How did you pick your kennel name?

I know I'm a ways off from needing it, but whenever I get bored, I start wondering what my kennel name is going to be whenever I get around to starting one. I can never think of anything good! So I figured I'd take a pole.

What is the name of your kennel? What does it translate to (if applicable)? Where did you get the name from?

I thought if I hear stories of other people's experiences, I might get inspired myself!

[GalomyOak]

My name came from the branch of the creek that runs behind my house (more of a stream/swamp really!) - Galomy Creek, and the big oak that faces my house. I like the symbolism of oak trees. I liked the sound, it doesn't have the cheesy factor, and it's unique.

[Tuky]

"La manada de Tuky" ("The herd of Tuky" )... not very original, but it is a name that suggests they are mine, I was advised that the name of the kennel were something that I also represent myself and my dogs in my area (not just the wolfdog) are known as "Tuky dogs" ... so it was easy to decide as a group saw this as united as heterogeneous

I did not choose it . I wrote my ideas about name of my kennel to ČMKU (czech dog union). There was 5 nice names (like Egerland,....) and 6. was my last idea- Od Úhoště. And they choosed this last name!
So: Úhošt (read like uuhoscht) is basalt table mountain near of my city. It is rarity, there is on the top of mountain much kinds of bush plants, it is place not typicle for my area.
You can translate name of my kennel "Od Úhoště" like "from mountain Uhost".

Casa del Mango - The House of Mango.

Mango was my wife's first Belgian malinois. We had a couple others (she thought of Salt Creek from the brackash waters around the New Jersey coast and Spitfire (our collie is Orion's Spitfire MacLeod)) but after Mango passed she went with Casa del Mango.
