Tips for the perfect name

  • Choose a name that suits your dog. Think about what characteristics, preferences or special features your dog has and look for a name that reflects these. For example: Flocke for a white dog, Luna for a nocturnal dog or Balu for a cozy dog.
  • Avoid names that are too long or too complicated. Your dog should be able to easily recognize and respond to its name. A short and simple name is therefore more suitable than a long and difficult name. For example: Max instead of Maximilian, Bella instead of Isabella or Rex instead of Alexander.
  • Take inspiration from your favorite movies, books or series. If you're a big fan of a particular story or character, you can give your dog a name from that source. This can be a nice tribute and create a special connection with your dog. For example: Simba from The Lion King, Harry from Harry Potter or Arya from Game of Thrones.
  • Be creative and original. There are no rules on what to name your dog, so let your imagination run wild. You can give your dog a name that is funny, cute, unusual or unique. This can give your dog a special personality and set you apart from other dog owners. For example: Woofy, Schnuffle, Zorro or Cookie.
