Dog names as beautiful as our dogs.

Thanks to @clive for linking to an article on medieval dog names. A selection:

Liȝtfote, Quycke, Stepfaste, Amyable, Braynesike, Beawte, Cherefull, Frebodye, Jolye, Mery, Plesaunce, Capteyne, Chambirleyne, Jeester, Beste-of-all, Boy, Felowe, Goodynowȝe, Pretyman, Pretiboy, Conquerour, Hardynowgh, Havegoodday, Makehitgood.

"Beste-of-all" is the one that I may actually adopt for my Castorp, the Whippet.
