I just had to post this, because I know you guys can help. My friend is getting a rehomed Tea Cup Toy Poodle - black. She wants to rename him something big and tough like "Killer" but not that. Something funny and cute. What do you think? Sorry, no prize is being offered, just a brain exercise.

Ummm...Mighty Mouse? Or Hercules, which I think is very funny for a wee dog like that.
Atlas, Spike or Thunder, too.

Thunder, Thor, Butkus (think Rocky), Ogre (my personal favourite), Zeus, Bruiser, Hooligan, Thug, Temblor, Goliath, Garg (short for Gargantua), Colossus, Mammoth...

I should probably stop. I have a habit of letting these things get out of hand. A friend asked for suggestions for names for our chemistry department hockey team. I sent him 35. :shuffle:

Bear! [Related: Kodiak, Grizzly... perhaps those last two are not the best for a black dog...]
Leo (as in lion, king of the jungle), Enforcer, Fortis, Arnold (Schwarzenegger), Hulk, Crusher

I always thought military ranks for small dogs were hilarious.

Colonel, Major, Gunny, Sergeant, Etc

Napolean Bone-a-day?

Although historically Napolean was of average height, so the whole being short was about something else...

Thank you all for the great input. I have sent them to her, although she has come up with a good one herself. . . Mr. T. Don't know what she'll pick.

Cute. You'll have to buy him a welcome gift...a gold collar with a gold tag. In the shape of a T of course!
