Hey guys, first post here. I've read your stories and they're interesting and very creative! I'd like to share mine. We have a Golden Retriever and we found it very difficult to give him a name, because there are just too many we can think of. We wanted to give him a really good name that fits his character, so it took us quite a while. We even actually changed his name a couple of times, and eventually we got a name that we're all satisfied with.
"Rafa"
Since we always bring him with us to the tennis court when we play and he likes staying there as well, we gave him the name "Rafa", derived from one of the greatest tennis player ever, Rafael Nadal. It was fitting not only for his character as he's a dog that never gives up, but also for the place he often goes to! Everybody else in the court liked the name and we all started calling him Rafa.
Before we actually decided to call him Rafa, we're actually choosing between the names "Roger" and "Rafa"! We even asked the regular players at the court which name they like better. The majority liked the name "Rafa" better, but it was a close call. (Now, Novak isn't a good name for a dog eh? )
