Shooting related name for new puppy.

NOLAEMT · Jan 3, 2011

My wife and I are looking to adopt a chocolate lab puppy, and we're having difficulty coming up with names for her.

SO...

Does anyone have any good shooting or gun related names for a female dog?

I've come up with Benelli, but I'm not sold ( at least it would give me leverage to convince my wife I need a new shotgun, as I don't own a Benelli)

my hunting lab (RIP buddy) came from a place called Tomahawk kennels .. his registered name was Tomahawk's Gun Thunder .. aka Thunder .. thought about that often when I was shooting ..

Love the name BROWNing for a chocolate lab .. or trigger

Bullseye. Speedsteel. CAS (cowboy action shooting). If he/she is really lazy - benchrest.

My sister-in-law used to have a dog named Bullet, so named because they found it in such rough shape that they almost put it down.

Will_G · Jan 3, 2011

I've heard of dogs named "Bowser" - which makes me think of "Mauser"!

Winnie, short for Lady Winchester
Brownie, short for browning or Browning
LadySmith
Big Bertha

ask Herr Krupp
Nadine (FMJ)
Frizzen (peope will thing you mean her frizzy hair)

You can't name a dog Dakota unless he/she lives in a jeep in Crested Butte CO.

How about "Annie". You can know it's about Ms. Oakly, others will assume you like musicals.

lokpyrite · Jan 3, 2011

heck, name it Shooter if it's a male.

Davey Wavey · Jan 3, 2011

How about simply Shooter?

Blargh, someone beat me to it.

Steve32 · Jan 3, 2011

Bullet sounds good for a greyhound - or for any fast running dog.

nyresq · Jan 3, 2011

for a chocolate lab I cant think of anything better then Browning!!

LawScholar · Jan 3, 2011

Browning/Brownie does seem pretty perfect.

Plus you can yell 'John Moses!' when the puppy eats your shoes.

A Lab? Easy one. "Dum Dum"

danprkr · Jan 3, 2011

I don't care what you name it, I just want to see pictures of the new puppy.

bsam4me · Jan 3, 2011

Once had a Lab named Dash..seemed a good fit. Buddy has a Brittany named "Gage".... very fitting also.

Also... lab mix named "Hawkeye"

But I'd like to see some pics too

PT1911 · Jan 3, 2011
