Old English Sheepdog
I saw an Old English Sheepdog the other day and I remembered how it was my favourite dog as a little girl, but I never thought of a name.
How would you name an Old English Sheepdog? m&f

Okay, I love Nigel for this dog! It fits perfectly.
Funny, I always mispronounce and mishear Harry as hairy! George fits perfectly and I like Nigel

Frank. Short for Frank Mills. More Hair than this, you don't get.
I must have seen it somewhere, but whenever I see a dog like this, the name "Farley" immediately comes to mind.For a girl dog, I think something sweet and homey would be nice - Ebba, maybe?
For Better or For Worse?
Oh wow, I had completely forgotten about that comic! Yes, that's where the association comes from! Haha, thank you
They're cute! Harvey just feels right, and I think Vicky would suit a girl. That's what I'd probably name one.
The first name that comes to my name is Barnabas. Barney, for short!
I kind of like Arthur, too.
