Help! I need some puppy name ideas please! :~)

OK, you guys always help out Davedrum pick out wonderful doggie names whenever he rescues.  I thought you could maybe give me some good ideas too.  I have never been real good at naming anything.  I had a hamster for 2 years once and it took me 2 months to just start calling him Hammy.  I know, I know.....I'm ingenious!  ;)  This precious little boxer needed a home, but I have no idea what to call her and my DH says I'm the one that gets to name her.  She is my very first dog.

I have a tough time naming pets, and have wanted to revise one of mine. I named my lab/rott rescue mix Riley before I realized what a popular name it is...I cringe at the dog park!  I actually wound up with my second rescue after joking that she'd have to have a name totally off the wall for a dog, like Martha; lo and behold there was Martha waiting to be rescued on my next visit to the local rescue agency!

So, based on that, I'd pick something totally rockstar - whatever that means to you.  For example, I'd like to change Riley's name to Gene Simmons. 

For you, maybe as an ode to a favorite author, painter, local activist, blogger, etc.? 

Sometimes you just have to practice and see what fits!

Whatever you decide on, you'll probably wind up with several nicknames anyway - just have fun with it and congrats on the little cutie moving into your life!! :)
