I am getting a female german shepherd puppy here in a couple weeks and i've been trying to think of a good name for here and i really wanted to pick something from the Malazan books but most that i can think of just don't make great pet names and my girlfriend needs to approve of it. Just wondering if any of you had anything good in mind. Of course i've gone through the regular hound names like blind, baran, etc... I just don't imagine yelling, "Blind!" throughout my neighborhood. It should be something that would actually sound decent yelling, but i haven't read any of the books in awhile so I cant think of too many names. Just wondering if anyone had any good ideas... thanks!

My dog is named Spindle. You can use that. Or not if you don't want a "used" dog name.

If you name it Icarium you could call it Iccy for short.

I am naming my future dog Aooga though.

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

Do YOU want to yell out "FIDDLER!" at a dog park?

Didn't think so ... :p
