Not every person knows that a dog can have more than just a pet name. Pedigree animals that have a pedigree receive a name in the breeder’s home, which fits into the puppy’s metric. Such nicknames usually consist of two or more words, and must also be combined with the name of the kennel and begin with the same letter for the entire litter. Later, the owner of the animal can come up with his own name, which the dog will respond to at home. In these situations, English names for dogs are often chosen.
It is not surprising that both breeders and owners may have a problem with a name for an animal. Especially if many puppies were born in the litter, and each one needs to be given a beautiful, sonorous and memorable name, and even for one letter of the alphabet. Today we offer a solution to this problem and present to your attention the most popular and good-sounding dog names in English.
English names for dogs
Why English?
There are several reasons to come up with a dog name in English. Firstly, it is convenient for breeders. Many catteries have English names so that potential owners or other overseas breeders can pronounce the animal's full name correctly. It is logical that the animal’s name, which is next in the metric before or after the name of the nursery, should be consonant.
The nickname should be consonant with the name of the nursery and easily pronounceable by foreigners
Secondly, many English words sound more compact, sonorous and more attractive than nicknames in other languages, including Russian. A successful dog name should contain two to three syllables, be pronounced clearly, and be audible over a long distance, so that the owner can call the pet at any time. Plus - English words are easily abbreviated, turning into digestible combinations for both the owner and the puppy. For example, the English name Donald can be shortened to Don, and Maxwell to Max.
Rottweiler
This breed is considered one of the most terrible and evil in the whole world .
Such dogs tend to establish relationships with only one person, and after getting closer, trusting another owner will be problematic. The Rottweiler originated in Germany. The original intention of creating the breed was spectacle and pleasure. The dogs were released into stadiums where they ran cross-country, after which they also began to be used for fights.
Rules for choosing a nickname for a dog in English
First of all, when naming a puppy, you need to rely on its characteristics: origin of the breed, size, external characteristics, character. Next you need to pay attention to the choice of the word itself. The dog's name should sound loud and clear, since the puppy will not be able to perceive a word with hissing or dull letters, as well as a nickname that is too long and complex. It is necessary to avoid the consonance of the name with common commands, for example: “Sit!” and Cindy, "Ugh!" and Fus, "Fas!" and Farce, "Aport!" and Port.
A dog's name should sound loud
An important point is to make sure in advance that the chosen word is translated correctly, so as not to call the animal a piece of furniture or a word that sounds meaningless or indecent. If you choose a double nickname, you need to check that the words fit together to form a meaningful phrase. For example, according to the documents, the puppy may be called Baby Love (from English, as “beloved baby”), but Baby Hard (from English, as “heavy baby”) will sound strange.
When using adjectives, make sure they apply to the specific breed or puppy. You should not call the red dog Black Moon (from English, as “black moon”), and the snow-white dog – Fire River (from English, as “fiery river”). It is worth remembering that the names of dogs born in Russian kennels will be written in transliteration, that is, the English pronunciation will be recorded in Russian letters.
Representatives of different breeds do not always have the same nicknames.
Let us remind you that according to the rules, all puppies with a pedigree must be named with one letter, corresponding to the serial number of litters in a particular nursery. That is, puppies born to the breeder for the first time should be named with the letter “A”, the second litter – with the letter “B” and so on. Activation of puppies - that is, the application of a tattoo-stamp with an individual number, as well as the inclusion of nicknames in the metric, is carried out on the 45th day after their birth. If a person already intends to purchase a puppy, he can convey his wishes regarding the name to the breeder. If this does not happen, the nursery owner comes up with names on his own, often using the same theme.
For example, the nursery is called “From the Great Pack”, and the letter given to the litter is A. The breeder can choose names for the puppies that are based on the theme of cities around the world. For males: Amsterdam, Abu Dhabi, Akron, for females: Alexandria, Atlanta, Adelaide. When combined it becomes: “Atlanta of the Great Pack.” As you understand, the theme can be anything to suit the taste of the future owner or manager of the nursery. Dog names that have vowel endings sound great: Domino, Bingo, Whiskey, Toronto, Galaxy. They can be called both male and female puppies, regardless of breed.
Name of a purebred pet
When you purchase a purebred puppy (no matter from a breeder or a kennel club), remember that he already has a “passport” name. As a rule, it is quite long, compiled according to certain rules of canine associations, and is not suitable for use in everyday life. It is unlikely that you will be able to call your pet Visconti Dog North Arlington or Ereysad de le Benhamien every time. Club nicknames are used only for exhibitions and other official events, but based on them you can “generate” beautiful names for a male puppy. So, Visconti dog North Arlington may well receive the nickname Whiskey, North or Nord, Arly, Tone, and Ereysad de le Benhamien will become Benei, Ray or Khan.

Below we will look at what name you can choose for a pet depending on its gender, breed, size or nuances of character.
American Bulldog
This breed originated at the beginning of the 17th century.
The American Bulldog is intended for driving and guarding livestock. But since this breed was too rough, and there were often attacks on animals, they decided to give it to fights and street shows. The American Bulldog chased bulls, rams and goats with the goal of killing the victim. The outcome was different: either the dog died or was injured, or the livestock became the victim.

