Find more male dog name ideas here. Because the other letters of the alphabet are of course missing.
That’s already the entire list of all dog names. You probably just skimmed the list at first. I always do that. However, you must have overlooked a few great names.
Scroll up again, taking a closer look at each name. Maybe one of the names is inspirational and gives you more ideas.
We would like to introduce you to particularly beautiful names in more detail. We explain each name with the meaning and origin of the name.
Female dog names starting with S
Salina
The name Salina comes from ancient Greek. It means “the light” or “the shine”. The name is probably a variant of “Selina”. As a derivative of Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon.
Selma
Selma is derived from the Celtic “shelma”. This means “beautiful view”.
In addition, the name comes from the Turkish and Bosnian area. Here it means “harmony” or “peace”. Selma is also derived from the German of “Anselm” under “He who is under the protection of the gods”.
Shauna
Shauna means something like “God is kind, gracious”. This refers to the Hebrew name of God.
The name Shauna is the feminine form of Shaun, English Seán. Again, this is the Irish form of “John”.
Sina
The name Sina comes from many languages. The origin is therefore not clearly documented here.
On the one hand, he is the short form of “Zinaida”, the daughter of Zeus. On the other hand, the name means “beautiful” in Arabic, “power” in Frisian, and “young, victory” in Scandinavian languages. In addition, Sina can be translated as “the rose” from Latin and “shine, ornament” from Hebrew.
Male dog names beginning with S
Sammy
Sammy is a popular dog name. It comes from Hebrew and means “to hear”, derived from shama. Also, “the Mighty God”. However, this meaning has not been clarified with certainty.
Silas
The name Silas means “the forest”. This goes back to the Latin word “silva”.
Likewise, the name may be any of the Aramaic variants of the Hebrew name Saul. Here the meaning is “the one requested of God”.
Spike
Spike comes from English. The name means “spike, thorn”. This name is especially good for dogs that have naturally erect coats. The name also suits a lively and playful character.
Spencer
The origin of the name Spencer is in Old French. It derives from despensier, which means “the distributor”.
The name is particularly suitable for animals with an English or French pedigree. The name used to be unisex, but today it is more of a masculine name.
The origin of many names is not entirely clear. Often there are several assumptions and therefore different meanings.
At first, you will quickly notice whether your dog will accept the name. And if you really like him if you have to call him several times.
Appearance and character are often decisive when it comes to naming. However, it depends on your taste whether you want the name to be more flashy or classic. Here on the pages, you will surely find the perfect name for your four-legged friend.
