What's in a name??

[brutus77]

NO great story here, my son always wanted a bulldog named Brutus so he when got one for his birthday of course we had to name him Brutus. His name fits him to a tee. Frankenstein came named already as he is a rescue. His nick name is Frankie.

I have always wanted a EB and my grandma would always send me card and such on holidays of EB, so when I finally got one, I let her name the him and she picked MAC DADDY

My boyfriend was nicknamed the Hulk in college by his friends....we didn't know each other than so I've only heard the stories that led to this. He's now settled down and retired as the Hulk so our Hulk now gets to carry on the name.

We went round and round trying to come up with a name and my daughter always liked the never ending story so we got Sebastian drone the never ending story ..., but the neat thing is that I had not even looked at his akc papers yet then when I did I found out that his daddy's name is Ray's Sebastian , he was born on my late mothers Birthday and he was my birthday gift that I had wanted a bully for 20 years so he was meant to be my bully

My husband and I got married at Jekyll Island Ga. When we got Henry I didn't really care to get an inside dog but agreed that it would be fine as long as I didn't have to be the one that cared for him. While I was getting things in order with the breeder, hubby and the kids decided on Dr. Jekyll. I said it was fine but kind of long. On the drive home my son looked up Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and discovered his first name was Henry. We all loved it and he became Dr. Henry Jekyll. I fell in love with Henry at first sight. I've been attached to him from the beginning. I enjoy caring for him. My health keeps me at home most of the time and Henry keeps me company. We spend several hours a day snuggled on the couch.

Such nice stories

My husband named Boeboe since she was his birthday present. His younger brother had a teddy bear named Boeboe when they were children and she looked like a little teddy when she was a puppy<3 Her name fits her well I think it also means "clown" in Spanish... maybe, lol.

Bennie got named Bennie after my husbands youngest brother and grandmother who's names are Benjamin and Benjamina

Joey's name was Zoey when we got her but we wanted to get her a new name with her fresh start in life so we decided on Joey, it's different but not completely so she'll still know we're talking to her We got it Joey in "Friends".

All my dogs are named after characters: Sully: the villain from Commando, Mi'me: short for mini me. As Curly is our third dog, we thought it would only be appropriate to name him after our favorite Stooge. Funny enough my husband is related to Larry from the 3 Stooges (either his uncle or great uncle).

I picked Lilly because she was the smaller girlie from the litter- and the biggest clown ,when caught she was giving me the eyes and the look "it wasn't me they are picking on me" I chosen Lilly because it reminded me of delicate flower and as well i wanted a human name for her x

i hadjust moved to Florida and took up golf, badly I might add, so when I decided to get an EBD, it was only fitting I name him " Bogey". Many thought it was short for Bogart, and we do refer to him as that when describing his satanic alter-ego!

 

[Bazza]

Not much of a story here, my husband always likes human names for our animal. Somehow we went to name him Barry but kids very quickly changed it Bazza and it stuck, Typical of us Aussie's Sharon = Shazza, Karen = kazza, Terry = Tezza etc.

When we officially agreed to get a puppy, my bf and I decided her name would have to be something we both liked and agreed on. We threw around names for a few weeks while we looked at her pictures and one day he mentioned the name "June" because she was born in June. We didn't discuss any more names after that

Molly... We spent a few days trying out different names when we first got her. My youngest son just started calling her Ms. Molly and it stuck.

Kevin... The day Kevin was born i called him 'Chunky' because he was the chunkiest of the litter (not the biggest.. just the thickest). A few weeks later and my wife and kids are watching 'Despicable Me II' and 'Home Alone' (it was xmas time) and the next thing i know they are calling Chunk by the name 'Kevin'... and it just stuck.

Sometimes Molly is referred to as "Your DOG!".. as in "YOUR DOG JUST CARRIED OFF MY KEYBOARD AGAIN!!" (me... talking to my wife).

Sometimes Kevin is still called Chunk... as in "Chunk just ate all of Molly's dinner again.. and now he's eating all of Ellie's.." (kids talking about Kevin's love of food.. but not doing anything about it).

It was either Sir Blueberry Muffin (named after my love of all things Blueberry, especially muffins), or Bukowski- after Charles Bukowski one of my favorite authors.
I thought Blueberry Muffin was cuter

such great and cute stories - as for mine I've had my bully's name long before I had my bully -
NIGEL - cause it's a nice english name
WENTWORTH - after handsome actor Wentworth Miller from Prison Break
SINCLAIR - just cause it sounds nice

my son's femal bully is named
KARLY - after his favorite korean singer
ISABELLA - I chose this so that we could call her Bella which means Beautiful
SINCLAIR - to keep her in line with Nigel's name as family & so her initials are KIS as in KISS for her large heart on her side. Nigel has one too.
