I remember the old days when I was in Yr2 when the movie first came out and now the main guys like the harry potter dude and the emma watson girl are older than me somehow...
also reminds me of toy story 3, they did a FANTASTIC ending to the whole series though
At this point let me just make it 100% clear i mean sad because I disslike the fact your talking about harry potter.
Not the fact its ending, I dont give a ratsass about that

Hey XDA,
I just made The Binary Huddle league on Yahoo, so if anybody wants to join here's the link.
-Autodraft
-No dues
-Flex spots (including WR/TE/RB/QB)
-Fun scoring
This is a casual league to have some good fun with a little smack talk. If you're an extremely intense fantasy player who feels that you should be paid as much as the players for what you do, this probably isn't for you

I guess I'll talk about with Empty Walls how the Bush administration incorporated censorship in the US preventing american people from seing what really is going on in Iraq and Afghanistan. Also how rarely we see any caskets despite hearing how many soldiers died in those wars. This is also how the people have pretty much became ignorant of all the death. Also what I think the Empty Walls are are windows, through which we can see what is going on, but not sure how I can really formulate that.

Saw the artwork for this posted before it came out as I believe the artist is on DA. No biggie, but honestly it feels like they're trying to push it hard rather than just letting it be a part of the storyline and happen as it happens. People didn't have a problem with Ellen being gay, they just got annoyed with her announcing it fifty times an episode on her old sitcom. Whatever will be will be.
Well, that's odd.
