After my first standard about 20 years ago I have paid attention to standard poodle names - or perhaps more to the point, their owners who bestow the names. Here are some poodle names I can recall:
.
Murrey, Alex, Zelda, Brubeck, Raquel, Nelson, Houdini, Ravel, Fiona, Omar, Schubert, and others of some uniqueness. No "Spot" or "Scooter" or "Lady." Names for poodles seem to be well thought out and seldom seem to be call-names.
.
A friend of mine named his standard puppy "Napoleon" because he was a "little tyrant." When Markus was a small pup I called him "ENRON" because he could shred paper so quickly/

Some of the really cute names I recall from my youth...

Bibelots Tall, Dark and Handsome- Tramp

Bibelot`s Clean as a Whistle- Suds

Cherod That`s My Number- Bingo

Bibelot`s Funtastic of Cherod- Funny

Now with everyone needing their kennel name on a dog, it really shortens what you can do. I co-own a boy whose name is just all three kennels involved with him- Harmony Mtns Silken Arreau. That is all we had room for!!

Markus's grampa was a Bibelot sire. His mom is a Bibelot gray. Susan F has some gorgeous standards.

I have always thought standards deserve really strong names ;D it makes me smile to see them with gorgeous names.

Oh, indeed!!! I have one living with me. I inherited him when my Mom died. His name is Bibelot Cherod Tinsmith. He is quite a well known fella with pups all over the world.

Is this the dog named "Tin" ??? As I recall Markus's gramp was partly owned by gentleman named Mort G. I can't recall his call-name at the moment.
.
Bibelot is a famous kennel name for those who might be lurking here.

His name is Thinker...Tin was a girl. I would say Bibelot is the premier name in Silvers.

Now I remember. Markus's granpa had the call-name "Spencer." Maybe my next standard will have that name. A classy name.
