Puppy Names

Nibs with the pups
Since the possibility of us getting a Cardigan puppy in a few months grows more and more likely, we've been kicking around names and we've failed to find one we really like.

My other two corgis are named Bernie and Basil respectively.  I wanted to find a Welsh "B" name for the boy but couldn't find anything.  We thought about other names like Leto, Newton, Liam but nothing felt right.  I know it seems silly to name a puppy before he comes home but it worked out with our other two and who am I to break tradition?

So here are some male "B" names that I like, take a vote for your favorite:

Bramble
Bob
Boswell
Bourbon
Baron
Beacon
Belmont
Barnaby
Boris
Bullet
Bacon
Bolero
Benson
Bilbo

Ringo really doesn't like Bramble even though that is my favorite.  Ultimately I know it'll come down to my decision but I've been hoping we can come to a consensus like we did on the last two.

  2. Ringo suggested Bilbo and I kinda like it. It's nerdy and cute.

  3. I like Barnaby, but it's long, and wouldn't like Barney as a nickname, plus it's too close to Bernie.
