lno and I are getting a new puppy - he will be working in my research program as well as likely training for SAR.
We’re looking for a pirate call-name for him.
So far, nothing really comes up to mind, but here’s a list of some suggested names. PLEASE give us ideas!
For inspiration, here’s a picture of the little dude.
Ahoy
Avast
Brig
Bucko
Chaos
Clipper
Grog
Hearty
Jack
Matey
Mutiny
Pirate
Rum
Sail
Timber
Wag
I have to get a name out by the end of the day at the very latest for my ID guy to issue puppy’s training card. AAAH!
Eve:
Call him “Arrrrrr .”
Believe it or not, I had actually contemplated that
Arrrr!

He looks like a Jack. I like Jack. It’s a nice solid respectable-pirate name.
Do *not * name him Chaos. Or Mutiny. It’s just inviting the gods to laugh at you and make him live up to his name. I had two ferrets once named Loki and Kali. WTF was I thinking?
Lucky Jack Aubrey, or maybe just Lucky Jack for short.
I like Grog or Rum personally, but what about Davey Jones?

Bzzt! Davey Jones makes me think Monkee, not pirate. Despite the locker. YMMV
Dread Pirate Roberts? That way you can keep giving the name to any subsequent dogs.
How about Morgan or Drake ? He’s just adorable!

Buccaneer
Doubloon
Scurvy Dog! (my fave)
Lafitte
Yo Ho Ho
The Plank
“Where are you going?”
“Oh, I’m just off out to walk the plank”
Eve:
Call him “Arrrrrr .”
Oh, now, how about Arrrrrrf?
or how about something like Blue Eyed Pete?
