Without seeing a pic, Ranger is ok, so is Charlie (for no reason at all)

Bernanke?


Our Dane came pre-named, but he was already 2.5 years old, so we left him with "Shadow". Thankfully he is getting over his anger issues. He's a harley

Name it after me. No, not my actual name, but my username : Crono :)

EDIT: To clarify my reasons, it's short ("Names with strong consonants and few syllables are recommended for getting a dogs attention", to quote FoBoT), it's a unique name (if uniqueness matters to you), and it's a name based on a kick-ass video game character. You do want your dog to be kick-ass, don't you?

Plus, there's awlays the slight chance that he might actually be able to travel through time... in which case the name "Crono" will be very appropriate :D

Please don't name your dog Bing Bong. Think of the poor person dogsitting for you chasing your giant dog through a park yelling "Bing Bong!" They'd be locked away.

Ranger's not bad.

I knew a guy who had a great dane named Tiny. He just referred to it as "ya' big fucker." Dog came every time he said it.
