Picking up springer spaniel pup tomorrow and we (wife and two teenage girls) cant agree on a name for him so any ideas greatly appreciated. Our list includes Calvin (as in calvin harris for eldest daughter), Beiber (as in justin Beiber for younger daughter), Fin, Luke, Jake....I just want some more ideas please
Currently 3 springers in our family - Thorn, Possum and Bridie.
Think Thorn is a great name for a springer.
And our Lab is called Jake so obviously I'd vote for that too. ๐
What colour is it? Male I presume? We have a 13 week liver and white female called cocoa! Good luck, it just like having a toddler all over again.........sleepless nights, wee and poo everywhere, teething.....but worth it, they are unbelievably cute!
Have fun!
Daniel
'Jerry'
For the love of God, not Bieber.
whatever you choose, imagine shouting it across a park.
Basil
Ours was called George.
As a Scottish family in England he was the only English one in the family so he was named after St George.
whatever you choose, imagine shouting it across a park.
Yeh I've two Springers, one is called Chubbs. You get interesting looks shouting "C'mon Chubbs" as joggers run by. ๐
Doesn't matter because by the end of the month it will be a swear word you'll be shouting at it ๐
Just don't call it Bracken or Bramble FFS
Nigel
My previous springers: Nickel & Copper
Current working field spaniels/cockers: Widget & Bracken....

Neil the Springer?
My Springer is Currently snoring with his head on my lap. As soon as I reach for the poo bags, he will transform into a jumping, barking, tail-wagging picture of excitement. Will be chasing the bike today so double the fun
Springers are ace.

I couple of suggestions:
Ian
Mavic
Felix/Tiddles
Kev
Not sure how my mind of working today...
Geraldine
"F***ing Come Here, You Little B*stard!"
Trips off the tongue quite nicely I think.

Dave the Dog.
Moss, Sage
rebound
Rebound ๐
Edit: Beaten to it
a few suggestions:
Toshiba
Formica
Argos
I have more if you need more to choose from!
I have to say I'm a sucker for 'human' dog names.
How about Daniel?
haaksman or swagger
Gerald?
N'boogie, end of thread
Everytime he jumps up at folks you can shout out accross the park "Get Down N'boogie"
Be interesting what reaction you get from folks.
Our springer is called Henry
It'd have to be Jerry for a Springer.
Neighbour's got a cocker spaniel called Jarvis. ๐
Billy.. got to be something simple and distinctive cos your going to be calling it a lot.. mad as a box of monkeys..
****t
My son was upset when I suggested this for our cocker pup last year...
... until mrs rkk01 explained that I had wanted to call him ****t ๐

Has to be said though - mrs rkk01 got her own way on child naming ๐
Geddin.
Kinda down the same lines as Mantastic - 'Geddin get out!'

The springers we've had have been called:
Ben
Sally
Casper
Max or Maxwell when he's naughty
Jack
We had a field spaniel called Tessie and a King Charles called Sam
The next spaniel we have will be called Flounder, and the wife is in agreement as it seems to suit spaniels so well.
The best name for a dog i've heard is Oi!
I had two springers a few years ago.. thier names:
Bangers and Mash
They were both mad as a proverbial bucket of frogs, but such HUGE fun.
I miss them..
Darcy ๐
A friend had a springer pup called 'Digger Duckrun' another had a boder terrier called Wellington - but that mangey runt should have been shot (the dog not the owner).
Deefa.
Had one a few years ago called Ben, absolutely brilliant, my parents 'stole' him from us in a tug-of-love dog thing! Now have a B&W bitch called Cara, who is fast asleep right now, but will do the same as Dancakes dog, when I get ready to go for a walk in a minute.
Springers are ace +1

What's your dog called.......
Askit
I met a collie the other day called "Martin".
+1deefer
Had forgotton that gag from when we were buying a dog.
Now it is usually called Oi, For **** Sake or Drop depending on whether it is running away, has run away or has come back with some road kill
Thanks for all your suggestions, daniel and jery were obvious ones we've got in the hat too. Already got a spanish water dog (I'll get photo posted one day, very 'beautiful') called lola which I kind of agreed on before realising I would have to shout her name loudly in public (so she gets called Lo alot). I do like Daniel but dont like the shortened version which he will obviously be called from time to time, Dan or Danny, same with Jerry
Liver and white dog. I know its going to be mad as a hatter but I've done a good job 'calming' Lola so hopefully some of her skills will rub off.......or they could encourage each other to be mental!! Either way I'm looking forward to it and will get pics posted.
Dont worry, Beiber off the list now. I'm liking Trevor or Colin and seen as I'm chief dog walker...!! N'boogie funny.
Thanks again.
