Name That Dog

We pick our puppy up a week from today. She is a 4 1/2 month old pure bred Cairn Terrier who has yet to be named. So far she has simply been known as "Female #3". Naturally, since she is to be River's puppy, we decided to let River name her. Her idea was to name her "Fifi" after a toy stuffed dog that she already owns. Nope. I just can't hear myself calling for a "Fifi" - time for a Plan B.. except there is no Plan B.
.
Help.
.
I am completely stumped. This is the same breed as Dorothy's dog "Toto" from The Wizard of Oz but we can't name her "Toto". Not only does that sound like a boy's name but I would imagine about half of all Cairn Terriers go by that name.
.




Love that mischievous sideways glance. She and River will be a formidable duo.

Just in from a snowy adventure.

If you have any ideas, please feel free to send them our way. Something original, fun yet slightly distinguished. Oh.. actually we need 3 names for the AKC registration. Yea, I can't think of one decent name and I'm supposed to come up with 3? Niiiiiice.

.

If you can think of anything, please let me know in the comments section or send it to us in an email at agirlnamedriver@yahoo.com.

Thanks,


Rob, Jo & River

I think she looked like a Zoe Elle Collier!
But when I really looked at her she looked like
Honey Bee Collier.... So it's a toss up! Good Luck!! I am so excited for River ... I love puppies!
