Ghostrider Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 ^^ As I understand it the OP is wanting a name to register as a kennel/stud etc name, rather than as the name of one particular dog. Maybe I picked it up wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifi Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 It will be the Kennel club name of that particular dog. You can have an 'everyday' name as well. Many years ago, our Chow was Chang of Rensdale but plain ol' Simba to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted January 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND A WAY TO MULTIQUOTE - UNLESS I COPY.... "Wirs" to me is the plural of "our". As in "yuns wirs" - "that's ours". It would be used to denote your place of recidence, yes, but as in "come to ours" - "cum ta wirs". Onywy ...OKAY AND THANKS Maybe i've missed this at some point in the posts but is it a dog or a bitch you are naming? YEP THE NAME IS FOR A KENNEL - BUT HAS TO HAVE THE NAME QUINCYS IN IT ^^ As I understand it the OP is wanting a name to register as a kennel/stud etc name, rather than as the name of one particular dog. Maybe I picked it up wrong though NO THAT IS THE CASE.... It will be the Kennel club name of that particular dog. You can have an 'everyday' name as well. Many years ago, our Chow was Chang of Rensdale but plain ol' Simba to us. Hmmmmm - i'm not sure i understand what u mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmmm - i'm not sure i understand what u mean Used to be the case, certainly in the UK, that for the Kennel Club you registered a name for your pedigree dog but you would still have an ordinary name for your dog that you'd use every day as well. Perhaps different where you are. Posh name & everyday name. Edit: Think OP is asking for one name only - the Kennel Club name - but I may well be wrong in which case, sorry!

OKAY No it is the same here - Quincys Pedigree name is Capstone Medicineman fram a kennel named Capstone - and we call him Quincy as the "medicineman" Jack Klugman - remember that show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavi Ugl Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 I think the old Shetland word for dog is "hund". Kennel Quincy's Hund Micko?. I've also seen somewhere the old Shetland word "hjarta" which I think means "heartfelt/beloved wishes". Kennel Quincy's Hjarta Micko?. Not sure if they "work though":( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filskadacat Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 What beautiful dogs. Above my desk there is a very similar photo of my black one - who collided with an older, grumpier collie and died of the resultant bite in Weisdale just before I went off to university in October 1970. He was called Lerry after Lerwick - not very good. But wir cat fae Sound is ca'ed Filska and that's a fine name - means a bit of spirit, a bit awkward, a bit bolshie - just like her owner...

deardron Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 I've looked into the Shetlandic etymological dictionary and picked up blindly some [odd] old words (probably all out of use), that are Shetlandic-only and weird enough to be used as spesific dog names (still depends whether it's a dog or bitch): boki - ghost, bogey for frightening childrenelfswind - elf-windemek - tabu term for firefirfoder - four-footed one, sea tabu term for cat (cat and dog is almost the same isn't it? )køllifirbølli - headlonglaven-lugged - having hanging earslegviser - compass, guidemukkelevi - sea-devilnjaffin - a little [naughty] childplottisidna, plottisidni - a tabu term for swine (noone but you will be aware it's about swines!)rodrastobb - a child/very small person, thickset little fellowsulbrigda - basking sharksnippek - the snipe; a giddy girktuddek - tuft of woolversmoia - tabu term for sister-in-law But there's certainly more words like these in the dictionary, it's just a small fraction..

shoormal Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Going back a bit from John Graham's dictionary.......... Jakobsen has the word "vair" which means, excellent person, animal, or thing; a clever, energetic person, physically well developed - the best , the most prominent of a kind within a certain circle. He/she was "da vair o' da isle" (he/she was the best, the cleverest and physically finest in the isle). I believe the word "vire" (a great beauty) is derived from this. Quincy Vair.........?

Thanks a lot for the afford and the great ideas - But the name is for a Kennel and will be the dog/bitches pedigree name - a call name is different......
