Ok Seriousaly been having issues naming this dog. So wanted to see if you guys had any ideas. Please note for training purposes, I want names with 2 syllables, as msot commands like Sit, Stay and such are 1 syllable. Helps the dog figure out whats a command and whats his own name. I am looking for geekey, computer, or gaming based names that are generally a little different form standard dog names. I have 3 different names in mind (one added by Softball)

Ascii (pronounced Aes-Ke, its a geek thing)
Gizmo
Glitch

Any other ideas or thoughts on the listed names ????

How about "Cerebus"?

I thought that was spelled cerberus

How about "Cartman"?

glitch is not two syllables and you are already violating your own policy...

dogs respond well to names with "B's" in them...and short vowels - not long vowels.

did any of the Ewoks have names??? how about a hobbit name?

There's Wicket but I dont think that name would work.

I had a Himalayan cat named Wicket but he liked being called 'Mr. Fuzzy' just as well.

Maybe a paintball-related name: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_o ... ball_Terms

Like, say, Satchel Charge - like what puppies sometimes leave on the carpet.

What about Widget?

Ok here goes,



Breetai: Clan from Robotech

Robo: short for robotic dog

Bruno: Something he’d like to be after seeing your next door neighbors Rottweiler

Bounder: Cuz That comes after Bruno

Bowie: Cuz you know being named after a Bowie knife is badass.

Ronon: As in Ronon Dex from Stargate Atlantis

Loki: From a Battle Mech in Mech Warrior




2000 Dog Names

Here are some names I came up with, some you may have already eliminated but I'll list them anyway:

REBOOT
JPEG (JAY-PEG)
TATOO
NEMO
POGO
BETA
CODEC
TIVO (The DVR)
HAXOR
WAREZ
NEWBIE
DEETOO (like R2-D2)
PEEKAY (like PK, Player killer in games)
DOOKEE
XIZOR (Zigh-zor)

Little late guys lol. By the time you guys had really started posting names, I had already been to petsmart and had his name tag made lol

So the pup is now called Ascii. I know I am a geek but hey, it dose sound very similar to the names of other small dogs I have had, specifically Jessey, Sandy and Hershey. Say them and they do sound some what similar when said.

so you named your dog after an obscure character based key code system....

Yep...your a Geek

obscure, man its not obscure considering how much its used. Hell even these forms are using ASCII standard for text.
but hey I am a Geek, plus I like they way it sounds lol.

At least he didn't call him Unicode. Lol! Congrats on picking a name!


Here is his name in Dec, Hex, and Bin format:

Dec: 065 115 099 105 105

Hex: 041 073 063 069 069

Bin: 01000001 01110011 01100011 01101001 01101001

You could have given your dog a Tron-inspired name like:

MCP
Bit
Derezz

Ok, I would love to see someone at 3 am calling out

Bin: 01000001 01110011 01100011 01101001 01101001

1/2 way through make a mistake, and the dog says, hey thats a different dog, not me
