Which name is the cutest for a female pup?
Tips on Naming Your Pup!
When naming your new family member, there are a number of considerations. Ultimately, you need to figure out which name clicks and resonates with you the most. This is an important decision for your new family member. You may even want to pick several names and see which one grows on you.
Avoid Brand Names
While there may be a temptation to name a young doggy Chanel or Gucci, these types of names may be best avoided. Not only do trends change, but naming your dog after these brands may appear tacky. In addition, naming a dog a brand means that if the brand does something you don't like, you'll be reminded every time you say your dog's name. People will also assume that you are a huge fan of whatever brand you select.
Avoid Human Names
Although I have included many human names here, calling your dog a human name may create some odd situations. For example, if you meet a new person and they have the same name as your dog. While you didn’t mean to insult them, they may take offense automatically. If you do name your dog a human name, consider using the shortened or nicknamed version. Nicknames are not just for regular human names though.
Consider Nicknames
Don't be afraid to give her a long name, as longer names can easily be shortened to cute nicknames. This allows for the pup's name to change as they grow. For example, adding "Madam" or "Princess" before their regular name can be fairly cute. In addition, you can add a description to this, so putting in "the pampered" or "the ruler of the couch".
Think about Cute Rhymes / Multiple Words
A name can be multiple words, especially when they rhyme. Multiple words can also show off characteristics of your pet. For example, Shiloh the Shy or Bubble Cuddles show both a rhyming structure and characteristic. If a two-part name doesn't feel right, you can also add an additional surname, such as Miss or Princess. That could extend a potential name to Princess Bubble Cuddles (likes to cuddle and/or catch bubbles with her mouth).
Questions & Answers
Do you have a dog? And if you do what is its name?
I do! A border collie named Koda.
Helpful 29What is a name for girl sweet as honey?
There are a lot of great names. One of my favorites is "Kebi" which is Egyptian. If you want a slightly punny name; you could go with Bee.
Helpful 22How do you feel about naming a little girl dog a boy name such as Charlie?
I think it's cute! Charlie is a wonderful name for girl dogs and is growing in popularity.
Helpful 8How did you come up with all the meanings of the names?
Some are based on current culture, while others I had to look up.

Amy, wouldn't be difficult to change from Jinx to Jinxie.
I have a brindle lurcher called Jinx, i regret called her jinx because people always think shes a boy so i have to say no shes a girl i should have picked something that is clearly a girls name and also it makes her sound unpredictable and i hate that when i shout jinx people arnt like aww what a cute name they move their children away, if i would of called her lucy or pettle people would be like aww what a cute name the dog must be good, just a heads up for people who are thinking about naming thier dog something unuasual or unique remember people steriotype you and your dog buy what you name it.
If i had a mastiff called tyson people would automatically think council estate but if i had a poodle called milo people would think cute cuddly family dog, just a helpful bit of advice people souldnt judge you on the name of your dog but they do unfortunately.
the name of my dog was toula sadly we had to put her down last year
Our German short haired pointer is named Buckshot because of the spots. Our golden retriever is named Joy because she was born on Christmas Day.
