Bulldog(s) Names
Tate Rory & Finn Paddington
Both have names of English "landmarks"--Tate is named after the Tate Museum in London (b/c he's a work of art)!! and Finn Paddington is named after the Paddington Tube Station as well as Paddington Bear (he's my real life teddy bear). His first name "Finn" is actually Irish and I named him this b/c of his firey red hair!

Walter or Wally… was named because his W is in homage to his brothers that we lost before him… Winston and Wellington. We call him Wally to signify his daddy's name is Elton… hence Wall-E!!! We also LOVE Walt Disney world, so his name just fit perfectly!!! :heart:

Gemini, Guido, Marmo
Gemini, because she is a Gemini born May 28th and has the personality of one. Hitler, because he is old English however is the most passive one of the family, Guido, because he has a huge rock head (his name means rock in Italian) and Marmo, because he has a marbled brindle coat ( his name means marble in Italian).

Castor (2013-2021 RIP)
The naming of dogs is a difficult matter! Castor is registered under his kennel name, but we wanted to give him a name of our own too. We discussed several names, all of them based on fictional characters, and finally named him after a Swedish children's book character. The fictional Castor is a beaver, and in each book he takes on a new challenge (he grows green beans in one book, sews an apron in another, etc.). Admittedly, our Castor does not look like a beaver, but his personality is as sweet as that of his fictional counterpart!

Bulldog(s) Names
Fatso, Romeo
He was already named Fatso when we got him and it was his second name..first he was Elvis and we were his third home so we didn't want to confuse him so we kept it even though everyone said change it..it def suits his personality and I just laugh when ever someone does a double take on his name..Romeo's name was Roscoe when he was born but I was set on Tyson until we brought him home and he felt so bad bc he was sick that all he wanted was to snuggle all the timeimage.jpg

Cue
We wanted something that seemed at least vaguely British. I always really liked the name "Q" like the James Bond character, but decided to go with Cue because it seemed more feminine. Also, when we got her she was kind of overweight and reminded us of a ball. She's our Cue ball :heart:
