Wilson seems to be a popular name - it's the name of the search dog being searched for in the Colombian Amazon:

I would go for Mullarkey not a lot of dogs about with that name.

I have just got a German shepherd puppy named by our granddaughter .

She is a bit confused at the moment as my wife keeps calling her Nailer. Or Neighler. Or Nalan.

Her name is Nala.  Meaning princess or lioness so has not a clue who the wife is talking to.

Don't call it Forecast at any cost.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

I can remember asking him about it years later when I realized that it wasn't a good name and he said that it was named after a dog in WW2, completely forgot about it until now
