Here's a group of names, some of them you will recognize from movies, books, or celebrities. Look for the animals in all of us or the birds that frequent our backyard bird feeders.
Sometimes, things just strike you as perfect. Wonka? Maybe you have a chocolate colored puppy that needs a name.
Does the name Wild Thing remind you of a favorite children's book, or a Rock-n-Roll hit from the 1960s.'
Things always seem to have more than one meaning, but the one that means the most to you is going to be the most personalized dog name. Woodstock? A little yellow bird or a famous rock concert?

If you purchased a puppy that requires a registered dog name, why not pick something with a little flare, even if that amazing puppy of yours is not going to be a star in the show ring.
The puppy's registered name doesn't need to be the same as her call name, but it could be related. For example your sweet little puppy might be registered as "wish upon a star, and her call name could be Starr.
A registered name such as Wots up Doc could translate to Bugs.
Walk on the Wild Side, name her Walker
Wing and a Prayer, maybe Angel as a call name?

Wish upon a star, her call name could be Starr
