Help name my soon to be dog

We named our shepherd NORA, it's closer to No but she knows the difference.

It means "little honorable one" and is a key character in Dean Koontz's "Watchers"
which sold me right away because it's one of my favorite books and is centered around a
genetically engineered 'human intelligence' dog.

We had tonns of names chosen when we went out to get our pup but didn't have a name for her until a week after we got her, she was just 'baby' or 'pups' until we got to know her personality a bit, I seriously recommend choosing afterwards.

That said, pick something that you identify with and love.

Here are some we had picked out
June -after my grandmother short for Junebug
Bella - Twilight ruined that for us
Becca
Ana - Means beautiful
Atka - Guardian spirit
Hope - Self explanatory
 
Names

One idea is to look back in her pedigree and see whether you like one of her Grandmother's names......or go back even farther on either side.

We currently have a "Toby" and a "Sage" both Tri Colour English Setters.


Hope she finds lots of birds for you.
 
Thanks for all the advice boys!

I've paid my deposit and will be getting her in the fall! She'll be a Springville Springer.

I owned a Springville springer 20 years ago... she was out of Sampson and Patches... great little dog... and then; Weird thing happened with her... she got pecked by a big wounded mallard drake... she made the retrieve but the bird was twisted around and pecked her face the whole way back. She quit retrieving for the day... the next time out and every single time after, she would make two perfect retrieves and then quit cold... the bird that pecked her was the third retrieve of the day (don't know if she knew that or not, but she sure seemed to)... anyway, I tried everything to try and cure the problem, but she was eventually retired to "family pet" status. Her name, by the way, was "Shellcase" on her papers... but she was "Casey" to the kids.
 
when I was a kid I had a Springer Spaniel named Mickey.
I have 3 dogs now:
Rottie - Otto
Boxer - Tyson
American Bull Dog / Pit Bull - lil Willy
all boys, though!
maybe call her Suzy, nice name for a nice gal.
