List of dog names
An utterly pointless list, with no standards whatsoever for entry on it. As far as I can tell, pretty much every word in every language has been used at some point as a dog name. --jpgordon&#8711;&#8710;&#8711;&#8710; 19:55, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. Useless, unencyclopedic. But BJAODN that lead. :-) JoaoRicardo 21:25, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete, useless trivial list. Megan1967 00:17, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, next'll be the list of pet python names. Wyss 01:13, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Article created by 64.123.150.90, whose contributions to this point verge on vandalism. This article is a very incomplete list of seemingly random (and definitely non-dog) names. Example:
 * Flute
 * Flutey
 * Foley
 * Foli
 * Fonzi
 * Foo
 * Foo-Foo
 * Foot
 * Footfoot
 * Footfootfoot
 * Forth.
 * I must admit that I added a bunch of "F" names after voting Delete mostly to show how silly the whole thing was. But some of those names are names of actual dogs. Which is why this is a silly list. Elf | Talk 06:10, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. There are web sites with much better lists. The local phone book is a list of useful information and doesn't belong in Wikipedia either. Dsurber 03:15, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * In case it wasn't clear from my comment when adding a hyperlink to this to dog, which might have been too subtle: Delete. Uncle G 09:02, 2005 Feb 14 (UTC)
 * Delete though I think the opening line is damn funny, even BJAODN-worthy: "According to the guide of dog names, giving them names is a good idea," Andrew Lenahan - St ar bli nd 12:41, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)
 * "Ditnity?" "Ebullient?"  I tell you, the opening line and "Footfootfoot" about had me on the floor.  A dog named "Et cetera?"  Delete, BJAODN the opening line and a few well-chosen examples.  Here, Footfootfoot!  Nice Footfootfoot. - Lucky 6.9 00:14, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * But Foot Foot was a cat! Oh yeah, and delete for being unencyclopedic. And don't forget the redirects, Dog Name and Dog Names. &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 01:20, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
