Anne of Green Gables Dog Name Considerations

When narrowing down which of the characters you should name your next fur ball after, there are some things you should consider. First off, remember that you aren't limited to the original Anne of Green Gables book. Ms. Montgomery went on to write 8 more stories about the many adventures of Anne Shirley. Delve back in and discover your favorite characters to get those creative naming juices flowing.

The next item on your itinerary is to really observe your new pupper. To they have long dark locks like Diana? Or are they an old, wise rescue whose face screams "Matthew"? Personal appearance of the book's characters can help you identify who would look the most like your pooch if they were transformed into a human. 

Another task you can try is to watch out for your woofer's quirks. What about their personality is uniquely them? Use these traits to identify matching profiles from the story. Josie would make a perfect name for the more challenging furry friend while Gil would suit a sweet but mischievous soul. 

No matter what you end up settling on, be sure to tell anyone who asks just where you got your doggo's titles from. You could be introducing them to their next favorite book series!
