COLUMN: How do you decide what's in a (pet's) name?

Our esteemed colleagues at the Nanaimo News Bulletin recently released a list of the top 10 most popular registered dog names in that city.

The first pet we had when I was a young boy was a calico kitty named ‘Dilly’, which was shortened from Dylan Thomas, my Mum’s favourite poet. After those two, I kind of lost my naming rights, with all the younger members of the household taking over. Both pooches are now in doggie heaven, along with Diesel, the black lab who became Sam’s best buddy and I called ‘Doyle’ because that was how the two-year-old pronounced his name.
