Need Call Names for 5 Males

Basenji Puppy Pen
  • I need some suggestions for call names for 5 males. I posted this on another list but thought I would also try here. I would prefer names that begin with "C" or "D" and end in a y sounding name as I think these names are easier for dogs to learn. The males are approximately 8 months old and I do not know yet if they are littermates or even what color they are. I seriously doubt they have call names but I may be surprised.

    I saw the other post about the website with the names and I will go there and see if I can find anything I like. Sometimes a name will come to me once I see the dog. If the dog is registered I may pick a name from it.

    Thanks,

    Jennifer

  • What kinds of names are you looking for? people type names? African countries names/terms? characteristical names?

  • Danny, Davey, Daffy, Dobby, Corey, Cappy, Cody

    That's all my brain will come up with

    Anne in Tampa

  • Wally, Pooh, Buddy, Rudy, Buck, Beau, and Crash

  • Casper, Captain, Ceya, Ceaser, Cassius.

    Drake, Dobby, Dori, Drabs, Drape, Dribby, Dox, Dax….

  • Cody, Calamity, Casey, Captain [nickname Cappy], Copper, Chaos, Comet, Curly…

    Derby, Dizzy, Dusty, Dylan, Dyno, Dash, Digger....

  • I always like to see the dog's personality first before I make names. But being Christmas how about Dasher, Dancer, Donner, Drummer, and (can't come up with another Christmas oriented one so) Dreamer.

  • Sisco, Skylar, Shadow, Sidka, Snoopy, Scooby, Shylo.
    Max, Marvin, Meeko, Marty, Mud, Melvin.
    Dewie, Lewie, Stewie, Tewie, Chewie.
    Casper, Cadence, Comet, Cobie, cwaker, Corezon, Carson, Camden.

    Not to mention what you will call them when you're angry! :) I also like two syllable names, but often end up using one syllable, e.g. "Perry" sometimes gets "Pay", and my horse, "Hero" often just gets "Roe".

    I agree, I wait to be around a pup for a bit and then often pick a name that ties to the registered name; FoPaw's Designated Driver "Sober" FoPaw's Little Bit of Luck "Clover" FoPaw's Oh My God "Odin" FoPaw's Makes U Wonder "Stevie" FoPaw's Lead Singer "Diva" there are many more but these are a couple that come to mind, owners have picked similar matches. Jordan Reed has chosen some very clever names as well. Atarasi D'Lucks Edition "Eddie" (Clover's brother) Atarasi About Face "Sarge" Atarasi All About Me "Mimi" I love playing with names like this. I like Oakley myself but I think you'll be surprised to know exactly what his name is when you get him home. Good luck with the new baby. Therese

    I want my basenji to have an African name, so I searched African names via Google. Most of the sites tell you what African language the name is from and what the name means. It was an enjoyable process!

    Good luck to you…I really mean that. :) One more thought on this... The most important people in my life are not just "yes men"...they can see when my judgment is clouded by emotion. We might not like what people have to say, but if you step back and look at comments objectively, you'll see that they are meant to help and to give a reality check. The senior members on this forum have HUGE EXPERIENCE...they have great advice, even if it hasn't always been what I've wanted to hear. Please...please...read lvoss' post and then read it again. To me, that is the clearest explanation as to what the danger is by rushing in.
