Name help?

I'm just brainstorming names and wondered if any of you clever chazzers could help?!

PotentialPuppy will most likely be a Rat Terrier--if things go as planned, should be conceived this month! Eek!- male or female / leaning towards male but I wouldn't turn down a pup that was a good fit & female.

We want something that goes with or sounds good with Crossbone (but not Skull....). Not looking for cutesy or super gender specific. We are more Black Plague people vs glitter and rainbows, if ya know what I mean. and obscure vs normal.

Brainstorming call name & registered name that go well together.

These are a random list of random thoughts and ideas but we are not limited to this list...

Pox (number 1 at this point-small pox, Black Plague, rat bite fever, etc)
Pestilence Rat
Pox appeal
Plague Rat
Darkly Dreaming

Hypoxia (as call name with a cool reg name?)

Flare or Flair

Frostbite

Hops (we LOVE hoppy beer)

Lluks (Skull backwards?)

Flea / Flee


HALP?!

Roger. As in the Jolly Roger.

Hazmat. Hazord. Hazardous (for a girl - like...hazer-dess, making it feminine?!).

That's all I got.

(Totally love Pox!)

Morbid you say...dark you say... okay you asked for it



Trauma with the registered name being Blunt Force Trauma
Sabotage
Zombie
Mayhem
Marauder
Rigor Mortis (with Rigor being the call name)

I knew I could count on you!

Morbid is good...but it also has to be PG to a degree-- the dog(s) do come to work once in a while


Blackrose---Ooo! I do like Hazmat! & Jolly Roger --how did I not think of that?

Danger? There is a character in the Dark Hunter (Sherrilyn Kenyon) books called Danger.

I think Rigor, Pox, and Hazmat are cool.

I would have to go with Pox, it's short and easy to say and AWESOME for a rat terrier!

How about "Lux?" So it's a reference but not quite so obvious?

Rigor Mortis is a good one, it could just be call name "Rig" too. Which is like also totally a pirate (ship) reference.

Buccaneer -- Call name Buck? Buc?

It's on my list of pirate themed names but I'll likely never use it.

I like Lux and Hypoxia (ooh with the reg. name something like 'takes my breath away' or 'left me breathless').

Flatline
Crow
Hearse
Mr. Crowley
Ded/Dead
Tombstone

It is a terrier. It is gonna have mad hops. Hops gets my vote.

I think this is my favorite naming thread ever. Rig gets my vote!

I love Pox!
The name theme reminded me of my first dog, a min pin named Captain Sharkbait (we called him Sharkbait or Sharky).

Great ideas, guys!

I love the list of three letter names...Pox, Lux, Rig & Hops

As someone who once had rats named Yersinia and pestis, I like Pox, lol

(Kennel)'s Pestilence Party Planner -- "Pox"

(Kennel)'s Life's a Party --"Pox"

I totally love Hops. If you don't name it Hops, I might steal it.

Rigor is an aweome name too- for work, where that would probably be frowned up(?) you could just call him Rig! I love both and they both have meaning! MEANING.

Is it bad that I am about to ask for pictures of unconceived puppies already?

Do you have pictures of mom/dad?

My vote is for Pox! Cool name for a rat terrier.


And Rigby chimes a vote in for Rig....just 'cause
