HISTORIC REVIEW
Humans have named their dogs with unique and cute names since dogs have been domesticated.
We know many dog names from Egyptian sources from thousands of years ago, like “The Brave One”, “Reliable” and others, describing the nature of a dog. Other names referred to the dog´s color, like “The Black One”.
THE RIGHT DOG NAME
WHAT TO CONSIDER
Searching for names for dogs is one of the first things new puppy owners will be doing.
If you are in the process of searching for cute dog names, several considerations should be made.
At first the dogs name should not sound similar to any command you will use.
A bad idea for instance would be to call your puppy “Sketch” and also use the command “fetch”.
The name should not be too long, just think of how often you will use it in the future!

Maybe you look for a very special and unique dog name – just browse one of the lists on this site – everything will be fine as long as it meets the “minimum requirements” mentioned above.
