Brown one is a dog.Im thinking Muntjac,Shitehawk etc. Black ens a bitch.Thinking gollywog etc. Yall have fun with it and give me some other ideas please and thanks. Pity you don't want human names. George would be great name for a brown terrier and is very English. It also means "digger in soil". And Digger is a very common traditional name for a terrier. A friend had a terrier called Todger (see an online dictionary); in polite company he pronounced it Badger . Not a bad name for a terrier in itself. If you're considering Shite hawk how about Dickhead ,maybe Wanker( a good old term of British endearment, ahem) ,though they would carry certain risks. Imagine you are shouting the dog's name in public and some big bloke takes offence! Edited November 13, 2024 by comanche 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 1,873 Posted November 13, 2024 Report Share Posted November 13, 2024 One of my previous dogs earned the nickname Dickhead. When my young daughter overheard me calling him this she asked what dick meant. To this day I'm proud of how quickly I responded by telling her that, as he was a sheepdog, and sheep are counted differently (yan, tan, tethera etc) and he was my tenth dog...hence dick! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tyne, Tweed, Clyde, Dart, Dee etc. There's loads of them. I like having the name of river a lot especially Dart as I like on the side of it so bias. I think Teigh would be another good name of corse bias again. Cheers Arry 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly reached his sell by date a month ago but my last lurcher was called Murkyn ; pronounced "merkin" as in the Old English word . Most people just thought it a weird name for a dog . Those that knew struggled to hide their giggles. . Jackie Drakeford laughed so much l thought she was going to explode !

Long backed, bent legged Sealyham type that was taller at the back than at the front with a head like the proverbial bucket. Beautiful to my eye at the time. Well named but chosen not as a poetic connotation to hard microcrystalline quart but after the character that James Coburn played in a film that was often on the TV. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
