Need Help with Names!

Working at an animal hospital I hear all the time how someone's deceased pet "sent" them their new one. I'll be honest I always thought it was a sweet thought but always thought it to be a stretch. Well I was about to leave work the other day when one of my coworkers told me I needed to take this appointment, that I would either cry or it would make my day. I walk into the room to find 8 baby pittie pups, ~4 brindles and ~4 black and whites. I of course squished and squeezed each one and was over joyed I had not left yet as puppy snuggles always help when I'm missing my sweet boy (which is all the time btw). One of our basic questions we ask all litter exams is if they have homes or not as we like to send "passports" that has all the info for the new owner and try to use their "new" names when possible. They said that all of them did, but that one of them had just backed out shortly before the appointment. I continue on, getting weights and trimming toes on each pup. When I get to the purple collar baby I stop dead in my tracks. She looked JUST like Buster did as a puppy. I pick her up and set her on the scale and they were like THIS is the one that no longer has a home. In that moment I knew Buster had sent her my way. Her home had JUST fell through, she's a female (hubby's one condition for next dog was it be female), her collar color is purple which is my absolute favorite color, and she looked just like my Buster boy did. Well lets just say I'm glad her previous owners backed out bc now this perfect angel is coming home to me on Friday and I am over joyed. I know she is not Buster and will never replace Buster, but the thought of having another black and white pittie in my home makes my heart smile. Now the hardest part. I'm very weird about names. Most animals I get already had a name and I CANNOT change an animals name when I get it. So this is the first time I've had to actually pick a name in a very long time. You'd think after playing HP for so long I'd have a list of names, and I do for boys (bc I've always preferred boy animals) but have NO names for girls. That's where you guys come in (: I need names! Only condition is it not be something basic like Luna or Bella xD Right now I have a very short list with Ember being my hubby and I's favorite so far. Here are some pics of her and her parents to help (: As an incentive, if I pick someone's name they will win a 1 month upgrade :D Current List : Ember, Harper, Camila, Hattie, Georgie, Luma, Azura, Clover, Raven Here is my sweet girl: Another pic: https://flic.kr/p/2pYHMQF One more: https://flic.kr/p/2pYG7be Buster's first pic vs hers: https://flic.kr/p/2pYHkLf Dad: https://flic.kr/p/2pYSx6i Mom: https://flic.kr/p/2pYG5Ms |

What about Sophie because that was the mate you had trained for your recent mascot devoted to Buster? Just a thought because they go together on here. |

@Nad that's a super cute idea but Sophie was Buster's girlfriend growing up. She is my friends dog so I don't want them to have the same name xD if Sophie wasn't based off a real dog I totally would have jumped at that though! Clover and Raven have been added to my list :D keep them coming! |

I don't have a list (yet), but may I suggest Zuzu? Could be short for Susie, or Susette/Susan/Susanna, but I just love the nickname Zuzu for a pittie girl :D |

We recently got a puppy and ended up with a male (only ever had female!) the names I had chosen before knowing we would get a male were Bramble or Purdy. I love the name Brontë too (one of our previous dogs but she came with the name) congrats on your new pup :D |
