Everybody would love to give their dog a name which is clever. This is because having a clever dog name is fun. When naming your pup, you should definitely look at the options.
These 75+ eye-catching and clever dog names are bound to bring a smile to your face!
A dog is a friend for a lifetime so giving a name that suits your relationship with him is all good. There are all-time favorite names like Rocky, Bella, Max, Lucy, and King. However, clever names for dogs are unique in their own meaning.
An example would be my own Golden Retriever whom we named Toby. Toby is a common dog name which means that he got his other nicknames like Toby of owner Phil.
This makes the dog less special. Hence it is a nice idea to give your puppy a name that is unique and these names are known as clever dog names.
Now if you really want to give your dog a unique name then do choose a name from the list below. I have given an exhaustive list of clever and unique dog names.
This means that you need not look beyond this list to find more names for your puppy.
The literal meaning of clever is to use the brain to show some kind of uniqueness.
The official definition from Dictionary is “mentally bright; having sharp or quick intelligence; able” and “showing inventiveness or originality; ingenious.”
Now I will list clever dog names for various categories of puppies and dogs that include both male and female.
