I've seen so many interesting names on here and i thought maybe we should have a thread about them. What did you name your Bully and why???

My bulldog's name is Hank and I named him after my favorite television character "Hank Moody" from Californication..

Rambo
Mine is Rambo.
I didn't get to name him that, he was already named that when we got him at 2 yrs old.
but after hanging around him for a couple hours, we figured out why haha
the name suits him well so we didn't change it.

Arwen Undomiel
Arwen Undomiel - Tolkien character from Lord of the Rings series.

When I saw her picture that her breeder sent to me I thought she had a noble look to her. Arwen (in the world of Tolkien) means Noble Maiden, so I stole... um... er... appropriated the name for my Noble Bullie! Undomiel is her last name and means Evenstar in elvish.

It just came to me, I thought it was a perfect fit, Ta-Da! ;)

When we got our bully I wanted something that had to do with the Marine Corp. With the fact that she is female we decided on Belleau Wood as her name. We call her Bell

Frank
When we originally planned to get a bulldog, my hubby and I wanted to name him Gladstone because we saw the Sherlock Holmes movie (most recent one) and his bulldog was Gladstone. It sounded very "English" and proper. Well, when we picked up our little guy, after one day we decided that he is NOT a Gladstone, he was more like Will Farrell's character in Old School, Frank the Tank. So Frank the Tank he became. And he loves streaking... :tongue:

Conan the Barbarian, after the comic/film. Also, a big contributor was the fact that I am a huge Arnold Schwarzenegger fan. He'll be introduced to people by full name so I don't run into replies like, "Oh, you named him after Conan O'Brien?!?!" ... yea, I named him after a red haired late night talk show host! :cursing: But he'll be addressed as just Conan for short. :)

We have two... our boy, Nitschke was a Christmas gift from me to my boyfriend. Nitschke is his all time favorite Green Bay Packer... a very stubborn, hard headed line-backer! Does it get any more fitting than that? Our girl is named Banks... after my boyfriend's all time favorite Chicago Cub-- Ernie Banks is once of the sweetest, most laid back people; could be more NOT fitting! LOL!

BeBe, Hazel, Lucy Lu, JLO, Hillary, Henri, & Katie
Bebe, Lucy Lu and Sexy Girl all got their names from the breeder we bought them from and we just kept their names. BeBe is "Phoenix's Bella BeBe", Lucy is "Phoenix's Lucy Lu", and Sexy is "Pheonix's She's so Sexy". Buddy was Lucy's pup from her first litter and he was her only pup, so we called him "Texas Star Bulldogs One of a kind Buddy Boy".

Tyson Chaos....I suck with names other than skin kids, so the hubby was bound and determined his name to be tyson. It reminded me of chicken (tyson chicken) so I hated it......I got on here with all my wonderful ebn'ers and Cheryl aka Libra926, said Chaos. I loved it so to keep peace it turned out as Tyson Chaos.....and boy what a perfect name! He has a very chaotic personality! and he gained a wonderful godmother :luv:
