Showing Original Post only (View all)Best pet names [View all]
I just saw a thread mentioning that Bentley had passed over the rainbow bridge (RIP Bentley). I couldn't help but think, good name for a dog.
Then there was a thread mentioning Leia, another good name for a dog.
A coworker of mine some years ago had a dog named Dakota.
My mother once had a cat. I suggested the name Shadow. She named him Musty (for her, all pet names had to end in -y or -ie). We once got a dog and she asked for suggestions on the name. I said Cassiopeia. She said great, we'll call her Cassie!
So, can anyone offer some great pet names?
