How to use the dog name generator
The dog name generator works in one tap — press Spin and a list of dog names appears instantly. Copy the ones you like, and use the size and theme filters to narrow down to small-dog names, viking names, or boy and girl picks.
Try your shortlist out loud before deciding: a good dog name is easy to call across a park and does not rhyme with commands like sit or stay. Two syllables tend to land best, and it is fine to test a couple for a few days to see what your pup answers to.
