Hello NT, I'm hoping those of you with dogs can sympathize with my issue.

So I live in New York, and recently bought my first apartment over the summer. Now my girlfriend has moved in and we want to add a puppy to our family.

Well, we found our Corgi and he's going to come from Kansas in a month. He's the cutest little tri color Pembroke Welsh Corgi and I can't stare at his pictures for more than a few seconds without melting.

Here he is

So here is our issue.

I have picked the name Rocket for him. I think it fits him since Corgi's are fast, love to run and play and jet around. And then if down the line he gets a bit chunky and lazy, then the name becomes ironic!

So my girlfriend doesn't like the name, she prefers Rocky along with a few others, but says if I name him Rocket, she will only call him Rocky. =[

Other names we have talked about are Rocky, Dodger, Gambit, Jameo (pronounced Jay-mo).

This has been a tough process as finding a name we both are 100% on board with hasn't been easy.

Any suggestions on names? Does any of the names I mentioned scream at you when you look at his (adorable) face?

Any other fun, not so typical, non human names you guys can suggest for him?

Thanks!!

EDIT: We have settled on Rocket and Rocky as his nickhame.

 kudos to you if you get the reference
 
Lol'ed at Jameo, dont name it anything you have to break down and explain the spelling for.

If you want to name it Rocket, name it Rocket and tell your gf to grow up. Odds are that dog will outlast her presence in your life, so name it something you want to.

Throw a spin on it and name him Buscape, rocket in Portuguese. Word it to City of God.
