What about 'Brick' - cos staffies are buit like a brick sh!thouse.

If single syllable is what you're after, then look for something that can be shortened. It'll expand the number of choices you have.
E.g. One of our dogs (mini schnauzer) is named Walter. Can be shortened to Walt.

You can't name a dog before you get it!! The name should come straight to you when you first bring her home.

I had a black cat once, I got him from the local animal shelter...Called him 'Parky'.

Because the day I got him he was black and homeless!

ops sorry thats a boy dog name......

svo supporter · 28-09-2009, 06:31 PM

My other dog is a chowuwa cross. (Wrong spelling I know) She is as black as the ace of spades and called shadow, because she follows us everywhere. It took 3 days to think of a suitable name for that one.

So as someone suggested, wait til it gets home and go from there.

By the way, when she misbehaves, she's called

I got two dogs, lab x staffy called tooheys (male), cos I woke up hung over after a night out on extra dry and bought a dog! Next one I got is a staffy x mastiff (female) and its called Indie. If I had of got another male i'd of called it Rocket, as in red rocket. Which is what my next one will be called!

Brick works for me, being a Staffie not only does it look like one, but it's about as clever as one as well!

BlueKoop · 29-09-2009, 12:12 PM

I named mine after one of my fav movies, predator, So I have Poncho, and the next dog will be Dutch.

Paris, good name for a bi*ch

There's something to be said for not using human names.

My cat's name is "Tammie" and a few weeks ago she was going nuts and kept jumping at the TV. I started saying "no tammie!" in a harsh tone when she'd go near it and my missus would clap her hands together to distract her. Hour or so later I get a knock on the door. Car load of police. Thinking Tammie was a person and the claps were them getting slapped around my neighbours had put in domestic violence call! Cops laughed but I'm still getting dirty looks every time I drive in and out of the driveway.

zdcol71 · 29-09-2009, 07:57 PM

Called my fist dog " Russel Travis Pig Monster the 3rd", a bull terrier I bought from a cockie out west.
Shortened to "Piggy"
Russel, cause he was as big as Russ Hinze; Travis, cause he was as mad as Travis Bickel (Taxi Driver), Pig monster cause he was a pig dog and monstered everything he touched ,and 3rd cause I'm sure there were 2 before him. Next dog is ' Iggy" as in Iggy Pup"

Please don't call it Kaitland or Skye, or some other such nom de plume, call it what you think is appropriate to it's charachter !!

xr6turboford · 30-09-2009, 09:36 AM

DNA, because they leave heaps of it (dogs hairs) lying around.

XR6_661 · 30-09-2009, 10:25 AM

'Pothole'

Because she will always be in the 'road' (read: way)

Black F6 · 30-09-2009, 10:37 AM

I had a Staffy years ago called Bruiser. Bloody great dog, shame they grow old and move on. Currently got a red called Rufus. Missus has a 10 month old Black staf called Tara (as in tar/bitumen.)

Tittswobble...
Incase you lose your dog you can go around asking 'have you seen my Tittswobble?'

or you can go with...
Boofhead can be shortend to Boof.
Paws is a good one.
Khe sanh is another one I like.

Simple solution. Get rid of the missus! You get a dog, costs less in the long run, more love and affection. How can you go wrong?

RepSpec · 01-10-2009, 01:27 PM

named my girl "Matilda"
she is a Rhodesian Ridgeback X Rough collie (lassie dog)

Fev · 01-10-2009, 10:22 AM

Call it Timmy or Jimmy.

Ozzyosko · 01-10-2009, 01:50 PM

How about something relating to the colour of the dog. Being a blue staffy, how about something like Sapphire, Cobalt, Scilla, or Skye.

Not blue related, but Jade's a good female name.

Readie9 · 01-10-2009, 01:53 PM

How about calling it "Minton". When he's a naughty dog you go......"Bad-Minton" hehe

or

Call him "Syndrome". If he jumps up on the couch you say "Get down-Syndrome".
