I am getting a female whippet and am wracking my brain for name ideas... has anyone met a dog with an AT-related name? Would "Katahdin" be acceptable for a girl? :eek:

You may find non-hiking family/friends calling her "Katie" for short but Katahdin is an awesome name for a poochster.

I like Katahdin, too.

It would be fun to call her Springer, just because it would confuse people about her breed. (People are confused enough by whippets anyway.) But here are a couple ideas:

Nantahala -- Nanny, for short.
Unicoi
Wayah (I like that one)
Smoky (depends on her color)
Kincora (but it might get shortened to "Kinky")
Skyline
Blaze
Harper
Mahoosuc (it just sounds funny)

Good luck, have fun, and enjoy the Whippet Frenzies.

Or if she likes to jump up on people or things you could call her Puds

Our black and tan is named Siler, from the AT. We also thought about naming him Baxter, Katahdin, and Rufus A. Morgan, but decided on Siler. :)

Ran into a guy at Dick's Creek Gap a year or two ago with a black lab named Springer. Our lab is Scout, as Mrs Tabasco denied the use of Springer as the dogs name.
