Need a Name for my Dog

Just got a five month old mini schnauzer....cute little boy with giant paws and chocolate in colour. We can't agree on a name. Any suggestions?

I had a one a few years back, he was named Spike but you should go with something you like, and a name that you can say in a happy tone when hes good, and in a angry tone when hes not so good haha and another thing i heard for that type of dog, since they are known to hunt for mices, rats, etc... to give them a name that finishes with the "i or y" sound.

Anyways good luck with that

I second Hershy, as soon as I saw his cute little face Hershy came to mind.

What a cutie he is.

I like Hershey as well but since I know a few dogs with that name I would call him Fudge.

Gorgeous!

I like simple names like Sam. I could never call any of my pets this name...my father would kill me.
