Want to help me name my new puppy?

Hey everyone, I'm picking up a new Shetland sheepdog puppy in 3 weeks and I am at a complete and utter loss as to what to name him. There aren't very many boy names I like to begin with, and having it be 2 syllables is tough. So I'm turning to my friends here!

So far the list my friends and I have put together contains stuff like Echo, Cassio, Milou, and Theo. But please don't suggest stuff like Raindrop, Starfox, or Bob!

Anyway, here are some pics. The first two are of the puppy, the other are of my other girl, Mina, so you see what he'll look like full grown.

I'm rubbish at picking names (most of my animals have been called things like Stuart, Steve, and Alan :)). But those are some sweet dogs, Mina is gorgeous :)
 
I like mountain names. Right now our dogs names are Makalu and McKinley. So Mak and Kinley for short. We have had Denali, killamangiro (killi for short) There is an almost endless supply of mountain names you can go with and can be simple like Whitney and Logan or complex as Kangchenjunga. Our chameleon names are George (yes a mountain in BC but named by my kids), Pumori, Laila, Melungtse. Our Crested gecko names are :D Quandary, Sneffels, Chimborazo, Aggasiz, Kilauea, Maunganui, Elbrus, and Humphrey.

By sticking with a theme it is SO much easier to come up with that next new pet ;) And we all know they are coming specially with a hobby like chameleons :D


Congrats!!!! He is adorable...I love puppies!!!!
 
He is merle so you could call him Merlin...:)

That was exactly what I was thinking!!! Merlin also goes good with the name Mina... as when you call them "Merlin, Mina come" I also must add that they are both very beautiful Sheltie's!!!
 
Thanks for the compliments everyone! Shelties are great dogs, I'm really excited to have a second one.

And thanks for the name suggestions! A few gave me good ideas to look into.
 
How about Stay. then you could drive the dog nuts when you call it to come. "come here stay":)
