so I'm restarting my post because I posted it right. Before the update last night and it seems to have disappeared. Tomorrow we are going to look at this beautiful little pup (current name Alaska) and if all goes well she will be ours. I figured since you guys are so good with baby names and after having read the pet names discussion that you could help me think of something cute for this little sweetie pie. ( our former dogs were Tia and Charley, both came with their names)

I'll clarify a bit too. I worked at a doggy daycare before and am turned off of the most common dog names because I saw so many ie. Max, Molly, Maggie, Charlie, Bailey, Rex, etc. open to some creativity.
I'm ok with "dog" names just not the overdone ones. I've had a charley and have 3 other friends with dogs named Charlie. Lena is cute. So is Matilda( prob shorten it to tilly). Frieda is my awful coworker( hmm that could be funny) and pia is a no because our old girl was Tia. I actually think her given name Alaska is very cute and very dog but we want to explore our options.
I read a long time ago that animals respond best to names that end in the long e sound.

I have read that too!!! Our dogs are Sadie, Millie, and Morti(after Mordecai 3-finger brown-I guess a Cubs pitcher-oh, and she's a girl). I bet you can guess.....DH named the last one. He never lets me down!! Lmao ~X(
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. We brought our cute girl home today and decided to name her Aurora after the northern lights (aurora borealis). But for something cute and easy to say we will call her Rory for short☺️
Thanks everyone she's settling in nicely. Some people think I'm crazy for having a puppy and newborn at once but luckily I'm off work for a year so lots of time to make things work
Re: Who wants to name a puppy?!
