BRUNO
BRUTUS: Latin Origin with origins with the word Brute. Mostly used with the “brute” aspect in mind, the true meaning of Brutus is slow witted, and dull in the head.
CAESAR: Long haired, friend of many.
FANG
GOLIATH
KILLER:- No meaning to take seriously. This name was popular with Rottweilers even though they usually tend to be mellow dogs. This name is ideal as a funny name for say, a poodle?
KING: Top dog, tough dog. I met 1 King and he looked intimidating but was actually a big sweetheart but between the name and his black fur and size, he gave the image of a dog to be reckoned with.
KODAK
KONG: As in King Kong
RAMBO: From the classic soldier movie
ROCCO, ROSCOE, or ROCKY
SAMSON
SCARFACE: Al Pacino’s most violent of movies.
SCRAPS: From the Charlie Chaplin movie “A Dog’s Life”
SPIKE: English Origin. Meaning – Ear of Grain. It’s literal meaning is a long and heavy nail but the Americanized flavor of “Spike” brings visions of spiked collars and for some, conjures up visions of “Spike” the Billy Idol look alike vampire from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
SUSQUATCH
TAZMANIAN DEVIL: Taz for short – Yes, a Looney Tunes reference – maybe not scary but you are only going to name a larger rammy dog this name.
THOR: I think we’re all picturing the super Viking, super-sized hammer wielding Norse figure. Yes, Thor, god of thunder.
