I have a 3 month old red/white female puppy that I need to name. The prefix will be Sherwood's and the theme of the litter is "Secret". (Mama dog kept her condition a secret until she was about to pop.) The puppy is a feminine dead ringer, conformation-wise and partially markings-wise, for her sire Baron.

OK everyone so which name do you like best for this pretty little girl puppy?
Sherwood's.......
Secret Endeavor
Keeping Secrets
Secret Reflection
Secret Echo
or possibly going against the theme.....
Spittin' Image
Mirror Effect
Or something else????

I'll take her!!!!
Oh wait, that's not what this is about... LOL
I like Sherwood's Keeping Secrets also.
Second choice would be Sherwood's Secret Reflection.
I like Secret Endeavor, but that sounds more like a boy to me.
Have you ever gone with a Robin Hood, ie Sherwood Forest theme? {Or is that just to corny for words?}

I like the Sherwood Forest theme too :) How about Sherwood's secret Maid Marion and call the beautiful pup "marion".

Funny you should say that......
When I was selecting a kennel name to use, I wanted something reasonably short, easy to spell and pronounce, and easy to remember. My name is Robyn and the Basenjis are true hoodlums so Sherwood it was! :p

How about this: Sherwood's Mystery Reflection and call her "Mystery" or "Misty" for short. This one covers both the fact that Mom kept her a "secret" and the fact that she looks like Dad (reflection)!;) :cool:

How about Sherwood's Secret Crush?
Did you say you have boys? :D
J/K, I have to wait until the baby is old enough. :(

Just a little curious - but do you mean that you didn't know the Mama was pregnant? Did she have only one pup? Very interesting!

Ha Ha Ha I can see Robyn in the bathrobe trying to get the dogs in the door-Ha Ha Ha. If I didn't have so many already I'd take one. But I don't think Shadow would appreciate it. And I am partial to blacks as well!

The perfect name popped in my head as I was driving home today. Something I had not even thought of until then.
legacy - something that is handed down or remains from a previous generation or time
This little girl will be formally registered as Sherwood's Secret Legacy!
You guys came up with some GREAT suggestions! Thanks to everyone for joining in the fun. Now....to decide what I'm going to call her. :p

You realize if you take my suggestion & name her "Lacy" she's really MINE :D :D lol

Well, since you posted "Lacy" first . . . but I thought Lacy, short for Legacy would be a sweet name too. :)

She's a real sight. How about secret echo? She takes my breath away to look at her. She is awsome!
