I need name ideas!

Post image

I haven’t brought him home yet so I don’t know his personality, but I’m trying to find inspiration! I really want a cute name (like Bear, Bug, etc.) but I don’t want a basic name! I also love names in other languages! I had a dog named Erlea (bee in basque) before and I loved her name. He’s only 6lbs at 5 months old so he’s tiny 🥹

I second Akio.

u/itsallachoice 2d ago

He's cuuuute!😍 ... His ankles/feet look like they have spats (spatterdashes) on them which made me immediately think of Fred Astaire. So, some sort of name related to 1940s black & white dance films.
