Name the Dane


For the past few months we have been on the great dane rescue list for a gentle giant. At the same time we let our intentions be known that we would consider a puppy if no rescue came forward. We did have some specifics, a female, brindle in color and if an adult – one that would not intimidate poor Chester the Jester, our extremely mild-mannered Airedale.
Well, no rescues have come forward and the only person we would ever consider a puppy from has just bred beautiful Casanova.
While we have much work to do – getting up to speed on puppy care, food, and training we also need to choose a name for our new bundle of joy.
And we could really use some help with a name befitting a 120 or so pound beautiful brindle girl. Your help would be appreciated.

  1. The breed is commonly referred to as the "Apollo of all breeds". -- So my pick is Apollo - then again there is always Scooby-Doo which would really be cute! MM

  2. I always love the name "Marmaduke" for a Dane. Even if it's cliche', I still love it! PS - have you checked out the dogs from http://magdrl.org --- they have SO MANY adoptable Danes of all colors and ages!
