Newfoundland dogs have got a lot of nicknames, such as Newf, Newfie and certainly the most popular – the gentle giant, because he really is it.. Ok, so, these are nicknames and you won’t name your dog with any of them, but probably the main reason for writing them is last nick – gentle giant. A lot of people name their pets according to their appearance, skills or something that’s special for them. Newfoundland dogs are big, they have got a kind nature and they are very patient. So, if you are out of ideas you can always give your pet a name that fits into his look or behaving.
Also, there are people that would like that their Newfoundland dog has the same name as certain famous Newf. Therefore, if you are one of them, here are few examples: Bilbo (was lifeguard on the beach), Hairy Man (helped a young a girl and her family to save more than 150 people from a shipwreck), Swansea Jack (well-known Welsh rescue dog), Josh (winner of the Westminster Dog Show, 2004), Robber (dog of the composer Richard Wagner, inspired the opera “Flying Dutchman”) and others.

If you don’t want to, of course that you don’t have to give your Newf the same name as some famous Newfoundland dog had. Besides giving famous names or according to their look, you can always be creative, or search the net if you aren’t into dog’s names. Some good examples for names could be: Blake, Bruno, Buxley, Greta, Henry, Flora, Sam, Jessie, Jumbo, Wolfgang, Max and so on. Newfie is considered by a nickname, but it can be also a name for your Newfoundland dog.
Is the name important and does it determine the one who carries it? Well, this is very questionable and hard to answer. Some people think it is, so they are very slow and careful while deciding what name will their pet have, while others don’t pay so much attention to it and naming isn’t a hard job for them. However, it’s probably a good idea to give your dog some usual name, so he can get used to it easily. This is especially important while training phase. The sooner your Newfoundland dog learns his name, further job will be easier. If your Newf doesn’t remember his name right away, don’t be impatient. Newfoundland dogs are known as patient, so if you want to earn their trust, it will be good that you act on the same way.
