When I get my second pug (yes, I'm thinking about getting another one!) I just might name it "Dilly" because a little girl once took a look at my Paco and said, "His tail looks just like a Dairy Queen Dilly Bar!"

Silly Dilly.

Michelle and Allen said...

Pugs are like potato chips...you can never have just one! :-)

Silly Dilly is an excellent Pug name.

i have a 10 month old pug named Jazz. i'm getting another one this week and i'm planning to name her Baila. i was thinking of a unique name that has something to do with music that's why i came up with "Baila" - a form of dance music. i had to do some research about music styles at wikipedia just for the name. :-P

I named my Black Pug Beijing, looking for a new name for a male fawn puppy. He is a little agressive and dominates everyone. It needs to be a strong name.

We have 2 pugs. Sir Charles Philip Oliver is a fawn pug. AKA "Ollie". Our black pug we adopted at the age of 3 years old. He came to us with the name Frank. At the time, Frank was a little overweight and he was dubbed "Frank the Tank".

We have a 7 mo old fawn female named Buba(boo-ba)perfect fit with the buggy eyes and playfulness. If we get a male the choices would be: Betis, Yoda, Loke, or Bonaparte. All depends on the personality of the Pug.

I'm getting one in a few months - the mum is pregnant and they'll be ready to go by Mid-November. Its going to be a black one. I'm gonna call her either Shadow, Phoenix or Mustang - haven't decided yet. But at least which ever one I choose leaves 2 names for 2 more pugs to come along.

I got a pug 2 weeks ago and I named her Sookie, It suits her very well we call her all kinds of things though Sookie Monster, Sook, the sookster, and Sookie Tookie. Im fearing she isnt very smart though she recognizes her name and responds but doesnt come just looks at me. Are they all like that?

I have a black pug....his name is Mr Snots....aka sir snotsalot fits him to a T

Jennifer said...

We have 3 pugs; Mabel Joy, Nigel Lewis and Otis Getoutofthere.

Otis (black) was named after the drunk from Mayberry.

Nigel (fawn) due to his very black head and he is also a whimpy boy

Mabel was the first. I named her Mabel because it means adorable. My husband insisted that if I name her Mabel, the Joy had to go with it after a song he liked from the 70's. A year after she was named, I found out that the Mabel Joy in the song was a prostitute. My husband thinks he's so funny.

I love Pugsly! I badly want a pug, and that name had been in my mind since forever. Or maybe Tootsie, 'cause that's what I called my Webkinz pug.

Anonymous said...

We have a few names picked out for our pug.
Elmer Fudd
Snickers
Pugsly
Mr. Puggles

We only have one pug and can't decide which name is the best right now, each kid gave their own name and we are going from there.

I got a very sweet black female pug puppy yesterday. She is really cute! We have been trying to think of names.
I liked "Daphne" because she looks like a beautiful Princess & Daphne sounds like the name of a Princess but my husband did not like that name at all he likes "Mattie".
She is very curious and loves to bite and tug on everything, including us! Sometimes it hurts so once I said she bites like the Devil. So we are thinking the name 'Lucy Fur' might be good. We would just call her "Lucy."
My husband said she looks like someone smashed her cute little face with a skillet, but "Skillet" sounds like a boys name to me.
Does anyone have any idea's for a sweet girl's names?

We Just Love all the pug names on the page. We also had a female fawn that passed away that was named Cricket Lol thought they looked like one as a puppy with those bug eyes. Pugs are GREAT FAMILY PETS if you don't have one you are missing out but beware pugs require lots of attention they require affection aslomst as much as they do food they MUST be with their family and be loved know this FIRST they are very special dogs and require the dedication that you would give a new baby! - Amanda (pugsrule)

omg i just had to get rid of my baby pug charlie about 2 months ago
it was ssooooo hard i got so attached to him
i will never forget the way he cuddled me and was the only one i could talk to
he would sometimes even snort at my jokes
when i cried he cried
when i smiled he smiled
when i was sad, mad, or scared he was sad, mad or scared
i love you charlie
you were my baby boy and i will always love you
so remember never get a dog if you are not ready to commit because you get so attached and you may also neglet the dog and that is not nice either!
so spread the pug love evenly
I LOVE PUGS!
