The girlfriend and I are getting a puppy here in a few weeks, and we need a name for it.  The problem is of course we both spend hours sitting at an MMO char creation screens trying to think one up, so we need some help on this one.

Unfortunately, I can't name it Nerf :(

It's a blue merle miniature australian shepherd with 2 blue eyes, should be around 15lbs fully grown.  We may end up with a black tri instead, it depends on if this one is breedable.

Yup, you must name the dog Fippy now...sorry.

Hey, it could be worse. Someone in my family named their dog "Kitty." I have no fucking idea where they came up with that one.

Yes Fippy Barkpaw has a nice ring to it (can't use Darkpaw cause his paws aren't, uh, dark). He's even the same color as Fippy (not including the white). awesome, for real

She never played everquest, and I lasted about a week, so EQ-related names are out.

How about, "GODDAMNITDON'TPISSONTHECARPET!"?

You could name it 'Bark Country' but then Schild would come over to your house and take his ball the dog away.

"Licked Outta Goonswarm"?

Though, I think you should just name it ALLCAPS.

Don't be silly.  I have a black cat named Magenta.  You're named Trippy and I bet you're not ever on acid.  Look at Nerf's name.  Never mind.  That one fits, actually.

I like Fippy, too, although I wouldn't bother with a surname.  Bent and Spacefag are also quite nice.  If you're going to show it, it's probably better for all those to be affectionate nicknames.  Of course since it's Australian, you could get away with giving it a name like Boing Boing or Humpybong.

People names for dogs just seem weird to me, with the exception of Einstein, but since he's not a corgi or a corgi mix, that would just feel wrong.

The dog is clearly communicating with a prop that his name is Matt and getting very frustrated that humans are too stupid to understand. Re-examine the photos with this in mind.

15 lbs? My cat weighs 15 lbs!

I always liked using the names of famous companions/helpers/sidekicks from literature. I had a dog named Starbuck when I was in college. 

Some other good ones:

Littlejohn, Samwise, Friday, Watson, Patroclos


Here's a good list of dog names from literature:

Krypto. Then buy him a little red cape to wear.

More seriously I really like Fippy, even if I didn't recognise where I knew the name from till someone mentioned EQ. I think it's a cool name for a pet.
