Nicknames for East European Shepherd: boy and girl

The East European Shepherd breed is classified as a service breed, which is distinguished by its calm character and impressive size. For such a dog, an appropriate nickname is selected. More often, shepherd dogs are called by sonorous, short and bright nicknames, which coincide with the dog’s behavior, external features and do not cause disagreements with the people around them. Sometimes a nickname can even change the behavior and character of a pet.

Beautiful and popular nicknames

Breeders give names to purebred puppies with an entry in the stud book. Another option is practiced in kennel clubs. The initial letters of the puppy's parents' names are taken. These letters must be included in the intended name.

Some owners call their dog a nickname from a popular movie, song or poem:

Nursery or club? Difference in pedigrees

What to do if mating and birth do not take place through any nursery? If mom and dad have pedigrees and are assigned to one of the city kennel clubs, then such a mating must be registered with the club. The club itself submits an application to the RKF to recognize the mating as valid and receives the right to issue pedigrees.

The “ordinal letter” rule remains in this case, however, your German Shepherd will not receive a long, beautiful name indicating his alma mater and almost 40 characters long - no longer possible. No need! Let it remain just Adelina (Delya) or Inberg (Berg)!

The absence of a prefix or suffix is not an indicator of the weakness of the breeding line, no! This is only an indication that the breeders of the puppies’ parents received the referral for mating, with subsequent registration of the litter, not from the nursery, but from the club, which guarantees that the mated dogs have a balanced combination of anatomical, physiological and mental characteristics of the “German Shepherd” breed.

Recommendations on which nickname is better to choose

Whether your German Shepherd puppy has a pedigree, or there is not even a “puppy”, the name that is given to the baby should correspond to this large breed of large, intelligent and extremely intelligent dogs with a strong character and an incredibly great desire to serve you until their last breath.

What is it advisable to focus on?

Below are some tips that will ease your choice:

The nickname should “be heard” by both the person and the dog, be short, clear and easy to remember.
Don’t rush to call a boy’s German Shepherd a beautiful foreign word - in translation this name can mean a feminine object or have a completely bad meaning. For example, the beautiful nickname Blanket in translation means “blanket”, and Damster even means “cesspool”.
You shouldn’t choose common nicknames either. Let’s say the name Blackie, which stubbornly sticks to black German shepherds, has set the teeth on edge. In addition, Blackie is neuter, which is not very desirable for either males or females.
Avoid choosing a name for your shepherd dog from human names - people find it unpleasant when they are called by name and the dog comes running. As an option - the names of foreign lands or the names of historical heroes and names from science fiction films and books.

Recommendations for choosing pet names

Take another look at the puppy's metrics. Perhaps in this official “legal address of an individual” you can see a word or two that is quite suitable as a nickname.

These words should be pleasant to the dog’s ears and not cause outrage among others.

The nervous system of a puppy reacts no less acutely to different combinations of sounds than the sensitive ears of a shepherd dog. The sounds of voiceless consonants alternating with exactly the same ones will be unpleasant for the ears and nervous system.

For example, a name for a girl’s shepherd dog, “Thicket” or “Fairy Tale,” will not be received favorably, and it will be difficult for you to work with this name, because the shepherd dog will “slow down.”

A completely different matter is the nickname for a boy’s German Shepherd “Red” or “Prince”. In these names, dull and hissing consonants are balanced by the sound “R”, which is pleasant to the dog’s ear.

The presence of a dull or voiced “R” sound in the nickname is a desirable option, but not at all mandatory.

Option two is to make a complete translation of the shepherd’s name and build on the translated text. Many German Shepherds have German names due to their origin.

For example: GutaussehendausderHand-Familie (GutashendausderHand-Family) - Handsome (Pretty Woman) from the House of Hands.

After “playing” a little with the letters, we get cool pet names for boys’ German Shepherds:

Derkhan, Derrick, Dar, Jog, Dinar, Dayman, Drogan;
Khan, Hand, House, Hagen, Hyde, His, Khafri;
Farm, Faust, Phil, Flint, Fram, Farim, Friend;
Ascetic, Agul, Argo, Arman, Empire, Antey, Astan;
Groom, Grant, Hess, Garus, Gang, Gaspar, Gurth;
Minor, Marty, March, Myrtle, Mars, Murdoch, Mirza;
Lynch, Lars, Loot, Laus, Life, Likes, Lemur, etc.

From these same letters and syllables, sonorous and beautiful names for a girl’s German Shepherd are obtained:

Hannah, Helma, Holy, Hayta, Chloe, Hanta, Horta;
Dara, Diva, Dixie, Dosya, Dasma, Dora, Digma;
Athena, Agatha, Astra, Agora, Aira, Agra, Arsa;
Gretta, Gordi, Gera, Gyurma, Gamma, Guta, Hessa;
Martha, Mirra, Mara, Merlin, Murga, Marsa, Magna;
Frieza, Forta, Fanny, Festa, Fabbi, Fronta, Fursa;
