Names

[stoutfellow]

I am giving serious (well, half-serious) consideration to the idea of naming the dogs-to-be "Dexter" and "Links". I'm sure there are people - at least two, and probably more - on my FL who will get it.

Have you read H. Beam Piper's Fuzzy novels?

[stoutfellow.livejournal.com]

I have, yes. (I'm wearing my linguist hat for this one.)

I thought I understood the point of pairing those names (intellegavi, ich habe verstanden). But where do Piper's Fuzzy novels (which I have read) enter into it?

I'm assuming that akatsukami was referring to the, um, unusual sets of names certain Fuzzy-Pappies (and Mummies) gave to their charges.

What? You're not going to name them Miles and Mark? [g,d,r]

Heh, but do they also have to walk on the appropriate sides?

So, are you still set on your sinister design?
