Help naming new lab pup
« on: August 24, 2019, 08:16:50 AM »
Hey guys looking for suggestions & opinions for our new little chocolate male coming home in about 10 days. Here’s a few details to help the decision.

Mother is a chocolate named Tikka & dad is a charcoal named Trigger. Our current chocolate is Gunner. Naturally with Tikka being the mother & the gun name theme being throughout, I thought Sako was a no brainer & pronouncing it with a long A like most people mispronounce the rifle company. The wife is fighting me a little & quite a few people were lukewarm to Sako as well. Other names I somewhat like are Remmy,Hunter & Ranger.

So we need some help. Opinions on the names I listed & some suggestions from the huntwa family would be a huge help. :tup:

Here are a few for you to try out. Maxus, Iver, Higgins, Daly, Ljutic, Briley, Luger, Marlin, Midas, Nosler, Rossi, Ruger, Colt, and my all time favorite....Stoner. You call that name in the field and you might get more of a response than you care for though.

I like historical names since I am a bit of a history buff. Two I have liked if I ever got a male lab was Lincoln and call him Link or Gatsby.
