Icelandic Dog Names? Help!?

Question

I'm getting an icelandic sheepdog and the breeder (my aunt) says the name we choose must be icelandic. I was looking at some online and a lot of them seem too strange. The ones that have good meaning to them that I've seen aren't to my liking either. We're still undecided to whether or not we're getting a boy or a girl so options from both would be lovely. If it helps - it is going to be tan and white :) Thanks!!!

Check out the sites listed below.  Dog-paw-print.com has lists of 100 dog names, girl/boy dog names, top pet names and more.  They have a cute video of Samson the bowling pug under funny dogs and the pug miracle story is pretty neat.  funpetnames.com lists names alphabetically by name, meaning, type and gender.  They also have a section to browse by origin (how about eskimo).  Happy hunting!

Answer 6

I don't speak Icelandic, but I do speak Swedish.  They are very close.  How about "Hunden" (or the Icelandic equivalent thereof) which means "the dog."  In Swedish it's pronounced HOON-den with a sound almost like the short 'oo' in "look'" or "book."  I think that's one of the words that would be very close.

I has some Swedish friends who named their dog Dogg because it was funny.
