Tips for choosing a name your dog will love

Every name in our generator is hand-picked rather than randomly assembled, so you won’t get odd letter combinations. Still, the best name is one that works in everyday life:

  • Keep it short. One or two syllables are easiest for dogs to pick out.
  • Avoid command sound-alikes. “Bo” can sound like “no”; “Kit” like “sit”.
  • Say it out loud. Imagine calling it across a busy park — still happy with it?
  • Think long-term. “Tiny” is cute until your puppy is 40 kg.
