Hey, Im naming my new Shelty puppy, but I am having trouble thinking of a name. I like the names Marilyn (like Marilyn Monroe) and Brady (from Tom brady). I would like a name from pop culture. Do you like my ideas or have any suggestions?

How about calling the dog Diogi? You know, D-O-G

Is it a girl or boy???? That matters!!!!!!!

Hey! I got a Sheltie a couple months ago. His name is Linus. He's named after the Peanut's character with the blanket. Everyone who meets my pooch coos over the name. Pick something semi-unusual (I know a hundred Gingers and Buddys), that means something to you (Linus was my favorite of the Peanuts) and is easy to say (Pufferwuffersnooleoogems may be adorable but not when you're training and you have to say it 500 times). I recommend a two syllable name and something that doesn't sound like a command (ie: sit, come, stay, etc.). When I was naming my pup I made a list of 20 names. I'd look the dog in the eyes and read the list. The names I liked saying and the ones that got a positive reaction stayed on the list. (My dog hated Bogart and Darby... but liked Rocky and Linus... go figure...) When you are training your pup ALWAYS use the same name... no cute nicknames you made up... it'll just confuse the poor dog. Hope that helps. Marilyn is cute... but if I may suggest: try a character of hers instead ... it'll be a good conversation starter. As a Pats fan: I think Brady is BRILLIANT!

when i got my dog he didn't have a name for a week. i needed to get to know him. in the end i named him Zeke, it fits him perfectly. how about Lola, if it's a girl, and Beckam if it's a boy

My suggestion for your new dog would be Missy if it is a girl.
