Your new dog is everything you would have hoped; sweet, furry, and super cute. The only thing your puppy is missing is a moniker, and a good one at that. "Puppy" and "sweetie" can only go so far. In this article I'll try and show you the best and inventive ways to give your dog a great name worthy of his character.

  1. Try a baby name book. An obvious choice, a baby name book has thousands and thousands of names, and sometimes even a description of what the name means. Think of adjectives that describe your dog, and see if you can find a name which fits that quality.

  2. Flip through a dictionary and point randomly at a page. Sometimes this is a great way to find your pet an amusing and personal name. Although you will probably come across some that will obviously not work, keep trying. This is how a friend of mine named her dog. While flipping through the dictionary, she set her finger on "Rio de Janeiro." And now the dog is named Rio, and the name fits perfectly.

  3. Find names of gods and goddesses. This is another great way to get your dog a unique name that means something. Look through a Greek mythology book at the library, or look at a website full of Greek or Roman names. KatyBerry provides a listing of Greek and Roman goddesses, and there is quite a selection. FolkloreAndMyth offers a list of gods and goddesses from many different cultures.

  4. Consider the names of people you may know, or have known. This sounds basic and somewhat strange, but you can actually come up with some great names if you think about it. We had a dog named Byron who was named after a man who worked with my mother.
