“What’s his name?”

A neighbor may ask you while you are walking around your new pup. The question may be simple but you have not gotten around to naming him yet. There are tons of boy dog names you can give your pet and choosing one that would fit your dog would be quite hard.

To choose a boy dog name, start off with listing down the best names you would like your pet to have. You can list down the most common boy dog names - like Spot, or Blackie, or Chase, or just plain Spike. Or you can choose a person’s name - maybe Mike, or Caleb, or Austin, or Jason. You can also opt to list really unique names for your dog - like Cat, or Gucci, or Hamburglar, or Bite maybe.

The important thing to remember is to keep the name for your dog short. You would not want to name your dog Alexander Graham Bell. Just imagine how much effort you would have to do just to call out to your dog when it is time for dinner. Also make sure that the name you are giving your dog can be easily pronounced and called out. For example, you give your pet a name that can be a tongue twister but that would only make things more twisted with you not being able to call out his name.

If you really are having a hard time choosing a boy dog name for your pup, you can also try pulling out your dictionary off the shelf. Then close your eyes and open the book. Let your fingers roam over the book and make it stop somewhere. Then open your eyes to take a look at the word that your finger has stopped on. Who knows? You may have chosen “trouble” and that would be a good boy dog name - especially if your dog seems to be always bringing in trouble.
