Skeleton Dog Names: Find the Perfect Bone-Chilling Name!

Okay, so I've got a new puppy! He's a little rescue, super cute, but totally looks like a bag of bones right now. We're working on fattening him up, but in the meantime, I thought it would be fun to brainstorm some "skeleton" themed names. I mean, he kind of looks like one, running around all skin and bones!

Skeleton Dog Names: Find the Perfect Bone-Chilling Name!

Brainstorm Time!

First, I grabbed a notebook and pen – gotta go old school sometimes. Then, I just started jotting down anything that came to mind when I thought "skeleton" or "bones."

  • Bonesy
  • Ribcage
  • Skully
  • Phantom –Okay, this is good and creative.
  • Casper– I do love this name!

I showed my list to my partner, and we had a good laugh. Some of them were pretty ridiculous, I admit. Like,"Clavicle"? Seriously? Who names their dog Clavicle?!

Refining the List

We decided to refine the list, crossing off the ones that were too weird or hard to yell across the dog park.

We wanted something a little spooky, but also kind of cute. You know, fitting for a skinny-but-sweet pup. And nothing too common – we didn't want five other dogs answering when we called his name.

The Finalists

After much deliberation (and a few more cups of coffee), we narrowed it down to three finalists:

  • Casper: I mean he is friendly, and he does resemble casper.
  • Phantom: He is black and kinda looks like a ghost.
  • Bonesy: It's classic, a little bit silly, and definitely fitting.

We're going to "test drive" these names for a few days, see which one feels right. It's a big decision! Naming a dog is serious business, you know? I will get back to you when I finally decide. Wish me luck!
