First thought was Pinhead, but then someone said shit head and that was classic.
Personally, I'd stay away from any pinball related name.
We've used names in the past for some of our cats that had meaning from when we got them.
Puffy - we lived on Puffin Place
Houston - my wife was doing a lot of travelling to Texas
Stormy - just because Stormy Winter sounded cool and my wife wouldn't name our son that!
So I vote for Briggs.
Quoted from presqueisle:Lucky!
This was my thoughts as well because he is one lucky dog to be getting a great new home and awesome pet owners who will take good care of him and give him the proper care that he needs and deserves. Thank you for adopting him!
I always liked the name Taffy for a dog.
In fact, I like to name my animals after candy. E.g - Taffy, Toffy, Lolly, Truffles, Candy, Chico, Chomp, Jelly Bean, Minty etc..
Quoted from boscokid:I suggest Nolte. Dog kinda resembles him a little.
This Dude nailed it and he won't get confused with other stupid names people call their dogs.
NOLTE! for the win
Quoted from KozMckPinball:Charles Town begs for the name Charlie. Or if you want a pinball related name, Shooter.
Shooter was the first name that came to mind when reading your thread title. Enjoy the new member of your family!
Shooter, orbit, post transfer < pun. I like flipper, but then I think of the stupid dolphin edit: flip would be good tho!
Had a friend who named their dog damnit. They would always yell “come here damnit” , “stop it damnit” It definitely caused some stares and mean looks when they took him out in public on walks
I would hold back from Lucky -- that name pops up from time to time at the vet clinic and the dog/cat always seems to have unlucky experiences after adoption -- no fault of the owner of course.
Bumper or Slingshot for pinball names, otherwise if you are like me and have a Polish background we'd go with Stache (as in Mustache without the Mu).
Quoted from Lord_of_the_pins:Cute dog nice job !! My vote is lord Howard hurtz Or Chewbacca or chewie for short !
Chewie. Hand Clap. Nice.
