    As someone who feels names have a big impact on life...I am not sure I would call a dog Vandal ;)

    Kye is a common one down here (Meaning 'Dog' in Cornish)

    I like Twist.

    If I were to have another (BC) boy it would be Storm, but then I have a bit of a weather/sky theme going on at the mo, my BC bitch is Skye, my boyfriend is Cloud, my (niece's) pony is Sunny, my BC pup is Star.

    I know a couple of Twists---if you want to do agility maybe not good if he does twist!

    I like Cree as a name but can't use it now as I gave it to a friend for the one who was called Vinnie the Vandal when she had him----he changed overnight (G)!

    Hi,

    If he'd red, how about "Copper"?

    We had an Irish Setter when I was growing up (I was about 11 I think when we first brought him home). He was known, very aptly, as Copperplate Confusion! (although I doubt a BC would get as confused as he did).

    I like Jasper but my OH wouldn't let me have it :( so we ended up with Toblerone (Toby)

    Havoc is good! Casper? Mack? Duster?

    I like Cash.... will certainly make for some fun commands: "Cash, stay" "Cash come here" "Cash dinner".. and when you're angry "No Cash" ;-)

    I had a boyfriend once who had an Irish red setter: called him Blue..... always loved that one (the name that is... the bf is long long gone)!!!! :-D

    I have changed his name...to mav (really hope you dont mind mish!) afterall, the best dogs are called mav ;)

    Cash didnt really suit him, as soon as i started calling him mav it just clicked, so mav it is! :)
