Introduction

Arabic Dog names are quite popular among people who own dogs of Arabian origin. Many dogs of Arabic origin have been around for a very long time, such as the Saluki. The Saluki is the epitome of beauty and grace. The breed has been around for thousands of years and was bred in the Middle East to hunt gazelle and other large animals. Another popular dog from Arabic countries is the Canaan dog. This dog used to guard and herd for the Israel people in ancient times. Many dogs from Arabic countries are also now bred in other countries, including the US.

Arabic Dog Name Considerations

If you have decided to get a Saluki, Canaan, or another dog of Arabic origin, you may wish to give your dog an Arabic name. There are many names of females and males, or even neutral names, of this origin. You can research the meaning of the name and decide that way, as well. 

Another idea for naming your dog is to take a closer look at the appearance and personality. Surely there is a striking and unique characteristic that really gets your and others' attention. If so, you can look that word up (the adjective) and find a name that has the meaning of that descriptor.

Many Arabic dogs were and still are solely used for hunting or guarding the flock. A hunting name or a guardian name may be chosen. Theron is a male name meaning hunter in Greek, and an African female name meaning hunter is Kacela. 

Of course, you know your dog better than anyone. If you just got your new companion, be sure to get to know the personality before you choose the name. With the help of research, family and friends, and even just pure instinct, you will come up with an ideal name before you know it!
