If you got your pup from a breeder and they’ve never had a name, you’ll have to pick your very own. Or maybe you adopted a dog from a shelter and you aren’t keen on the name, and you’re just wondering if you can change it without needlessly confusing the pup (yes, you can!). Today we are focusing on dog names that start with M.
Picking a dog name isn’t easy, because it’s a name you’ll both have to live with for a long time. There may be worries that you’ll eventually come to hate the name, or that it just won’t sound as good to you in a few years when you’ve heard it so much practicing recall, at the vet’s office, and in other places. Pressure’s on to pick something you’ll never get tired of saying or hearing.
You could choose color-based names, or look at different languages, but one of the best things to do is consider the human names you like. There might be a starting letter that crops up a lot.
For example, if you like names beginning with M, take a look at the best dog names that start with M. We have a handy list here for you!

Don’t be afraid to change things up if something doesn’t feel quite right. You can change the spelling to put a unique twist on any of these, or use a male name for a female dog (or vice versa).
You don’t have to stick to what’s expected. The most important thing about your dog’s name is that you love it.
