Ok y'all. Help me out. What are some good dog names?? Like a friend has a dog Ranger, which I could see a hipster parent naming their child but it seems like a dog name to me, not a person name. Can y'all think of others of that ilk? I tried googling for lists but they were all people names. I may go with that or something fannish, but my preference is to avoid naming a dog John or Mary! (No shade to those who do, just not my first preference)

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

What are some good dog names??

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hm, most of the dogs I have known have ad people names. Will ponder.

Lol. To shout out in full yes, but I'm trying to imagine how you shorten that—"c'mere, Herc!"? I guess I want no more than two syllables in a short form!

This too shall pass.

My dogs have been Martha, Ralph, Ladyjane, Brandy, Schwartz (short for Arnold), Zoe, and Skinner. Some of them had been already named.

My family had cats named Marshmallow and Marple Newton, as well as Piglet and Christopher Robin.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I feel like I require dog details before trying to come up with names.

Absolutely. Ralph was exactly the right name for Ralph. He was a scruffy Lhasa Apso rescue, kinda sweet and goofy. Schwarzenegger was a very macho shepherd. And Zoe of course was a strong feminine warrior dog. Skinner just tries to be the boss of my cats.

Really, a picture would be better.
