    So, now that Chloe is pregnant, we’re going to need a kennel name of our own.

    I have a contender, but am open to suggestions and I know how much you all like coming up with names, LOL.
    Just to give you something to work with, my dogs (that we’ve had since pups) were Scully, Mulder, and now Chloe. My kids names are Jamie Rachel and Sarah Nicole.

    Go!

    Registered names of parents? Sometimes it's nice to incorporate them. I'm still a little miffed we didn't go with the ESS breeder who had a Gone With the Wind theme, I had a couple of names ready that I really liked. Do either of the names lend themselves to a theme?

    ETA: Oh, sorry, I misread. Kennel name, not puppy names.

    Kennel name - hum.

    You could go with JaSar Labradors or RaNic Labradors. Just working with your kids names.

    How about working with something you like or your location?

    How about something like Jump Start Labs. Makes me think of performance dogs, which yours are. And the J and the S work for your kids.

    With the recent passing (hugs again!) of Mulder, and him being Chloe's father, I suggest doing something of an ode to Mulder in your kennel name.


    Paranormal sci fi alien labs might turn some people off...


    Maybe since Mulder was a profiler on X Files it could be Profile Labradors. Special to you and will mark your kennel's origin and carry on his legacy, but general enough to the public for it to mean something else, like the perfect profile of the Labrador Retriever.


    Maybe something unique to you about Mulder?



    Exciting stuff! Good luck!!

    This is tough. Most kennel names sound like housing communities or retirement villages to me!

    I like the idea of going with a performance name. Like, if a kennel's dogs turn out hunting dogs, they might use Duck Landing Labs (totally made that up so if it's a real kennel name, sorry!). I also like using a name that brings you back around to your first dog.

    Jaranic? Gets all the people in, and incorporates some of the good ideas above. I will say that long kennel names can be limiting when naming pups.

    Another idea is, since YOU are the breeder, is to just use your own name parts. Your name starts with "A," so that gets you high on an alphabetic listing of kennel names, as on the club page.
