I got the little packet to register Sophie with AKC, and I have no idea for any clever names to go with Sophie, I want it to play off her name kinda. Any suggestions?

Well, frequently the registered name incorporates the breeder or kennel name and perhaps the mother or fathers name. Example my dog Truffles is Bellarata's Truffles by Design. Where did Sophie come from? Do you have her pedigree?

You have to ask the breeder permission to use her kennel name, though. What are the registered names of Sophie's sire and dam? We can help you come up with something! |

I don't have her pedigree, but she's from desert hobby ranch, so the beginning of her name starts with DHR and her sire is Watch Mi Bounce and Dam is Mi Itzy Repossession

I forgot to mention that Truffles dad was named Delcost Marc by Design, hence the "by Design" in her name.

When I got my first maltese, I let my kids name her and had no concept of kennel names/akc names, whatever. So she became Dreams of Sunnydale illusen (Sunnydale for a Buffy reference, Illusen for a Neopets reference)
I thought 'oh who cares what her name is? Nobody will ever know but me' Flash forward 6 years later and Lucy's registered name has been printed more times than I could possible count since Marina uses her in junior showmanship. So just use that as a precautionary tale, LOL

Gustave is Sir Gustave of Marina. Not very creative, his real name + we live by the marina. But I like that it's simple but still sounds...appropriate.

Elena's registered name isn't really reflective of any previous names - it's the name of a Buffy episode, Prophecy Girl Lois is Ch Bellarata's I Want to Believe after the X-Files I think it can be said I like naming my dogs after media things, LOL

So if I wanna do a play off her parents could I do DHR Mi Princess Sophie since both her parents have 'Mi' in their names, or would I have to ask permission to use that part of the name? Any other suggestions for Soph's registered name?

I registered my first Maltese Winston as Laura's Birthday Surprise (because, well, he was my birthday surprise). I thought I was oh so clever because his initials were LBS...get it, pounds! oh hahahaha, I crack myself up.
I'm sure with all of the creative people on here, a good suggestion will come up. Just don't listen to anything I say, obviously.
