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.

    You will figure it out, the personality will tell you. It may just be me, but I like two syllable names, just input here for thought….:)

    Although "NO" became what Shaye most heard, along with " drop it" (she's too quick for "leave it," so "drop it" has replaced that) and "get off the table" and "stop digging the screens" (on the porch), lately we have been firmly saying her name, then squirting her in the face with a squirt bottle. Amazing how well that works - of course the entire house is getting wet but she's getting the picture that when we pick up the squirt bottle and show it to her, she'd best stop whatever it is she's doing. Gemma, of course, responds to "stop" and "leave it." Must be the "other" kind of dog in her….

    We once got a puppy with a 12 year old male (and an older female). For the first week the adults kept their distance from the girl pup, but within a couple of weeks my male and the pup were inseparable. She hung from his neck with those wicked teeth and he hardly ever growled at her, she was his little shadow and they adored each other. Adults will make terrible noise and flash fangs at the pups, especially at about 6 months when they are teenagers, but most pups ignore it all! Male dogs are usually very sweet and good with pups…females are, well, bitches.
