I'm getting a dog. A Boston Terrier. For those not from Boston, look at one here.
A year ago I almost got one at a shelter and he was perfect and I named him Herzog. Not because I'm so very in love with Herzog & de Meuron, but because Herzog is a damned cool name for a dog and it means "the duke" in old German.
I love architecture, I love dogs. I want to name it after an architect or collective or firm, but it also has to be a good dog name. Like, who wants to call his dog "Frank"?

I'm just glad to hear you've chosen a Boston. I'm the proud father of a 1 1/2 year old male, Bruce Lee... I'm sure glad I got a Boston!!!

Well despite the overwhelming interest from the community in the naming of my Boston, I have to postpone actually getting said pup until I hear back from grad schools and find out if I'm moving and where to. So until then, it's all just conjecture.....glorious conjecture!

cross-posted from TC, my suggestions are: Herzog (the dog), Rem, Winka, and Frank (because nobody will know which one you mean).

I think you should name her Martha (as in Stewart). Then, Martha and Corbu can debate Ornament and Crime.
winka's too suggestive.
sorry for the advice ex post facto, but hey...i'm new around here.
i think a good name for a dog is argos.
My in laws named their dog Argos, but they called him "Gus" ...which was also a great name.
RUPERT
garpike
Buckley
Garry. With two r's.
I'm thinking, if after 12 years they haven't named the dog, it's dead.
"Here lies...whomever, in the Tomb of the Unnamed Canine."
How about "Shigeru" after Shigeru Ban?
