Default Name Meanings

I am great at finding names with meanings, so if anyone needs an unusual name that suits their pets appearance/character, I can help out!

Here's my pets names, and what they mean.

The dogs:
Asha - means 'Hope' in Sanskrit, or 'Life' in Arabic. Both are apt as she came from a bad background and I gave her second chance.
Elliot - means 'High Offering' with English origins.

The cats:
Finn - means 'Fair' in Irish
Riley - means 'Valiant' in Irish
Mackenzie - means 'Handsome Son' in Irish
Theo - means 'Untamed' with French origins

I once named a cat "Punda" which is Swahli (sorry if I spelled that wrong) for stubborn. He earned that name after climbing up a patio screen door as a kitten.

After my mom got a toy poodle puppy and still didn't have her named three hours later, my brother and I picked up a dictionary to help out. The best description we found was for "Doo-Dad" which is slang for "thing with no name!" We thought it was perfect...Mom didn't agree and named her pup Cuddles. I just thought that would bring a laugh for someone.

I like origional names that have special meaning. I realize that the name giver feels very special about being the one to choose that name.

Where I work it isn't uncommon that we don't all agree on a specific name given. A pup ends up with three different names.

The last clever name I came up with I gave to a Boston Terrier. It was Gradyson. What happened was a delivery was being made and the driver had a thick Boston accent. He was saying that he was from (the company) "Great Eastern" but to my ears it sounded like "Gradyson".

My dogs name doesnt mean anything that I know of as a 'dictionary definition'

But I named her Blaze because when we first got her she was very nervous & Basically was like a bull in a china shop lol.

And she runs so fast so the Name Blaze just sprang to mind.

I grew-up with a pair of male littermate English Springer Spaniels. Their names weren't chosen for their meaning, but as it turns out they certainly fit them!

Kyle: Gaelic for "handsome"; and he was!

Kodi: "Cody" is Gaelic for "cushion"; and he LOVED pillows!

My last Springer was actually named after Elton John*lol* Here's the meaning though....

Elton: Olde English for "from the old town"
