Dog is a good name.

I may have been watching The Walking Dead recently. That’s my inspiration for the name.

Do you have a go to name in mind?

I had this problem with my dog, but I always had a backup name if all else fails, and honestly I'm so glad I stuck with that one.

However I will always vote for Wilson.

There is nothing more amazing than seeing a man standing in a field frantically shouting and calling out for "Wilson!"

Whatever you choose it’s got to pass the park test. Are you prepared to scream it at the top of your lungs across a crowded park?

In our experience pets almost name themselves. The only pet I had a name for before we got him was the tortoise and to be honest he hates it and has asked me to change it.

Cushion - short for Cushionhumper - great if you get talking to an attractive lady in the park who says awwww cushion is a lovely unusual name how did you come up with that - she will find it hilarious and want to have sex with you !! Definitely.. or she will spray you with something and run… sometimes hard to tell!!

Advice from dog behaviourists is to pick a name with no more than 2 syllables and ideally ends in an “eeee” sound when you shout it. So Rocky, Brodie, Lucky. However some of the cooler ones I’ve met recently are Hank, Bronson, Rambo lol

Friends used names for their dogs that start same letter as their surname and it works quite well.

Guess they’d thought out the ‘going to the vet’ shout

"Dogs should have human names

I totally agree with the above

Being a cocker spaniel surely it has to be a name beginning with C or S..

Chris/Clive/Colin the Cocker

Sam/Steve/Scott the Spaniel

Of course there’s always (as has been said already), Deefa/Defur/Defor the dog

If it will be used as a working dog then a one syllable name works best.
