Re: I'm going with Greek Myths next time..
I think it's hysterical that names came up today when my husband and I are considering re-naming our adopted Boxer. I've introduced myself and posted a few times, but have always spelled my Boxer's name the wrong way thinking no one would know the origin of her name!
I always say: Harrah, but her name is actually HERA!!!! She was named by the breeder and the people who had her didn't know how to properly pronounce the name. Too funny.
So the above post was so close to home!
I have to say though, after having her for over a month now, I don't think we'll be changing her name because I can't imagine her as anything else. Except we do call her "circle dog" because of her spastic circling every morning. :D
Hope you find a good name for your new baby!

Echo- An oread of Mt Helicon and attendant of Hera. She distracted Hera with her endless chatter so that Zeus was free to pursue his affairs with women and nymphs. Hera caught on to the ruse took her voice away leaving her only to repeat the words of others. She loved and was spurned by Narcissus and faded away till only her voice was left.
