So I don’t even have the new puppy yet, but I’m already working up a list of names. As I blogged before, Princess Bumbles was named after the abominable snowman from “Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.” In the show Yukon Cornelius calls the snowman Bumbles, hence I named my white little Westie Princess Bumbles. I think it would be fun to name the next puppy after a character from one of the Rankin Bass Christmas specials, but it’s been so long since I’ve seen a lot of them. So I need your help, if you remember them and any memorable characters from them, please leave me a comment. I might consider deviating and naming him or her from any holiday special if I can find a name I really like.

Here is a list of names I’ve thought up so far and some of my thoughts . . . .

Boy Names:
Winter – would work best if I got another Westie
Kringles – My favorite so far
Hermey – Mmmm, makes me think of dentists
Yukon – Do I want to name my dog Yukon?
Nester – Makes me sad, his mother died
Jack – A bit plain, but has possibilities
Snip – Kinda fun
Firebolt – Odd
Moonracer – Again, a bit odd
Rudloph, Frosty and Santa – Um, don’t think so.
Heatmiser and Snowmiser – No 🙂

Additions:
Ebby or Ebaneezer – From Christmas Carol
Fezzy or Fezziwink – From Chrismas Carol

Girl Names:
Crystal – Again would work best for a Westie
Tanta – A personal favorite so far
Necile – Another personal favorite
Shiagra – A bit exotic, better for a cat
Jessica – A bit odd for a dog, but nice
Clarice – Ack, reminds me of “Silence of the Lambs!”
