H'mm...I've only used one of those top 10 dog names in my lifetime and that was the name he came with ...Max. He was a gentle but giant Siberian Husky, of course.
Hey Pam, no Satchel or Lilly names..........what kind of a deal is that?
In the cat department there was no KIDDY MEAT or DINO or
MINNIE or MR.PEABODY or SQUIRREL OR EVEN A MAMA.
GEE WHIZ.........
I've known several Max's........I think I dated a Max...heh
Hey Roooby -
No Tinkerbell, Sophie, Onyx aka Onnie or Bo Jackson either. Now I would have thought those would have been popular also (hee, hee).
I still LOVE our names. I think you should come to Memphis to visit us and bring Mr. Peabody. We could take him to The Peabody to meet the famous marching ducks there!
Kathleen and Roooby - I think it just shows we have alot of
"originality" when we pick out our names. Heeee! :)
Rooby - at least you didn't date anyone named "Bubba". :)
Lucky for me! SADIE, the golden dog's name!! :-)
I had a cat named was Angel in the past!...
Well no Cloudy on the list for a cat name????
Oh well!!
