That sounds interesting. Can we come up with six Cajun Chef names? ---

[QUOTE=It’s Not Rocket Surgery!] Yikes? What kind of shelter would euthanize a nursing mother??? On-topic, how about “Prudhomme” as a name? [/QUOTE] Prudhomme I like, might be too “Frenchy” for my friend (the guy whose dad was born in France, pfffbtl :p). As for the euthanization, it’s an extremely overcrowded animal control. From what I gather, even during the best of times, strays and lost pets are given a week before the most adoptable ones are put up for adoption, while the rest get the axe.

Sorry for the late bump/post. I got a puppy today. It was a surprise from my husband. Yes, a welcome surprise. Since I put down my dog that was 16, I’ve been existing in this odd world where I am dogless. It’s been more distressing than I thought. Anyway, we had one of those puppies once. Someone stole him, but his name was Fat Boy. He was a grey with black spots and blue eyed cutie. Now, I’ll be off trying to top the name Jezebel. ---

I realize that it’s not a cajun, nor even Louisiana name, but if your friend will consider Gambit, perhaps [Batman](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=242282)\* isn’t out of the question, either? \*Be sure to read down to at least post #31 ---

After seeing the picture, I formally withdraw the name “Dammit” I nominate the following 6 names (of the Magnificent 7): Brynner McQueen Bronson Coburn Vaghn & Dexter ---

The Magnificent 7 idea is pretty cool, but McQueen is the closest thing to a girls’ name there… Hmmm. Or maybe, along with Batman, could have Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and the rest of the Justice League. Wow. Superdorky. ---

Oh dear. The Jezebel pix error out on me. ☹ But Bisquee (the French pronunciation) is very cute. ---

Same here, with the same results. Suck up that puppy breath before it goes. ---

Wow, that was odd. The links work now. Didn’t mean to tease… I’m a dyed in the wool southerner. A french pronunciation would make my granpa roll in his…damnit, what do cremated people do? ---

I think **Taxi** would be a good name for a dog… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/puppy-naming-help/411245.md?page=1)
