Elegant Male Pomeranian Names

Without a doubt, the Pomeranian has a charmed past.

The breed descends from large working dogs from the Arctic regions which eventually made their way to Germany and Poland. Unfortunately, there isn’t much documentation, but researchers believe breeding in the Pomerania region near the Baltic seas led to the original Pomeranian type of dog.

So how did this breed go from a working dog to a status symbol?

The answer is simple: In 1767, Queen Charlotte, Queen-consort of King George III of England, brought two Pomeranians to England.

Her granddaughter, Queen Victoria, also loved the Pomeranian and established a large breeding kennel. The royal family’s love of the breed increased the popularity of Pomeranians and cemented its status as a symbol of wealth and prominence.

In fact, other royals who owned Pomeranians at this time included Joséphine de Beauharnais (wife of Napoleon I of France) and King George IV of England.

If you’re lucky enough to welcome one of these fancy furballs into your home, consider an elegant dog name that recognizes their elite heritage. Here are ideas for male dogs:

How Do You Pick The Right Name?

After years of helping people pick the right pet name, here are some tips we’ve picked up when it comes to selecting a name for your dog:

1. Does it roll off the tongue? Some names are awesome in theory but tough to pronounce in everyday life.
2. Say it out loud. Can you imagine loudly calling for your dog with this name?
3. Does it fit your dog? You might have the perfect name picked out but it doesn’t fit with your dog’s personality or appearance, that’s a miss.
4. Trust your gut. When you find the right name, you’ll know it!
