Answer 3

You could name him after a city in Spain or a Latin American country. There is a great opportunity for literary/historical reference here which will only make your story more interesting.

Examples: Seville, Toledo, Marabella (he loves the beach), Compostella (maybe the main character met him on the Camino and it was an immediate bonding with spiritual overtones), Tarifa (if he has a surfer-dude or loves the wind sort of personality).

Also, naming him after important literary or political characters could be fun. Che, Pancho Villa, Franco, Juan Carlos, Zapatero could all imply certain characteristics of the dog that it would be fun to try to weave into the story.

Have fun with it.

Dog named Che.*

*For many around the world, Che has become a generic symbol of the underdog, the idealist, the iconoclast, or the man willing to die for a cause.

thanks for all the advice! - hihihihihi, Nov 24, 2010

Answer 5

Bingo? I suppose it can work in both languages. If I had a dog and had to give it a name in Spanish, I think I'd call it "Cuba". I just like how it sounds
