What Does Your Doodle's Name Mean?
I am also posting this in the name group, but thought I would post it here too... so everyone could participate.
We have talked about why we named our dogs what we did, but I thought it would be fun to post the actual meaning of our doodle's names. I chose Darwin before I found out what his name meant, but found out later that it means " a dear friend" So cute!

We named our little reddish/apricot doodle puppy "Sedona" because her color reminded us of the beautiful rock formations in and around Sedona, Arizona. As far as I can tell, the name has no meaning in and of itself. The town was named after the wife of T.C. Schnebly, one of the area's early residents. When residents of this small settlement complained to T.C. about slow and infrequent mail service, he immediately filed an application for the establishment of a post office. T.C. suggested calling the post office Schnebly Station, then Red Rock Crossing and even Oak Creek Station; however, those names were not accepted by the government because they were too long to fit on a cancellation stamp. T.C.'s brother suggested naming the community after Sedona - and the rest is history... Glad it worked that way, as I can't see calling my beautiful little puppy "Schnebly"!!!

Tucker means "someone who folds cloth." Boy did I pick the wrong name. Tucker unfolds anything he gets a hold of!

Shayna means beautiful in Hebrew and she really is...I hoped it wouldn't go to her head, but it has...And my new little one is named Loki, god of mischief,(I ignored the sex, knowing she would get spayed and be neither boy or girl LOL), and I am always thinking of changing that name because I think I jinxed myself with that name as I never had a dog who does such mischief!!!.....but she is cute and wins my heart when she is done and makes me smile...so what can I say?

I had to look it up (because I named Callie in a panic - the shelter wouldn't let us leave without a name!) and its source is kallos, a Greek name meaning "Lovely." I couldn't agree more. My sweet little baby is lovely (except when she eats her own barf. Blech)
Bixby doesn't seem to have a name meaning.

Penny eats the cat's barf, if we don't catch her in time.
