Help Name the Dog

Post by VEGETA »

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 ????

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. :o

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.

MCP
Bit
Derezz