- Starry sky – “starry sky”;
- Milky Way – “Milky Way”;

When choosing a name for a dog, it is best to focus on the breed characteristics of the animal.
Typically, two-part dog names are a combination of an adjective and a noun. Knowing at least something about the appearance of the animal (color, size), its character (active, mischievous, calm), you can easily create a complex nickname in English. Below we will tell you how to successfully name a puppy of any breed.
English nicknames for different dog breeds
It is not news that any purebred or mongrel dog has its own external and behavioral characteristics and characteristics. By noticing them, a person will be able to quickly decide on a name for the pet. So, the name Goldie (“golden”) would be perfect for a golden retriever, Iron (“iron”) for a muscular Staffordshire terrier, Ice (“ice”) for an Alaskan malamute, and Kludi (“cloud”) for a charming fluffy spitz.
Staffordshire Terrier
You can choose a nickname based on the color of the animal. A dog of black or dark color can be called Black (black - “black”) or Dark (dark – “dark”), white, respectively, White. When naming a dog, remember its breed qualities and typical behavior. Thus, a hound can be named Racer (“racer”), a spaniel can be named Hunter (“hunter”), and a water-loving Labrador can be named River (“river”). Guard dogs need to choose powerful and strong nicknames - Sharon, Rocky, Eclipse. Companion dogs - calm and gentle ones, like Sheila, Kevin or Romeo. Hunters should be named as briefly as possible so that the name sounds like a summoning command: Loki, Toro, Zena.
Hunters should be named as briefly as possible
For small, decorative dogs, it is better to choose soft nicknames, with the ability to change them into a diminutive form. Breeds such as the Yorkshire Terrier, Maltese, Toy Terrier, Papillon are well suited for the names Tootsie, Betsy, Jaco, Puffy and the like. Funny dogs, designed to cheer up a person and always be nearby, can be named Goofy, Snupp, Fly. “Working” dogs, large and serious dogs, on the contrary, are given tougher-sounding names: Cora, Vesta, Karma, Viscount, Baxter. Considering that with a large dog you definitely need to train, it is important not to name it in consonance with the commands (we talked about this above).
Despite the fact that the dog does not understand the meaning embedded in its nickname, it perfectly reads the intonation of the owner calling it by name. If a small puppy is called with a harsh-sounding word, he may react negatively, thinking that he is being scolded. On the contrary, during the training process, a name that is too soft or too long can confuse the dog. Breeders recommend not giving the animal a name at the first moment, unless it comes to your mind.
You need to take a closer look at the puppy for a couple of days, perhaps try to choose a nickname with him. To do this, you need to pronounce words with different combinations of letters, observing which ones interest your pet.
“Lucky” letters need to be remembered or even written down in order to later make up a suitable nickname from them

Nicknames in English from films, cartoons and books
Often, owners choose a name for their pet based on personal preferences. Some people like heroes from TV series or films, others prefer book characters. In fact, literature, television, music are areas from which you can draw very successful, original names for dogs. We have selected some options that may appeal to the owner of a puppy of any breed.

This is a sample list based on characters that are very popular. Based on their taste, each puppy owner will be able to choose a name for him, remembering his favorite movie or leafing through a book by an English or American author.
By the way, this is another reason to name the dog in English. It is not customary to use human names, common in Russia, in order to avoid awkward situations. Calling the dog and shouting “Petya, Petya!” to the whole yard, you can confuse or offend a person with the same name. It is much more correct to give the animal a foreign name, because the chance of meeting Harry, Sarah or Donald in a Russian city tends to zero.
Some dogs are so charismatic that it’s easy to come up with a nickname for them.
The most popular dog names
There is a fashion for names for pets, just like for people. Every year, an association of veterinary clinics, companies selling products for dogs, and cynological organizations compile a rating that includes the most popular nicknames for male and female dogs. We have compiled the latest top dog names, which are most often chosen by owners from all over the world, in the form of a convenient table.

Celebrity names as dog names
Often, when looking for a sonorous combination in English designed to become a name for a dog, owners settle on already existing names that have practically become brands. It turns out especially funny when the dog actually bears a resemblance to the famous person who gave it its name.
For a dog, the main thing is that the nickname is well remembered and sounds simple
When naming a dog like a celebrity, you need to take into account the characteristics of both. Thus, large and active dogs can be made namesakes of athletes (for example, Mike Tyson, Marco Reus, Neymar, Michael Schumacher). For sophisticated and charismatic breeds, the names of actors or musicians (Johnny Depp, Rihanna, Britney Spears, Katy Perry) are suitable. Serious and impressive pets can be given the names of politicians (Richard Nixon, George Washington, Harry Truman). For dogs with a bright appearance and an open character, you can choose a nickname to match, choosing Hollywood stars as the prototype (for example, Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Harrison Ford).

Summarizing
There are a great variety of suitable English names for dogs. To successfully choose a name for a puppy, the owner needs to strain his memory (for favorite characters) or imagination (to be original), and maybe watch his pet and understand which nickname suits him best.
Do not forget that the dog will become a full member of the family and will live with you for many years, responding to its name. Make sure that it pleases all household members, meets the rules of sonority and brevity, and is not devoid of logic and grace. We hope that the above text helped you decide what to name the puppy in English. We wish you good luck and many joyful moments from communicating with your pet!
