rock star puppy.

yesterday i chased puppy around for a good 20 mins trying to get the perfect polaroid of him. no luck and lots of wasted film. he doesn't like to sit still. (right now i'm watching him run around in circles in the corner for no apparent reason. he's such a little weirdie.)

we're still searching for the perfect name for him as well. we really did like the name mr. feeny (and the man, of course. who didn't love feeny?) but the more we get to know our little guy, the more "mr. feeny" just doesn't seem to fit him. at all. so... here we are with a puppy called puppy. (or pups mcgumps as i like to refer to him.)

so with that in mind, here's some of the names we've thrown around:
cash, inspired by johnny cash (and as i lay dying.)
bennie, inspired by bennie and the jets.
we've also talked about bowie and hendrix...

(and please, enjoy all of the incredible music to start your wednesday..)

if it's this hard to name a puppy, i can't even imagine naming my child!
any suggestions or votes?

Bennie or Hendrix! Love! So cute! Having a pup is the best. I get sooo much joy from just starting at our little guy. It never gets old :)

I have to admit, I do know a family who never decided on a puppy name and still call their pup "puppy."

I vote for Cash. :)

Ha ! He is SO cute ! I die !
I love Bennie, such a cute name !
My mom and I named my cat (now my parents') Simone. It felt weird at first but now we love it & think it suits her perfectly. Quirky, a little old school (Simone is usually a 65-70 year old woman in France) but oh so funny for a playful kitty like her ;)

Bisous !

Adorable! Ok, so this may be a little weird, but I really like human names for dogs. For example, we're gearing up to get a new french bulldog puppy at the end of this year, and I'm planning to name him Robert. Haha.

I like Bennie. If he loves Katy Perry so much, what about Perry?

He is seriously the cutest pup ever.
