I am getting a Golden Retriever in a couple of weeks and have decided that he should definately have an archery related name.  I am having a little trouble coming up with something good.  Since you are all smarter than me, what say you?

So far we are leaning towards Fletch.

Recurve, Muzzy, osage,

Archer

how about 2feathers!

Tab for a girl, Wensel for a boy.   :D

Magnus, Woodsman(woody), Longbow(Bow)

It is simple, call him Bo. This is a picture of a pup that was happy to be named Bo.

Or you could always call him Hunter. The pup with the bird has no problem with that name.

Great suggestions!!!  Keep 'em coming.

We have considered Muzzy, Fletch, Bear, and Sitka.

So far I like Fletch and Muzzy.  My wife isn't sold on Muzzy.

My best friend has a Lab named Bow so that is out.

Wensel Woodsman of the North. Woody for short.  

Saxton
Howard
or an old Indian name like Pickaspot or Shootagain

What ever you choose enjoy the pup.
A.

Saxton was in the running until a friend had a baby last week and named her son Saxton. He is a beautiful little boy and worthy of the name.  

Someday I will teach him the significance of that name.

Wensel Woodsman of the North is a GREAT name.  Will run that by the family.

Anyone else?  I know there are tons of dog lovers here.

Simple names work well for dogs. If a male.

Ull/Ullr Norse God of Archery and Hunting.

Apollo Roman & Greek god of Archery (also the Sun God which fits a golden)

how about:

Ischi

Ishii was voted down by the family.

I like Apollo and Fletch.  Hard to come up with a good registry name that fits though.  Little help?

Cheveyo
 Sha- va-o

Indian name means sprit warrior

So far, "Apollo's Master Fletcher" is in the lead.  We would call him "Fletch".

You guys are way more creative than I am.  Keep 'em coming!

As an ex retriever trainer and junkie one syllable words work best for a hunting dog.  Fletch is good.

It needs to be short that can be yelled out with authority to get him to instantly respond. I think your idea of FLETCH fits the bill.

You could name him Bear, though the archery tie in would elude most non-archers.
