How to Find the Best Name for Your New Italian Greyhound

With so many names, it can be hard to get past the generic ones such as “Max” and “Bingo” on the usual websites. Maybe you want a name that will represent your dog’s personality. Maybe you’re just looking for something unique.

There are many different names ranging from simple human names to mythological names to fun, cute names.

Remember, this is the name your pet will have for the rest of their life and the name they will answer to. It’s generally best to keep it a short one or two-syllable name so they can recognize it quickly. Greyhounds are common hunting dogs, so they can be trained to hunt and do tricks.

Greyhounds are speedy and generally on a small to medium scale. They are hunting dogs at heart and have an extreme prey drive. If something small moves, it’s getting chased. This can be pretty fun for you and your new Italian Greyhound, and it could also be helpful if you’re looking for a pack to go hunting with. As for color, they’re generally gray-colored and have cute floppy ears.

You can use these traits to help pick out a name if you so choose.
