+Dave Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Sheila just bought me a Belgian Malinois. I always wanted one but hadn't mentioned it for years. Well out of the blue she bought this little guy. Well I can't think of a name for him. I name my dogs after famous military men. My big dog I have now is Bull after ADM William F. "Bull" Halsey. My dachshund is named Rommel. (It is a German dog and dammit it will have a German name!) I have no idea who to name this little guy after. He is only been in the house 2 hours and is giving the other 2 dogs hell. Any ideas folks? Sorry naming him asshole after me is not an option.
+Fubar512 Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Actually....taking a que from Patton, and being that he's from that area, how about "William", as in William the Conquerer?
+allenjb42 Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 The only famous Belgian I know is Hercule Poirot, and he's fictional!
Derk Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) Suske, a famous Belgian cartoon hero, or Kuifje, another very famous cartoon character. Jefke is another good Begian name, as is Gaston !!! Maybe you should ask Sony for a real Belgian military hero. There are several of them from the time of the Romans, but they have very long single names, hardly anything a dog will listen to........ Good luck, have fun (tomorrow we're going to have our second Newfoundlander, a puppy named Lilly) Hou doe, Derk Edited July 9, 2009 by Derk
Jimbib Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 An idea has just popped into my mind after watching a documentary today.... Seeing as he's a Belgian, Godfrey of Bouillon in Belgium was a leader of the First Crusade and the Knights Template group, not a bad way to go down in history. Not the most recent of famous military men but maybe a thought. (Probably a bad one at that.)
+Dave Posted July 10, 2009 Author Posted July 10, 2009 I named him Chappie. After Gen Daniel "Chappie" James.
+Typhoid Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 I've always wanted to name a dog "dammit" so I could say - "come here, dammit" the rest of the household wouldn't let me.......
+JediMaster Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Since he was Belgian, you could've named him Smurf!
+ST0RM Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Nice puppy Dave. Sheila is spoiling you again. Enjoy the housebreaking.
