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.

This is a great website: http://www.behindthename.com/ I just spent 4 hours on there searching for names

What about Kayin? It means 'celebrated child' in Yoruba. It's easy to pronounce and def a boys name
-
Or Lekan, from Olamilekan, which means "my wealth is increased"..
-
Thabo.. Means 'joy' in Tswana..
-
great suggestions Janneke..I like them all…

We had considered Deodji/Diodji…
I think that is a really nice name. As it happens, one of the police dogs in our area who has been honored recently since he was wounded in the course of duty was named Diodgi. I believe they are in the process of erecting a statue of him. I'd never heard the name before, so it struck a chord.

diodji = dee oh gee = D O G

Thanks. I've been using behindthename for other reasons :D. I've looked there and didn't like what I saw. We're thinking of going with Diodji…:D

diodji = dee oh gee = D O G
Right!! That's what the police dog's handler said when they asked how he named him. Of course, he was a German Shepherd, but the name's cool anyhow.:p
-
It's decided! His name will be Diodji.

Be sure to post lots of pictures when you finally have him - we all love puppy pictures!
