I was walking to get the mail yesterday and my neighbor was out in the yard with his two puppies.  Out of curiosity they wandered into the street and approached me.  The owner yelled, "Joker!  Psycho!  Get back over here!"

You should probably go with one of those.

A dog breeder told me to avoid dog names with the "O" sound as puppies can confuse the name with "No". Which sucks, because "Yost" is an awesome name for a dog.

Yost

When my dog is playing fetch (she is 7 months old, so we are still working on that...) I get to yell 'Hurry up Yost' when he is bringing it back to me.

My friend has a cat named Steve. Funniest name for a pet I have ever heard....STEEEVVVEEEE COME HERE you would think it was a sibling, not an animal. And it is super fat which somehow makes it funnier

I would go with something from the Land Down Under like:

Ace (means "excellent")

Boomer (a large kangaroo)

Butcher (not what you think - its a glass of beer)

Coldie (a beer)

Dingo

Etc. You get the idea.

Named one of my beagles Henne.  Also have had names of Desmond, Bo, Blue, and Mick(Micky Mantle).  My next dog will be a bulldog and his name will be Butkus.

I like Manningham as his official name.  You will call him whatever nickname fits his personalilty, so it could be manni, hammi, hambone solo or something completely unexpected.  Give him a dignified official name.  Manningham is very dignified.

One of my aero professors told us she had a professor friend at VaTech whose father-in-law was the dean of engineering, and they had a bit of a friendly rivalry.

When the dean got a dog, he named it Vector.

Not to be outdone, the prof gets a dog and proudly names him Matrix.

Some time later, the dean gets another dog, and names it Tensor.
