Hey guys,

My parents just bought a new male pitbull puppy… i’m going with them tomorrow to pick it up. I need help naming it… so far here are the suggestions…

1. Knuckles
2. Boe

My father wants a cool name. Something gangsterish or something aggressive sounding. I LOVE Knuckles but my father isn’t a fan of it _shrugs_ - he said “knuckles” sounds like that “dipshit mobster” who the boss yells at like on the cartoons.

any suggestions?

Killer is pretty aggressive sounding, I think 😛

What’s the dog like? Any tendencies? Like Rampage? Capone? Tiny?

Get a list of famous Gangsters, see if any fit? Salvatore Gravano AKA Sammy the (Pit)Bull?

Aw! Show us some pictures of the puppy!

My great aunt had a female pitbull with two puppies once. Even the more aggressive dog are really cute as puppies.

I liked the Capone suggestion, Knuckles is also good.

here are a few pics… he’s 8 weeks old. Those “strings” on his ears are sutures that he scratched out. Another day or so and they can come out.

I’d call him “Dog”… I named my last cat “Cat”… I like original names for my animals (can’t wait to get a place where I can own a dog)

I always thought Dammit was a good dogs name.  
“Sit Dammit”  
“Down Dammit”  
“Fetch Dammit”

“quit licking your balls dammit”

🆒

I dunno, I rather prefer ‘Dags’. 😛

**[Tommy](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0334318/)**: Dags?  
**[Mickey](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000093/)**: What?  
**[Mrs. O’Neil](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0193663/)**: Yeah, dags.  
**[Tommy](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0334318/)**: Oh, dogs. Sure, I like dags. I like caravans more.

UPDATE!!!

Thank-you everyone for the suggestions - a name has been picked!

Almost 2 years ago - my father lost his best friend in a car accident (06 dodge viper… use your imagination) - he had 2 pitbulls. One of them looked like petey (sp?) from the little rascals… so guess what he named it LOL. ANYWAYS… my father wanted to pay a small tribute to his friend and decided to name the pup “Booster” - it was his friends nickname. “Knuckles” ran a very close 2nd tho…
