My Narrowed Down Name Choices

[SkellysBoxer]

So I've narrowed it down to 4 possible names and welcome any other suggestions. I'm going for the unique approach (which I know is hard considering Boxers are one of the most famous dogs) but I've polled the picks and here are the explanations:

Leila - Muhammad Ali's Daughter's Name (The only undefeated female BOXER in the world)

Sahara - The fawn color resembles the sandy color of the Sahara Desert

Bella - I know Boxers are of German descent but beautiful in German is "Schön" (Pronounced "Shern") and that doesn't really have a feminine sound.

Mya - no significance, just like the name

There are a lot of Laila's and Bella's on here. Personally, I like Sahara, but Mya is cute too.

I agree with Sugarcain I like Sahara a lot I think it's a perfect pick for a fawn boxer.

I like Mya for My Young Angel that could be her registered name.

I know there are lot of Laila,s here, but some spell it different....we went the boxer route and have Laila, for Laila Ali and Frazier, for Joe Frazier...good luck

I'm biased because one reason I picked the name Bella for my girl was because it was different. Then I saw it everywhere! How are you pronouncing Mya? mIa with a long i sound or mEa with a long e sound? I had a Shar Pei named Maya and always loved the name. My choice would be Sahara. It's very descriptive and also different.

I did pick Bella in the poll and I love it but after reading and thinking about Sahara I am undecided now wich of those two I like best!

Thanks for voting and all the great responses so far! I figured Laila lost it's originality at this point, but it's so fitting! The breeders told me that she's the runt but doesn't take any crap from the other siblings. She waits for all the other pups to go to sleep and she lays on top of the others so that she's the first to get picked up and get all the attention.

Also just found out someone is naming another girl from the same litter Bella, so that too has lost it's originality. That narrows it down to Sahara and Mya (pronounced "My-Ya"). I think I'm going to hold off until I get her to see which suits her better.

I think I'm going to hold off until I get her to see which suits her better.

I think that that sounds like the best idea. I personally like Sahara the best. But Mya sounds really cute as well.

I like Sahara as it is different and I have never heard of another dog called that. Mya would be my second choice for the same reasons as above.
