A German woman I met once was named Uli. I am not really sure how it was spelled though. But it was pronounced Oooh-lee. Congrats on the new pup! ~Ann   | |||

I vote "Sarah" We had a German girl for an exchange student last year named Sarah. She was a sweetheart but definitely had a lot of spunk! JDS And so if you meet a hunter who has been to Africa, and he tells you what he has seen and done, watch his eyes as he talks. For they will not see you. They will see sunrises and sunsets such as you cannot imagine, and a land and a way of life that is fast vanishing. And always he will will tell you how he plans to go back.

Brunhilde Gertrude Agnes Wilhelmina Friedericke Adolfina ... some good ones ...  Some better ones: Valkeryrie (not German but Germanic - Odin's war maidens) - Val for short. Lorelei - the singing maiden of the Rhine who brought river sailors to their death Jarvia - spear keen from BobF's list Anja - pronounced Un-ya (Un as in onions) Ulrika - wolf-rule, the male is Ulrik Ulva - wolf (I like this one) Uta - maid of battle (from Bob's list too, very good) | |||

It's down to Ilsa, Ushi or Ulli. Lois likes Ilsa the best, but I got some today so I can hold out for a while. Ulli sounds sweet. Ushi will carry the best on the wind; almost as well as "Goddamnit You Son-Of-A-Bitch", which is what all the city-slickers from Boise call their dogs. Someone stole Petra last week. I offered a $250.00 reward for her return, no questions asked, $500.00 for information leading to arrest & conviction of dognapper(s) and a $250.00 bonus if they get hurt being taken into custody. lawndart | |||

I'm sorry to hear that John, what scum would do something like that?? I did like your reward system, though.  Ushi is a very common German girls name. It is probably spelled Uschi, and is really short for Ursula. - mike ********************* The rifle is a noble weapon...

People who steal dogs should be shot! I hope you find the B*****D and prosecute him to the extent of the law and find petra safe and sound. this has happened to me before and i really feel for you. cheers.tm "one of the most common african animals is the common coolerbok(or coleman's coolerbok).

If you have fans of seventies porn around I´d drop Ushi  ...not that I know anything about that but a friend told me...Bertha is a good solid name. | |||

Sorry to hear about Petra. I happen to agree with your better half, Ilsa would be it. Lo do they call to me, They bid me take my place among them in the Halls of Valhalla, Where the brave may live forever. | |||

How about Steffi. JD | |||

I am very, very sorry to hear about Petra. I sincerely hope everything ends well. I like the german pointers very much myself, am going to get at wirehaired pup next spring. Was visiting the breeder yesterday acutally. A name... I agree with JD that Steffi is a very good name, two-syllable as a good dog name should be and carries well. John, please post if there is any news about Petra. Regards, Martin ----------------------- A man can never have too much red wine, too many books, or too much ammunition. - R. Kipling | |||

Rommel's forces in North Africa often sang a song which translated to "Lilly of the lamp light". What ever the German translation for Lilly is would be good name. "And this too shall pass." | |||

She really responds to Uschi, so that will be it. Lois tried it out this morning on her and decided she really likes the name also. Magda (six years old) and Uschi are getting along well. People around here steal hunting dogs in the summer and use them throughout the season. I am going to look into getting a satellite tracking chip. The next thief won't think it is so funny when they are caught red-handed with a $5,000.00 dog and a class 2 felony charge. lawndart | |||

If you decide to change I personnly lke Tasha It is much easier rolling off the tongue and softer than Uschi // only my opinin mind you Good luck, Peter | |||

I think the translation for "Lilly" might be "Lilly".  As in Lilly Marlene.Uschi is a nice name. | |||

Lawndart, You forgot one thing, in addition to the class II felony, a class 1 ass whuppin'. If someone stole my Lab I would be happy to plead guilty to battery and pay my $110.00 fine just to get 2 minutes with the sumbitch..........JJ " venator ferae bestiae et aquae vitae " | |||

My parents had there little scottie yearling pup stolen last year and then they found it about 3/4 of a mile away. The family that "found" it wasn't going to give it up. Said finders keepers and possession is 3/4 of the law. My mother told the people the dog (Cabela was her name they bought her while on a trip there) had a microchip and she would be calling the police. That did the trick and they got her back, then she dissapeared about 2 weeks later, and never returned. Here in Spain one my sailors had two of his Doberman pups stolen. Same deal, microchips bluff and he got them back, and then they dissapeared for good a few days later. People who steal dogs, aren't people they are shit monsters.  | |||

I had to finally open this thread. "Need a Name" threads DO NOT run to 500+ views and 30+ posts. Either someone names the PH, gunsmith or safari company or not pretty quickly. But then I saw the question. A dog. Man, this thread will never end.  I'd suggest Leni, BTW. Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||
