I see that the late Ted Kennedy was consulted.

Our half Chihuaua/half Jack Russell Terrier is named Apollo Kagogi (Kagogi is Hangul (Korean) for dog meat) ______(our last name).
I had a beagle named: “Little Miss Beagle Bailey” and we also had a boxer named “Buster Douglas.”
I dated a girl once who had a dog named “Fart.”
I was thinking of going down to the Humane Society and adopting the furriest dog they had and naming it “Jimmie the Blogger.”
But then it would probably just steal neighbor dog’s food and leave little “poo-poo excerpts” on other people’s lawns.
Two names in one of the comments were nicely litereary: Walter Cronkat and Nathaniel Pawthorne.
One syllable names are too short as the dog could easily confuse its name with other vital commands (i.e. "sit", "down", "out", "walk"). Two syllable names are perfect for a dog, especially when the two syllables are not normally used together in normal conversation (i.e. Rover, Dixie, Pongo) as otherwise the dog could get confused.
Give your dog a simple two-syllable name and you will be rewarded with a lifetime of obedience and respect. (Note: This approach does not work with wives or children.)
We had a dog named Cody B. Underfoot and three generations of cats named Pete, Repete, and Three Pete. We also had a calf named Henry David TheRogue.
The animal looked a bit like a mongrel boarder collie...Wayne called him "Dog"!!
My pooch’s name is Reagan

...and everyone thought my idea to name our springer WalMart was weird!
My personal favorite was the name given her cat by my third grade teacher. She, never having had a cat before, named the stray “Benjamin,” “Ben” for short. When Ben threw a litter of 4 kittens, she promptly changed the name to “Ben-Her.”
my cat’s name: felis sphincterus. figureit out.
Our dog’s name is Brew, but we’ve given him so many nick names. Brewski, Bubbies, Flopsies, Flops, Bat Ears, Ricky Rodriguez, Flopsietown, Mr. Flopsie Flopsterton...
Most of the “flop” names originated from the way he runs. His head, ears and paws all seem to flop around.
When he’s bad he assumes nicknames that can not be repeated on FR.
Kitten Kaboodle.
Sir Edward von Bearington doesn’t sound so bad compared to that list.
Before y’all freak out, that’s what his papers say...as far as he knows, his name is Teddy.
Our other pooch is Rum Tug Tugger on his papers (our daughter named him...she really likes the musical Cats!)...but he answers to Rummy or Rum-dum.
We adopted our cat from animal control on the afternoon of her last day. Our daughter named her Grizabella (yes, again with the Cats theme), but she answers to “”kitty treats”. We call her Bella...sometimes she will come when we call that name... LOL
I think there are pictures of the furries on my profile page...
My husband and I had the most amazing daschund when we were first married whom we named Thunder but his full name was Thunderation Puppy Poop Underfoot. We also had a cat named Jelly Felicitous Lucifer Rasberry Rose. The cat we have now is Bob. ... so we devolved.
My all-time favorite for a “Munchkin” kitteh was Arnold Schortzenlegger.
