It's time to choose a name...whatcha got?

My wife has already picked a name...and I like it, but we still have a few days before we we lock it in. I might be able to convince her to change her mind. We're 99% sure it will be a female.

Whatcha got? Extra credit for names that require an explanation.

Previously rejected by wife:

• Peeve
• Apex (but possible if a male)
• Any callsign from Top Gun (rejected by me too actually)
• Any MotoGP rider

I mean, what's the dog look like would be my first question, any characteristics that would lend itself to naming?

That a great suggestion, but we don't know exactly which one we will choose. Typical light colored Malinois.

So.

Can’t start with an S right?
Assuming your training the pooch in English.

I will think about it.

Off the top off my head I like Nyx, the primeval goddess of night.

Easy to say. Short. Unique sound a Dog can grasp.

My idea was always to name a dog Shithead and everytime you called it, people would think yer mean but not the dog, who'd love ya the way they do. Especially if I got a Rhodesian Ridgeback who supposedly always runs away for miles.

But that's okay, you can pass. Pick something clear and sharp for a Malinois, like some kinda elf name or something. Such great dogs. You don't want something sloppy for such a sleek critter.
