Dog names need to be well thought out – our grandmothers already knew that. That’s why old names are now making a comeback. We only say: Brunhilde…

… but come here now! do you sit down Yes, that’s fine, Brunhilde, you’re a real sweetheart!

Well, these sentences should probably sound familiar to anyone who has ever had anything to do with dogs. Because let’s be honest: As with children, we very quickly fall into our own language when dealing with our four-legged friends. If we want to or not. Since we can’t change anything about it anyway, we prefer to deal with the vocabulary that we still have in our hands. And which we will inevitably say very, very often when we acquire a new family member.

Even our grandparents knew: the name of our dog should be considered at least as carefully as that of a child! It has to sound good, but also be something special. And because many dog ​​names are similar these days, let’s take a look into the past – and trust in what our grandmothers once thought was good.

Incidentally, first place is dedicated to Grandpa Ortwin. We once learned from him: Dogs should be called Basko. And it doesn’t matter whether owners have actually given them a different name – if they look like a Basko, they are also called Basko.

There are similar anecdotes to be found in many of our families, where we meet fifis and rascals, who, by the way, were used by our grandmothers in an exemplary gender-neutral way back then. If you like it more classic, you can choose Brunhilde or address your dog properly by its last name. A Herr Schmidt is guaranteed to hear well – and when you call him, a few other passers-by will turn around. This is how you make new friends.

As you can see, we can still learn a lot from our grandparents, and not just in terms of cake recipes. You can also rely on her advice when it comes to dog names.
