14 Creative Names For A Dog
The arrival of your new best friend is an event. Initially you will have to give him a lot of care and make him integrate into the family. The choice of name will take you some time. In this article, we will list some creative names for your dog.
Creative names for your male or female dog
You could take a cue from television dog names, breed, or taking into account his personality. Or even give it a foreign name, even if it must be short, easy to understand and to pronounce. In this way the dog will understand that it is called that and will run to you, (unless he has done a prank). Here are some creative names:
1.Balto
Balto is the protagonist of an animated film, whose story cannot fail to make you melancholy, courageous and fill you with tenderness. Balto is a dog that transports food and medicine on a sled.
2.Dalí
Undoubtedly, it is a suitable name for curious dogs with a pronounced mustache. Dalí may be the name for a small breed dog with a strong personality.
3. Troy
If you have a brave watchdog who would give his life for you, name it after the Greek city known for having received a giant horse with its enemies inside as a “gift”.
4.Leila
If you are a fan of “Star Wars” and your partner doesn’t allow you to call Luke and Leila your children… then call us your 4-legged friend. Leila is a very sweet name for a little dog who is just as sweet.
5.Malak
In Arabic it means “angel” and can be used for both males and females. If your dog lives with you to protect you and to be the guardian of your dreams, Malak is the perfect name.
6.Akira
If you have a Japanese dog breed (such as a Shiba Inu or Akita inu), you may want to go for an Asian name as well. Akira is really nice for a little dog. Other ideas could be: Mitsuki, Kayoko, Hiroki, Sayuri or Hachinko.
7.Valkyrie
Maybe it will seem too long a name for a female (you could call her “Valki”), but at the same time it has a meaning that you cannot ignore. The Valkyries were strong and beautiful warriors of Norse mythology, and were in charge of accompanying the heroes who fell in battle to the city of Asgard, ruled by Odin.
8. Castor and Pollux
Have you adopted two dogs? Then you can take the opportunity to call them after the sons of Zeus, Castor and Pollux (the twins in Latin). The former was known for his skill in taming horses, and the latter for his dexterity in hand-to-hand combat.
9.Biggie
If you have a Golden Retriever or a Labrador, go for a sweet and cuddly name like this one. “Biggie” is perfect to represent her large size but also her big heart.
10.Milù
It is the little white dog that accompanies Tintin on all his adventures, a more than perfect name for lovers of comics and detective stories.
11.Italo
Ideal for a very self-confident dog who walks down the street with his head held high and proud of himself. He is not belittled by anything or anyone.
12.Spike
Those in their 30s will surely have seen “The Rugrats” in childhood. The protagonist child’s dog is called Spike, and was used by him and his friends as a horse or as a companion to all the pranks combined during the episodes.
13.Maite
What do you think of this Basque name for a little dog who fills you with kisses and licks your face every time she sees you? Maite means “love” in the Basque language and is therefore the proper name.
14.Lilli
Finally, another name taken from a cartoon. In this case it is the protagonist of “Lady and the Tramp”. If you have a Cocker spaniel, call it Lilli, like the dog who falls in love with the tramp Biagio and eats spaghetti with meatballs with him.
