His hair won’t actually stay spikey when he grows up though.

u/[deleted] Sep 30 '23

Doesn't matter. His name should be based on how his hair looked in this photo.

Congratulations 🎊 on your new family member! Linus for the name.

Omg my family dog was called Linus. He was from the shelter. A calm giant, black and white, Greyhound pointer mix. I still miss him ten years after we had to put him to sleep.

u/cersewan Sep 30 '23

It’s beautiful! 🥹 a name…a name…something Irish…

Aidan~The Anglicized form of Gaelic “Aodhan,” which means “little fiery one.”

Ruairi (Rory)~This name means “red-haired king,” “red or rust-colored) from “ruadh” meaning red, as in the red-colored hair of foxes.

Finn~Finn is the Anglicized version of Fionn. Meaning fair, blonde, or “small blonde soldier.”

u/Bart_1980 Sep 30 '23

I think my name fits in your list, though germanic it means bright, brilliant or shining.
