hmmm... ok, so I suppose any name that involves around foodie is not good. But for a pet, it might be sufficient(since she will be at home and not be formerly introduced to public).. mostly it will be me, my friends, my family, and DH. Now, if she were to be a show dog(she isn't), its a whole different matter- I might get SHOT!!

How about Kimiko ??? she has a very cute nose and those little eyes.................

I will go through a naming dictionary and will come up with something more decent. and yes, perhaps you are right about Mochi as it is Japanese dessert(this was my DH's fav name). It wont be appropriate for Korean maltese... Koreans and Japanese have a long history(which I wont get into), but most of them, quite unpleasant....

Apparently we are having an "Asian Invasion" here on SM and I'm feeling a little left out...Candice is Korean, Marissa is Korean and Kholee's mom is Korean. Am I the lone half-breed here?!! LOL. ( I am half-Japanese. ) I want to be Korean too!!!

When I was getting a maltese, I actually also toyed with the name Mochi as well. I thought it was cute and since, Mochi is white...

I like the suggested name of Minji. Very cute. Well, whatever you choose Candace, I am sure it will be paw-sitively perfect for your new baby. So excited for you. Cant wait for the pictures!

I'm curious why you chose Korea too? I know there are a ton of malts over there; they are super popular! Unfortunatley they are also the # 1 abondoned dog over there too

If I had known customs would allow it, I would have looked into getting a rescue from Korea myself, maybe even will in a year or more, so its good to know I cant wait to see pics of your little girl! Congratulations!

It's so exciting for a new puppy! I hope Ein transitions well - you're so brave! I could never do teenage puppyhood + young puppy months the same time!

Kaylla and Marissa! wow, didn't know we had fellow Koreans in this forum... I am Korean too. Nice to meet you guys!

I do lament the fact that maltese are #1 abandoned dogs in Korea. Mostly stemming from people that does not want to deal with barking(as most are apartment dwellers in high rise buildings), or ones who jumped on a cute little white dog at the store on an impulse(In asia, people love cute everything, and this sadly includes live animals too) without knowing that yes, these cute animals are alive.. and they pee, poop, and yes, BARK.

we do have rescued animal from shelter(a tuxedo cat, that we keep at our office at work... as we spend more time at work than home sometimes). A previous cat(now in heaven) was also a sheltie as well.

I am very happy that Ein is going to get a little sister to play with, and double the furry love on my end for me.. I am very very happy to share the news with awesome people in this forum that generously taught me everything I know. I am passing on that knowledge to my friends and family as well.


Elsa(real second wife to Ein???? I like the name Elsa! I didnt even know that he was ever divorced??), sounds really cute. But the second Maltese will be his little sister and not a mate though(she will be spayed). Does Einstein have a little sister?? hmm.. something I should google about!!

[babycake7]

I couldn't help but google Korean baby names and found the "Hana"...meaning flower or favorite. I think its a pretty name for a little malt so I am throwing it out there as a suggestion.

[eiksaa]

Aww, I love Hana. Mind if I steal that idea for my giant Google doc of doggie names?

Feel free! I love the name too. My friend's daughter is named Hana...though my friend is half-Japanese, not Korean. Also, the first maltese I ever came to know as a child, and the whole reason I fell in love with the breed, was a Maltese named Hana that belonged to a family friend who was a florist. Hana meaning "flower" in Korean. She was a florist...so it all makes sense...except the family friend was Japanese not Korean. So now I need to google and see if Hana also means flower in Japanese as well as in Korean. Sort of a interesting little trail of breadcrumbs to follow...hmmm..

OOo... Kimi sounds cute! This little girl Maltese definitely seem more sassy, so I am thinking more sassy names... Kimi(short for Kimiko?), or how about cuchi? Argh.. I need that name dictionary. I am on it, tonight!

Asian invasion!!! maybe Korean invasion? I am just kidding!!! I have friends from all over the spectrum from A-Z M7 My best friend was indonesian, and my roomates were all American back in college...and I married Chinese dude, so our kids will be half Korean. And the funny thing is we both love SUSHI. Minji is really really pretty Korean name(actually I was thinking of naming our daughter(if we have daughter) Minji. Once we decide for sure that we wont use that name for our human babies, I will 'seriously' consider that name.. It is such a pretty name!
