781.0. "Terms of Endearment" by KAOFS::S_VLASIC () Fri Apr 10 1992 16:30

    I am looking for a one word "term of endearment" type name, e.g. Bijou
    = Jewel, for a four legged female "baby" that I will take delivery of
    in approximately one week.  Something in either French/Spanish/Italian
    would be most welcome.
    
    While I'm here, here are some names:
    
    Susan Marie (that's me)
    Michael Ernest (hubby)
    Graeme Ross (our son)
    
    My siblings:
    
    Christine Ann
    Stephen John
    Bruce Anthony
    Kerry Paul
    Vivienne Claire
    Shane David
    Deanna Elizabeth
    
    Thanks in anticipation,
    Susan

781.1International but can't spelt wirth a dameBSS::K_LAFFINMon Apr 13 1992 20:1820
    Luba (although not the REAL spelling) is Russian for love
    Meja (not correctly spelled either I don't believe) Spanish for
       Daughter
    Schotsy (pronounced shot-see)(sp) German for "Sweetheart"
    Glickamo (sp) Greek for "Sweetheart"
    
    
    I think Schotsy would be cute.  ummmmmm....
    
    four legged?  We are talking a "furry" baby aren't we?
    
    
    Ahhh
    
    BAAbooshka (pronounced not spelled is Russian for little girl)  you can
    call her "babs"

781.2Affirmative - A Furry BabyKAOFS::S_VLASICMon Apr 13 1992 20:599

    Yes, it's a papillon puppy - the first dog I've ever owned and we are
    having a more difficult time agreeing on a name than we did choosing
    human baby names.
    
    Hope Babynoters will forgive me!!

781.3KAOFS::S_BROOKTue Apr 14 1992 18:175
    Since papillon is butterfly ... and a common (and regal) butterfly here
    is the Monarch ... what about something of a Royal or Regal name ?
    (Not Rex ! :-) )

781.4Our Papillon Has A NameKAOFS::S_VLASICTue Apr 28 1992 16:2912
    Gentlepeople:
    
    Thanks for your suggestions.  I thought I would close off this topic by
    advising that we have decided on the name Gypsy, which is old English.
    
    We thought it would be appropriate for a breed whose origins are
    distinctly European (Spanish/Belgian/Italian/French) as we usually (at
    least I do!!) consider Europe to be the home of the gypsy peoples.
    
    We take delivery of our "baby" this Friday.  I am so excited!!
