After 2 years the hubby and I are ready to add to our family. We have decided that Hunter needs a sister. We are getting a female chocolate lab. We have racked our brains for a name for our new fur baby and can't agree on one. I want something to play off the chocolate coloring, but not the usual Coco, Hershey, etc. Hubby wants something that doesn't really sound like a dog name. The one thing we know for sure is the last part of her name will be Arabella. So we are looking to fill in the blank. The(kennel name) _______ Arabella. So please if you have any ideas at all PLEASE help us name our soon to be new baby girl!

Reese or Jenny(from the movie Forrest Gump)

Everyone should be "owned" by a Bulldog

How about "Sorrel"? It refers to a more reddish-brown color than chocolate, but has such a pretty ring when you put it in front of the kennel name.
I've got a male yellow lab I'm bringing home next Friday and trying to come up with names to choose from is not as easy as some think!! Good luck and enjoy your new family member!

Thanks wagginaround. Enjoy your new fur-baby. I hope you find a great name for your new "little" one.

Another idea was to maybe come up with a name that goes with the name Hunter. Any ideas anyone?

Did you want the name to go with Hunter as in the colors of green, the actual sport, or starting with the letter H?

Haley from the chocolate company Brown & Haley plays off the color of the pup, Haley & hunter goes well together, and it's an H name. Only thing is it doesn't fit with Arabella!

If it's off the color Like Hunter green, you could go with Kelli for Kelly green. Then the next dog could be Forest lol.....

If it's the sport type name you could name her Gunny, Remi {for Remington} Kimber, or Tikka {all firearms}

Cyan is also one of my favorite names {it means greenish blue}
Zara another fave! {twist on Sarah}
Siona is another fave of mine {it means the stars}

THANKS Hailey! That is a lot of good names to think about. Keep them coming if you think of any more. I knew I wanted something to "go" with Hunter, but never considered how many ways that could go. You have great ideas and I am considering more than one of your suggestions.

Got a call from the breeder, the pups are due in 12 days. We are so excited! As of now the following names are in consideration. Chelsea, Zara, Jenny, Camo, Godiva, Asherah, Jazzmin, Callie, or Dakota. We have a little while but want to give the breeder her name so she will know her name by the time we bring her home in early February. Thanks for all of the suggestions.
