Male chocolate lab. We are all fighting about what to call him. I thought Count Luciano Faffel was cute but that was shot down. Husband suggested Buddy Joe Brown. (Yuck) So if you all could help us we’d really be grateful. TIA

Some friends had a chocolate lab named Hershey…
I suggest “IMHO,” 'cause that’s where this probably oughta be.
Well I wasn’t sure exactly where to post it and figured if I got it wrong it would be moved.
Well, you sure made my day … I’ve never gotten to be the guy who delivered the “this is in the wrong forum” message before. It’s like being the first one into the new jar of peanut butter.
Please please please please please please
Do not name the poor thing a)Guinness or b)Mocha. It can be tempting, I know, but please restrain yourself.
Here’s something I always thought was cool: Don’t name the dog for a while. Just call it “dog”. Eventually the dog will name itself by its actions, or you will happen upon something that fits the dog perfectly. You can get to know its personality first.
Congrats on the puppy, I bet it’s cute.
Bob.
Peace,

There are to things to consider when naming a dog: the sounds a dog can hear and the sounds that you can shout with authority. Lean toward two-syllable names with hard consonants.
Somebody in chat once suggested “Meth” as a good name for a lab. As in “Meth Lab.”
i agree. so why not save some time and take an authoritative word and make that the name? i would suggest maybe “dammit” or “jesus”. kills two birds with one stone.
I recommend “Milhouse”
Ok. Make that Bobby.
Peace,

I had a black lab named Oswald, best dog I ever owned. And I’m sorry that I ever had to give him up. He always came when I called him and was very loving. Had a girlfriend who had a dog named Zeb. He never came when she called him, but always came when I called him.
This thread is getting moved to its proper forum.

Smooch.
(You know, something smooth and chocolate.)
Well, Bob is ok… Peace is rather quaint… but mangeorge, that’s just a dumb name. 
Name it Dammit.
Can’t you just see it? “Fetch, Dammit!”, “Go inside, Dammit!”, “Dammit, stop humping the pillow!”
Name him “Car Ride”. You’ll drive every other dog in your neighborhood crazy when you call him.
