Cute Dog Names – Inspired byForeign Languages
Our world isamazingly rich in languages, and therefore, it is fantastic how many wordssound cute and carry a good meaning.
For example, youhave Agustin, which is a Spanishname. It is one of the cutest puppy names, and for instance, it would suit aBichon Frise perfectly. The same would go for a Pomeranian, or in fact, anyother breed.
Now we leave Europe to arrive in Hawaii, to find our next suggestion: Alani. A cute Hawaiian name that means orange tree. For instance, it would be ideal for a red-coated dog like an Irish Setter or Redbone Coonhound. Furthermore, it’d also be an excellent name for a Tibetan Mastiff. It can be used for both genders.
Now we come back to Europe, to find our next suggestion: Charlotte. It’s an exquisite and adorable French name for a female puppy because it means petite. It’d suit a toy Poodle perfectly, but in fact, it’d be ideal for many other cute small white dog breeds, even including a Bichon Frise.
Now it is timeto get cold to find our next idea: Kaba.An adorable Alaskan name. It is not common, and therefore, it will bring yourdog a name that outstands from the rest. Evidently, it’d be a good choice forAlaskan breeds like the Alaskan Malamute and the Alaskan Klee Kai.
Now it is time to leave to Asia, to find the final suggestion for this section: Akira. A Japanese name for male puppies. One of the best cute names for puppies because it means “bright and clear dawn”. Therefore, it’d be an excellent choice for white-coated breeds like a Bull Terrier, Maltese Dog, Great Pyrenees or Komondor.
Cute Dog Names Inspired byMythology and Culture
We start this section with one of the mightiest – yet cutest – names for a puppy, Apollo. The Greek god of sun, light, knowledge, healing, and archery. One of the most complex and important deities from the Olympus. Still, it is a remain that screams cute as well. The perfect mix between lovely and powerful.
Of course, we cannot advance without naming the all-almighty and most powerful name of this section, Zeus. The important Olympian deity, yet, its name is very cute and suitable for any dog breed. From a small Chihuahua to a big Dogo Argentino, it is multi-purpose and fits the bill perfectly, because it is adorable!
Now it is timeto leave Greece and depart to Hawaii, to meet our next proposal: Pele. The Hawaiian goddess of fire andvolcanoes. Once again, a very powerful deity with a cute and lovely name, whichmakes it ideal for this listing.
Now let’s fly to Egypt, to find one of the best cutest puppy names, Ramses. Not a deity in fact, but it means “son of God”, which is enough to include it in this listing.
