Don't ask me why it popped into my head, but what about Rembrandt?
Deefer
🙂
Lots of Spaniel owners on here - I'm thinking of getting one myself but might try a resuce centre first and see what they have before I go down the puppy route. A friend has one and it's so cute and my daughters blagging my head all the time plus it'll make a change from spiders and snakes lol.

Dave - it is cool name for all pets

I haven't got many good photos of him as he rarely stays still for long enough!
He makes an excellent trail mate though.
Ragley!
call it 'boobies'... there's nothing more satisfying that shouting "COME ON BOOBIES!!" in busy public spaces.

All dogs need a two syllable name for easy recall. Our cocker is Merlot, but he's not red, sadly.

Previous dog was called Fido 🙂
As with sheep dogs I reckon all names should be single syllable, not cute, clever or topical. A mate had Deefa. Deefa dog! Hmm. my brothers beagle was Bisto as in Ahhh Bisto when it farted.
Spaniels realy sgould have "country" names and most I know arer Sam

All the ones I meet in the park have lovely country names. Doesn't change that they live in town and don't get enough exercise though 🙂

I met a Jack Russel called Roger the other week
I'm with mattsccm, dogs should have a single syllable name, my dog when he came to us was called Louis, which I find after growing up with sheep dogs all my life too much for him, so generally he gets called
OY!
Beware of male English springer spaniels as I've found out to my cost they can have bad genetic defects with their front elbows! Mine has had to have both elbows reinforced with screws. The left hand elbow has now had to be done twice and the last cost was £1900!
Elbow dysplasia is the thing to watch out for!
I'm probably getting another dog to run as a pair for beating, but the next one will be a bitch!
Chlamydia
Pepper - yes, heard and read about genetic defects but we're getting him from an old trustworthy friend, there's 5 generation KC docs etc and the older ones are all still fighting fit........but I know this doesnt guarantee a full healthy life. I suppose with every dog/pet/animal theres alot of hoping nothing will 'go wrong' so its fingers crossed time.
Picking him up in an hour, still undecided on name!
Chlamydia.......too many syllables
Story behind the Chlamydia was that as second offspring was due SWMBO was constantly going on about names.
In frustration I said if it was a girl I thought Clamydia might be apt. Wasn't till a few days later I entered the abode of the dog. I still think she must have mentioned it to one of her friends!
For a parcel of barminess that is a springer you need a solid name, like Gerald.
FWIW I was always told to end a dog's name on a hard consonant with a max of two syllables, so that would rule out chlamydia.
I met a Jack Russel called Roger the other week
Better than Jack!
'Roger Russell' - got a ring to it.. 😆
Jim-Bob or Billy-Bob 😀
Ours is called Paddy or the 'padster'- box of frogs doesnt come into it!!!

If we had a dog as opposed to a bitch I'd call him Roscoe.
G'Way, it was on our shortlist along with Deefer, settled on Bitza after applying the 'shouting across the park' rule.
Any excuse to post pics of our two mentalists.

Most people think I'm a petrolhead with those dog's names, but I'm an art teacher whose surname is Paul (hence Pablo), and Stig was covered in mud and piss when we collected him, so appeared to be 'of the dump'.

Call him Cameron, after the PM. You could teach him to do tricks, like begging, tongue hanging out for little treats etc.
dogtanian 😉 (apologies if already said)
Ours is called Rossi.

Bracken, yes I know!!!! and Jazz.
Not Springers but working Cockers. Mentalists of the highest order if you pander to them. Endless fun and games though!
My borders (obviously not springers) are called Braid & Kobe, but they also answer to Girl (Braid) & boy (Kobe), they were both named by me as the 'walker' who has to shout at them in the park. God knows what my daughters would of called them given the choice, but that was nipped in the bud early on...
Think man 😉
Dog names should be single syllable but train it to the whistle and it doesn't really matter anyway. Unless you really mean business! My 2 know that if we're out and I use their names, that means trouble!
Got two here that go by the names of stan and ollie ,
Mine is called Tigger, named by my daughter cos he is always jumping around

My springer's called Floyd. Ace dog, some arsehole tried to drown him in a river as a pup, we found him and took him in. Was years before he's go near the water, but he's into it now, he does a fine belly flop.
Tigger rocks 😀
