    All,

    This is the latest addition to the Spooner family, she's an eight week old labradoodle; we bring her into our home when we get back from Florida.

    Alison, Grace and I have differing ideas on a suitable name (I wanted to go with Dave). All suggestions gratefully received. Nothing podiatry related PLEASE.

    Yeah, but a little part of you likes it cos it's educational...?
     
  5. although this would fit better for Spooner - Socrates
     
  6. She's a girl..... although I like the idea of a philosopher (cause it educational, K Griff), yet I also like the name "Keith".
     
  7. Medusa as my idea since it a she with curly hair
     
  8. Come on guys, it's me that's going to have to shout this in the park every day. Hence I've already rejected "snow toes". I know I said not podiatry related but maybe, Kirby? ;-)

    You calling across a busy park in Plymouth... Well in that case I vote for 'Precious'
     
  11. That's not bad and is being placed on the potential list. Alison quite likes Polly too, but she ain't a parrot- right?

    Cute pup Simon! Being a black dog & female, how about Ash (ley)?
     
  13. I just proposed "Griff", but my good lady rejected that one outright. Sorry fella.

    Outrageous.
     
  15. Now the Mrs is getting more forceful. I quote: "come on these people are supposed to be intelligent, they're just dicking around". She called it how she saw it, boys.
     
  16. Yeah, I'd suggested "Nigger" in honour of Guy Gibson's dog earlier in the evening. I don't know why, but we all felt a little uncomfortable with that one.

    We've been caught and bowled... 'Dicking around since 2004...'

    Ok, some serious suggestions:

    Flo
    Boo
    Mags
    Penny
    Rosie
     
  18. And the Mrs says: "next..."

    :eek:

    In the end most female dogs earn the name Floozy, tart, love biscuit etc anyway....

    My last crack at impressing Alison:

    Tiny
    Midge
    Curly
    Spotless
    Jordan
     
  23. "Don't give up your day job". Take it up with her yourself the next time we're all together, Griff (I would :bash:). Favourite at the moment is a derivative of Mikes "Molly" suggestion, it's "Holly" I quite like it since I was a big fan of early red dwarf.

    I'm also a fan.

    Kryton and Lister obviously wouldn't work.

    However surely a hilarious option would be 'Cat'

    Apparently Robin is a pretty good name, and unisex too ;)

    My pathetic input (although looking at other contenders mine may not seem so poor).

    Noodles
    Brodie
    Delilah

    Or you could spend a few weeks checking out this site

    PS. She is beautiful x
     
  29. Robin and Griff your latest posts raised a smile with she who must be...She obviously warming to you (she's just had a glass of red though, so that might account for it).

    Thus far she likes Holly and Kirby, how do we feel about Kirby?
     
  30. That's what I call my daughter.

    Cheers though Twirls...

    Hang on a minute.... what about Twirly?

    Apparently Kirby is a little bit traditional......so they say anyway

    Good point.

    Kirby, the angry Labradoodle?
     
  34. Good shout's both of you. Raised a smile on my face anyway.

    <Flattered> I think you would become tired of realising she will rarely listen & have a tendency toward childish behaviour. She also may have difficulties with being house trained! ;) Not weeing in the wrong place you'll understand, just unlikely to be great at dusting or putting her toys away. :empathy:

    Not good with a collar & lead either........:rolleyes:

    This is my only serious suggestion, and my last so here goes

    VESPA
     
  38. I would hate to see the poor dog be burdened with a traditional name such as "Kirby".

    This beautiful puppy looks like a "Maggie" to me.
     
  39. Kirby a name used in Film as well - Kirby gets lost maybe not show this to the wife as Kirby maybe off the list.

    A music idea - a whole lot of Rosie Rosie and a cool story to tell the young pup when your hanging out - Dad how did I get my name - well your named after a 6 foot red head Tasmania women and man wrote a song about it.

    Or - A boy named Sue Sue - Dad how did I get my name well your named after a boy Johnny Cash wrote a song about.

    Which brings me to another idea - Cash

    Ps could not sleep last night can you tell.
