I hate all the bickering over what to name Kali's pups. Therefore, to
bring peace and to do y'all a favor, *I'm* naming the puppies. TD, tell
your daughter that the following are the puppies' temporary names until
they go to their forever homes and the new owners can call them whatever
they wish.


Erkigsinek (Erky)
Hoss
Mirabelle (Mir)
Paco
Schweitzer
Splotch


If Gen's baby turns out to be a girl, the 6th puppy may be named
Olivier. If Gen's baby is a boy, the puppy should be named Sophie.

That's right. Gen gets induced today. I thought we knew it was a boy?

A multinational approach seems entirely appropriate for a litter
of unknown parentage. g

There's an obvious problem with using words in languages we
don't understand, right? If you can't tell a noun from a
verb in a particular language it's probably best to avoid it
completely - stay away from those embarrassing
embarrassments (like tattoos that you think say "Peace to
the planet" and actually say "I will lick your toes for a
dollar").

I'm not sure if these are permanent names yet or not, but so far the choices
that have been made a


Pingu for the Black pup

Tundra for the white pup

Storm for the darker colored brown pup with more gray in his coat.

So that leaves one of the darker colored brown pups, male, and the two light
brown & white spotted ones, both females.

Will, of course, forward your list of suggestions to my daughter though.
;-) I suggested aurora (beaurealis), for one of the light brown spotted
pups, but my daughter hates aurora. Someone she worked with named her kid
aurora.

Another of my suggestions was Thunder, for the other male, since she likes
Storm for the only other male dog.

As for the bickering, unless someone has *helpful* suggestions, I pretty
much ignore it, consider the source. If the organization that is sponsering
the pups would like us to choose what I'll refer to as
*cold/alaska/winter-type/eskimo* names for the pups, that's fine by us.
Most likely anyone who adopts a pup will change it's name anyway. The only
one that will definitely be a keeper, name-wise, is the black one if my
daugher keeps her. That's the way things are leaning and have been since
the start, that the black one was the *keeper*.

Were it up to me, I'd have named the two males *Simon & Garfunkle* ;-]

I don't think any breeder can ever make a dog's name permanent, unless they
put the name down on the registration papers and send them in. even then,
the new home will give the call name whatever they want. I know Tuck thinks
he's any one of about 2 dozen names and answers them all, including Hey
YOU!

Why not have fun with it?

I agree, that's why I don't understand the hostility from the shrew, I mean,
shore.

They are puppies, cute as little buttons, healthy, chubby, and well cared
for. That their names are a source of antagonism and hostility boggles my
mind.

And they shouldn't be. Don't argue with anyone, and call them what you wish.
And don't give anyone the opportunity to make grief over it.

Now see, it's pretty easy to say "I am a feminist." It's
easy to say "I care about the world." It's easy to call
yourself a good person. But when push comes to shove, you
resort to sexist insults and racist stereotypes. It's not
what you say, it's what you do.

'Tain't about the puppies, loser.
