I understand the cranky mood for whatever reason. It has been
a long grumpy summer here for several reasons.
Lea dog was a female Leo. Her birthdate was approved by my
astrologer dad so that fit. Georgia was chosen after hearing Boz
Skaggs sing the song of that name while I was in the grocery.
Georgia made me think of the red soil of Georgia and she is kind
of a big red gal. Ginger dd came up with. We wanted a 'G' name
to go with Georgia so we could call them the G or golden girls. Helped
that Ginger on the group here is a pretty neato gal and so the name
had a very positive feel to me. Ginger and Georgia took over a
week to name. Just took a bit to feel right.
DH names cats mostly. Personality traits seem to be his choice.
Friends have a dog named Cowgirl. Kids picked that one. ; )
I think sometimes it just takes time to get a feel for a pet
before you can name it. I'll look forward to hearing what
you choose for that cute lab.

My parents' cat was named as a literary reference - she met the
description of Dinah in "Alice in Wonderland"

My first two cats were like their mother (Fun Kuo) & uncle (Siu Mai)
named after Chinese food. I knew I would call my first cat "Ow Yuk"
after finding it so amusing on a dim sum menu (little prawn & pork
steamed meatballs/dumplings) but I also had his little sister who was a
very black tortoiseshell so she was Blackbean.

Of our current cats, the first was named by the boys when they found him
(Smokey as he is grey) and the other two had names when we got them,
oddly enough again literary references: Malicia (more usually called
Mally or "Twitty Kitty") and Rock (Rocky aka "Fridge Magnet")

Oh, and my daughter's bearded dragon is called Dexter - another book
(and TV) tie in.

Dunno if that helps, but it worked/works for us.

Hope the pain returns to bearability for you and have lots of fun with
your new pup.

Whatever you choose - be sure to stick your head out the door and yell it.
Some names just simply don't call well. Avoid names such as
'Effenphiesterfoid' and 'Dammit'. Polly
