I'm Looking For Names!

Post by **Wolfyu** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 7:13 pm

Thanks for all of the suggestions!

Gizmo seems to be a popular one. I've never seen "Gremlins", though. I might have to watch it before I name my dog Gizmo.

Freya sounds very nice. I like that one.

Corky is a VERY common name for corgis. Not that I don't like it. It's just that there seem to be a lot of corgis with that name.

Ein. I have no idea how to pronounce that, but the Ein in the picture looks pretty cute.

Ein is German for one. It's pronounced the German way in the show... like aye (as in yes) with an n on the end. Pretty easy.

You haven't seen Gremlins?

Do watch it. It's a great movie and has its funny parts.(avoid the second Gremlins movie though, it's horrible)

the only part of Gremlins 2 that is anywhere near funny is Phoebe Cates' recounting of another tragic holiday mishap in her character's past...

Corky is also my bird's name,so it would be a little confusing to have us both talking about our pet,Corky.(My bird's also known as the EVIL little Pitbull-bird hybrid!I'm not kidding!)

Wolfie, I dare you to name it Ryou if it is a male!

Seriously, Cooper is a good name for a male. For a female, maybe Asprosa, which I got from the greek word aspros, meaning white, for a corgi's white underbelly.

But if I named it Ryou and I went to Japan people would think I had a dog named "Tapir".

Asprosa...I have no idea how to pronounce that either. As-pro-suh?

Something royal might suit. I hear tell that one of them queens across that there big ol pond has corgis.

edit: how many times does a katie have to edit her post before she gets it right?

i always wanted to get a dog (preferably a great dane) and name it "kitty". ^_^

i'd have a sign posted outside of my house that says "BEWARE OF KITTY"

So? All good names have to have meaning, even if it doesn't make sense!

To tell you the truth, I don't know how to pronouce it either. I think you got it.
