[mik]

 

[Sarah Sum1]

Oh bless Whats his/her name? I used to have a great dane as a child, lovely dogs.

 

[My_chestnut_mare]

OMG he is adorable how cute!!!!!

 

[PinkFairy]

Aw what a cutie!! I'd love a GD pup but OH won't allow it

 

[My_chestnut_mare]

wooops i forgot to ask that if he/she.

 

[mik]

Thankyou, we are name choosing as we also have her half sister, she is called Juno after the goddess, so we wanted another goddess (any suggestions?), this is her half sister, watching show jumping, in feb, but bigger and 1 1/2 years old now, they are the best natured dogs I love them.

 

[niagaraduval]

awwwww

 

[PapaFrita]

How cuuuuuuute!!

 

[mattilda]

Gorgeous. Bet she doesn't stay that size for long!!
Freya Rhea Venus Vesta (sounds like a ready made curry!!) Hebe Hera Isis. Can you tell I googled goddesses?

 

[emma69]

If it were me, I would want a goddess name with similar roots - not a Norse or Greek goddess name! I would be tempted by Ceres, who was her sister or Minerva, her sister in law.

 

[Sarah Sum1]

Hera goddess of marriage
Athena goddess of wisdom
Freya goddess love, beauty
Isis goddess of life and magic
Rhea titan earth goddess
Vesta goddess of the sacred flame

Hope some of these help

You googled quicker than me

 

[only_me]

definately athena - she was Zeus' favourite daughter, because one day when Zeus had a terrible headache and got Hephastus (blacksmith) to spilt his head open, and out popped athena, fully grown and covered in armour.

She was the patron goddess of athens, so she is definately the one to choose

And I didnt google btw - I did classical civilisation for GSCE and one module was greek gods

 

[Osiris]

Awwww, amazingly cute.

ok Goddesses of the top of my head - I did this for my Kitten, but ended up choosing a god's name instead Osiris poor thing must have a complex by now

Athena,
Aphrodite
Persephone
Isis
Ammut
Daphne
Dione
Rhiannon
Hecate

Good luck - I'm sure she will find her name soon

 

[emma69]

No no no, you can't have one greek goddess and one roman goddess! Ohhhhhhhh no that would grate something rotten!

 

[only_me]

Or you could go with Regina, which was what Juno was called in Rome city?

 

[only_me]

No, you would be ok, Athena is the greek equivalent of Juno as in the goddess of war (I think anyways

)

 

[emma69]

But that would be like calling your children Bill and Will - they can't have the 'same' name!

 

[aidybex]

OMG - so cute - want one..........I've always wanted one and call it Tiny - just to be ironic LOL

 

[welshied]

awww how cute

 

[Charmaine18]

Ooooh, she's so cute! The photo put a big grin on my face.

Let us know what you decide to call her!

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

Athena

And can we have lots more piccy's please

 

[minerva]

MINERVA obviously - thats the Roman Athena, the Greek Juno is Hera

and the irony of Minnie for short!

 

[JoJo_]

Awww adorable. We had to put our great dane to sleep last October. She was 11 so not a bad age. My mum has now downsized sort of and got two Weimaraners! I think they are far more of a handful than one great dane though! Such big softies.

 

[FrodoBeutlin]

Artemis!!

Or Luna!

 

[Moggy in Manolos]

What a cutie

 

[Donkeymad]

Gorgeous, I always wanted a GD! Someone just a few minutes from me breeds them - such temptation!!

 

[mik]

Hey, you guys are great, she is coming home soon so more piccys will be on the way and I love all the advice on names. I already have a Mini, so we can't use that, we like Hera very much, I have a swiss friend called Luna who will kill me if I use that!!!! But I think we will wait until she arrives and see then, her breeder wants to call her Mona Lisa, but i'm not sure, short is Mona, in spanish, pretty, cute so I guess it works. Tahnks again to you all, hugs, riojas and tapas all round! x

 

[Jen92]

Aww this all reminds me of German Shepards we used to have - Apollo and Zeus

 

[Box_Of_Frogs]

That's not a Great Dane, it's a Tiny Dane!!!
