Names for your Pug
Take some time and do some research before chosing a name for your Pug, as this name will be used well over 40,000 times for the rest of your Pug's life.

Keep the name short but choose one that does not sound as a command.
Choose a name that corresponds to the breed and the size of the dog. For Pugs Chinese names or names that refer to something rare and fine (such as "Trufle") are good examples of great Pug names.

Some suggestions for Pug names:

Chinese dog names: JUNZI ("gentleman", a term coined by Confucius to describe his ideal human), GAI LI ("pretty girl", the phrase refers to a girl that is not only beautiful, but nice and charming as well).

More typical Pug names: Pugsley, Zoey, Winston, Oliver, Bosco, Venus.
