German Shepherd Names

German Shepherd dogs are often seen as mighty and strong so many people who have German Shepherd Dogs choose names which are associated with courage and strength, famous leaders, kings, gods and heroes.

Although there are many popular German Shepherd names available, it is also easy to make your own unique name for your dog.  You just need to make sure that the name you come up with is easy to pronounce and recall.  The popular names can be used if you are totally stuck for ideas on what name to give your dog.

If you plan on having your German Shepherd dog attend dog shows and contests, then choosing a good name is very important.  A dog which has special or unique abilities can often become even more popular when they have a great and unique name.  Looking at pedigree, some names really stand out, while others are very funny to read.  Make sure that you consider all cons and pros when choosing a long name for your dog. Additionaly, you can always have a  short "call name" for your dog that is different from dog's official AKC registered name.
