Hunting Dog Names

  1. Trapper
    • Origin:

      Word and occupational name
    • Description:

      In this era of Scout and Ranger and Hunter, we suppose Trapper is an inevitability. About 30 baby boys got that somewhat frightening name in the US last year.
  2. North
    • Origin:

      Word name
    • Description:

      North's image and gender status was irrevocably changed when Kim Kardashian and Kanye West announced it as the name of their newborn daughter. But why not? West is firmly established as a name, Easton is coming up strong, and North has a nice solid sound as well -- certainly as appropriate for either gender. South, though, not so much.
  3. Radar
    • Origin:

      English modern coinage
    • Meaning:

      "electionic communication system"
    • Description:

      Coined in the 1940s: an acronym of "radio detection and ranging".
