Aimless1 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Getting a male Vizsla puppy on New Years Eve. Need help with naming it! So far we're leaning toward Koda, Scout and Taz. No particular order. Your suggestions appreciated. One or two syllables are best. Here he is today at just over 6 weeks old. Edited December 20, 2011 by Aimless1
Voltron Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 That's weird, Lloyd. I was going to suggest a Hungarian name and that was the first one I had down: OSZKÁR: Hungarian form of Old Norse Ásgeirr, meaning "god-spear."
teufelshunde Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 Perhaps Tito. The name of the first ever Viszla pup here in the U.S. (Oct 7, 1950). Although I like your pick of the name Koda. One of the most frequent commands you'll use with any dog is "Come" and with a name like Koda he'd be highly responsive to any word that begins with a "k" sound.
morphsci Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 Zoltan. ^^^ This. I love that name.

acidbasement Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Hrothgar. Edit: Oh, since it's a Hungarian breed, perhaps you don't want an Old English name. Here's a good list of Hungarian names, with meanings: http://www.behindthename.com/php/browse.php?type_gender=1&operator_gender=&value_gender[]=masculine&type_usage=1&operator_usage=&value_usage[]=hungarian Edited December 20, 2011 by acidbasement
mikeymad Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 Nah, Zardoz, surely? that was my vote
deepak Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 Perhaps Tito. The name of the first ever Viszla pup here in the U.S. (Oct 7, 1950). Although I like your pick of the name Koda. One of the most frequent commands you'll use with any dog is "Come" and with a name like Koda he'd be highly responsive to any word that begins with a "k" sound. In that case I like Colon
MoonShine Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 I like Koda. Primo and Crom are 2 others I have considered in the past.
Voltron Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 I kinda liked Zoltan, but then I found this:
skullguise Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 That would definitely make my vote Zoltan! I wonder if that movie was in Kim Jong Il's archive.....
Aimless1 Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Great suggestions. Thought this introduction to the Vizsla might help. Edited December 20, 2011 by Aimless1
jvlgato Posted December 20, 2011 Report Posted December 20, 2011 My 6 year old son votes for Skeletor. I still like Scout or Zoltan, Hound of Dracula.
Aimless1 Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Posted December 20, 2011 The final name will be used in the field while bird hunting with the pup/dog. Needs to be no more than 2 syllables. I like Skeletor but doesn't meet my requirements for field use. Past dogs have been named (Irish Setter) Whisky, (English Setter) Patch, (Gordon Setter) Maizie and (Gordon Setter) Quest. From the new suggestions so far I like Oscar/Oszkar/Ozkar and Zoltan/Zsolt, and still like both Koda and Scout. Taz (short for Tazmanian Devil) was inspired by the you tube video.
