Name the Puppy!

[Kayak]

My Mum just got herself a little girl puppy, possibly whippet/jack Russell. She's been getting called "Pup" for the last five days and she needs a name, but mum's had a mental block and can't find anything to suit her. Help her out? She's got an older dog called Star and was looking for names relating to space to go with that, but any suggestion is welcome.

My OH and I went to see her today and tried to help out but could use some more brain power.

Luna? That's a popular one at the moment

 

[JudyN]

Sapphire?
Cassy, short for Cassiopeia?
Stella?

Siri, a shortened and more feminine version of Sirius, the dog star? But if you have an iPad be careful of calling her in the house ....

Thanks all, appreciate it! new suggestions have been messaged to her. Siri is nice and unusual, and fits! I like Luna and Sapphire too. Nova was something my partner suggested which I thought suited her, we've been suggesting loads but mum's fussy.

She asked for something unusual that's going to be popular soon...? I'm not a trend setter so am having trouble helping her

What star sign was she born under ?

I like Luna, suits her colour too.
How about:
Ariel
Aurora
Halley

Biscuit!... or better yet, Cracker!
she's a nice lightly-toasted color, & the double-entendre' of 'cracker' as in firecracker might be very apropos.

Biscuit might be better if she's more on the sweet side.

What about a human name, after an astronaut? Neil? How about Buzz? I wish there was an astronaut named Keith....
