1,000 Puppy Names for Girls

by Anna Lengacher

Your puppy’s name. It’s how you’ll address your puppy in public. It’s also what friends, family, and strangers alike will call your charming fur-ball.
You’ll use the name during training sessions, favorite outings, and when just hanging around home.

Choosing the perfect puppy name is no small feat. Should you choose the name based on meaning or simply by how it sounds? Perhaps the number of syllables should be considered, or what letter the name begins with.

In today’s blog post, we’ll share top tips on what to consider when choosing a name for your little girl dog. In addition, you’ll discover 1000 puppy names to get your mind rolling.

How to Choose Puppy Names for Girls

• Choose a name with hard consonants. Think Ginger in place of Aria. It’ll be easy to remember, plus your pup will be quick to recognize it.
• Choose one or two syllables. By keeping your dog’s name to just a few syllables, it will be easier for your puppy to recognize and remember her name. Plus, you’ll be using the name a lot so something that flows easily and quickly off your tongue is preferred. Imagine training your dog and always calling out Eleonora or Antoinette. Not only are these names harder for your pup to distinguish, they are also more cumbersome on the tongue. Eleonora could be substituted with Elly, or Antoinette replaced with Anett.
• Avoid age sensitive names. Sure, your little girl may be arriving home as just a pup. Yet unless you’ve chosen a tiny dog breed, that little pup will not always be small. So while names such as Peewee, Bitty, Minnie, or Munchkin may seem like a perfect title for a wee little pup, consider names that will be equally appropriate when your pup reaches adult status.
• Avoid names that sound like a command. If it rhymes with stay, sit, down, fetch, or any other command you’ll be teaching your dog, avoid it. For example, Fay rhymes with stay. Bit rhymes with sit. Brown rhymes with down. So to keep things clear between you and Fido, consider these names as non-options.
• Avoid names that rhyme with family names. Like the previous point, it’s likely your fur-ball will soon be confused if her name rhymes with or sounds similar to your sister’s name. Look for a unique female dog name that won’t be easily confused with household names and words.
• Practice saying the name. It’s likely you will be using your dog’s name a lot. Before settling on a specific name, practice repeating it around your home. Call it out from the back door. Pretend your talking to your puppy. Let the name roll from your tongue. Make sure the name is easy to say and rolls quickly from your tongue.
• Compile a list of favorite names. No need to stress out over finding a single name all in one sitting. Start a running list of names you like. Perhaps you hear a name at the grocery store or you find a favorite name online. Great. Add it to your list of favorites. After you’ve compiled a small collection of names, go back over just your list and start pruning. If you’re making the decision as a family, discuss together which names to keep and which names to remove from the list. Do this in several different sittings until eventually you are down to just one name.

Spark Your Imagination

When choosing a name for your puppy, there’s a plethora of triggers to spark your imagination.

While you may prefer to choose a name before ever meeting your puppy, you might also wait to select a name until after your pup arrives home. Whether you are purchasing a puppy in Los Angeles or adopting a puppy in Indiana, by first spending time with your puppy, you can choose a name based on your dog’s personality.

For example, if your puppy enjoys the center of attention, you might name her Diva. Or if your puppy is all about hugs and kisses and lots of affection, perhaps Cuddles would serve her well. If your dog adores running, Lightning could be a perfect fit.

If you are feeling nostalgic, consider naming your puppy something from your childhood. Perhaps it’s the street name where you grew up or your favorite cartoon character. Or you might find name inspiration from your childhood best friend, a favorite teacher from school, a celebrated book series, an author, or your own hometown.

If appearance is a big deal to you, you could always give your puppy a name based on her looks. If she is brown, you might call her Chocolate, Brownie, Coffee, or Cocoa. A white dog might enjoy names like Snow, Snowflake, Snow White, or Sugar. Markings is another thing to consider. If your dog has four white legs, Socks could fit the bill. Or if spots are a thing, Freckles could be a favorite name too.

While lots of folks give their dogs human names, this isn’t always the case. There are always food related names such as Ginger, Olive, Maple, Basil and Coconut. Or if you enjoy travel, you might draw inspiration from international cities including Sydney, Bali, Rio, Clevelend, and Florence. If you are a plant lover, perhaps names like Lily, Clover, Peanut, Daisy, or Spearmint will keep you smiling. And if sports is your jam, why not name your little pup after a favorite sports team? Whatever you choose, just be sure the name is easy and fun to say.

Choose How Many Names

People traditionally have three names: a first, middle, and last name. For your dog, the options are limitless. You might stick with a single first name, or opt for a name including one or two middle names. Is last name a big deal to you?

If you’re choosing multiple names, what about those initials? How are they looking or are they spelling anything crazy? While your dog’s peers will not be making fun of her name or initials, you’ll still want to steer clear of anything derogatory towards your pup.

And now for those lists of names. Go slow, start your own list of favorites, and enjoy finding a perfect name for your new girl dog.
