Names by first letter

Breeders often give all puppies of one litter names that start with the same letter. Here are the registered names for each letter.

Names by breed

Why so many names start with A and B

Breeders name every puppy of a litter with the same letter: A for the first litter, B for the second, and so on. That is why A and B names lead the stud book. If you buy a puppy from a kennel its registered name is often chosen already, but at home you can call it whatever you like.

Frequently asked questions

Where do these names come from?

From the stud book of the Lithuanian Kennel Club (LKD): the names in the pedigree papers of dogs born since 2023. We remove the kennel name from each and count one-word names only. Pedigree dogs are named differently from mixed breeds, and at home a dog often goes by something shorter.

How do I choose a name for my dog?

Pick a short name of one or two syllables that is easy to call and does not sound like a command ("Sit", "No"). Make sure it does not sound like the name of someone else in the family or another pet. Use it from day one so the puppy learns it quickly.

Why do puppies of one litter have names starting with the same letter?

It is a breeders' tradition: each litter of a kennel gets its own letter (the first A, the second B and so on), so the name and the kennel name tell which litter a dog comes from. The name in the pedigree stays for life, but at home you can call your dog whatever you like.
