Thank you all for playing.
The names were:
Ozzie- Mom/Grandma
Saylor-Jackie
Angusor Achilles- Andrew
Harley or Buddy- Amy
Popcorn-Mel
T-Bone- From the breeder
Julie and I debated about the merits of each name.
As much as the name Popcorn might be appropriate for a high energy animal, but I could not picture myself calling a dog by that name and still keep my man card.
I liked Harley, but I have a friend who calls his dog that. I also call Andrew and Titus, Buddy sometimes, I don't know exactly why.
Angus is what you call beef. Achilles might have been a great warrior, but his name implies weak ankle muscles today.
The dog didn't really respond to Saylor.
The dog did respond to T-bone, but we wouldn't want him to be confused with steak.
So, the winner for two very good reasons is Ozzie.
One, because of his lineage, Oz- Australia and two, while we were out in the yard today, I found him playing with a dead bird, so Ozzie ( as in Osbourne) it is.
Thank you all again for playing along.
BTW: The dog is learning "Come" "Sit" and "Fetch".
He is a very quick study and gets along well with Titus and sometimes Zoe.

Ozzie is a fine name..
Now, I didn't have a chance to play and every name I could come up with sounded goofy.
Alan -- for Alan Shepherd
Sam for Sam Shepherd, but Amy's dog is Sammy - so we wouldn't want another.
Oreo for the obvious - but who wants an Oreo II
Well, that was mine
