What Should I Name My Girl Puppy?
Before you decide on a name, spend a little time getting to know your new puppy. You want to come up with a name that delights you, but also fits their personality.
If you want to go for something tried and true, pick from our most popular female dog names list. If, however, you don't want to constantly hear "that's my dog's name too," avoid the popular names and choose from our unique female dog names list.
Here are some other factors to keep in mind as you weigh your options.
Getting Your Dog's Attention
The best names to get your dog's attention have hard consonants and use only one to two syllables. Longer names, with three to four syllables, are harder for dogs to distinguish and are less likely to attract their attention. Take this into consideration and it will help you once you start training your dog!
Confused Commands
Avoid names that sound similar to standard basic commands. Do not name your dog anything that sounds remotely like “sit,” “heel,” “come,” or “no.” Otherwise, your dog is likely to get confused and will not understand if you're calling her name or issuing a command. Once again, this could make it very challenging to train your pup.
