I'm still trying to come up with a registered name for Brenna. I'm becoming an authority on Celtic Gods and Goddess along with Celtic Mythology. fie
I'm still not finding anything that grabs me. The main problem is the Kennel name is so blasted long! Here are some ideas so far. Tell me what you think, and please feel free to throw any ideas you might have out. I would love to fit Morgana in there somewhere since it is a powerful name and she often took the for of a raven but can't figure out how to do it.
"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Magikal Celt"
"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Magik"
"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Raven Maiden" Brenna mean Raven Maiden in Celtic but it doesn't actually have Celtic in the name.
"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Princess" This is the coowners choice and I like it but it isn't very original.
"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Noir" Thank you for this one Bari. I really like it but it doesn't flow as well as I would like.
Any input would be appreciated. I'm really having trouble with this. Right now I'm leaning toward Celtic Magik I have to check with my Wikken friend to make sure that is a kosher thing to do though.

Yowzer, that is quite the mouthful at the beginning...Listed above my choice would be "O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Magik"

I don't know if they have to tie in with the meaning of Brenna or just be celtic....Here are a few different ideas tossed into the mix smile


"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Trinity"
"The Celtic Trinity

The trinity and the shamrock were symbols that had great significance to the Celts. The myth of St. Patrick using the shamrock to preach the gospel of Christianity by comparing its three leaves with the Father, the Son and the holy spirit, was probably derived from the Celtic metaphor of the shamrock representing a "trust in your soul," "belief in your heart" and "faith in your mind." This trinity forms the basis of Celtic spiritual beliefs."



There are some interesting meanings to the Celtic Symbols that may help you choose a name that you want to relate to Brenna.

"O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic( Or Gaelic)Triskelion"
And Triskelion is also known by a few other names, Triskele, Triscele

You can google ad find out more of the meaning..but since Brenna is into Agility, part of it represents competition and running or motion.

* I love the celtic knots and symbols love *

Another possibilty....When was she born? here is a list of celtic tree astrology signs-Zodiac of the Druids
http://www.whats-your-sign.com/celtic-tree-astrology.html

Have fun, and let us know what name you end up with smile

That's so tough, especially with the long kennel name. Since Brenna means princess, how about something like

O-Tahn-Agon Cinema As You Wish (from the Princess Bride)
O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Enchanted
O-Tahn-Agon Cinema I Want It All

Something along the princess lines. Personally, I like As You Wish and have been thinking about that should have been Whisper's registered name. lol

You can also use reign and some puns thereof.

Before the Reign
After the Reign
Reign of Fire
Black Reign
Reign's Magik Princess

Do you like The Who? Love Reign O'er Me. That might go with The Mighty Quinn?

Well I guess Magic and Magik are already being used to death with the Terv's Who knew? Just when you think you have an original thought.
Remember I'm supposed to try and fit Celtic in there someplace too. Brenna actually means Raven Maiden. Although I really like "As you wish" too.I need to file that for the next pup. (Great Sheltie princess name ;))
My next thought was "O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Spellbinder" or Celtic charm kind of tying in with Kim's Trinity theme.

I still like Celtic Noir, but Celtic Charm has a nice feel to it too. I also like Raven Maiden.

Not that I'm suggesting it for Brenna but what would happen if you sent in the form with the registered name as "Brenna the Terv"? Would you be labeled an anarchist owner? lol Ruffysdad

Short, simple, and to the point. lol
It kind of has a ring to it, similar to Attila the Hun. shocked Is that good or bad? wink

I really like both the Celtic Charm & the Celtic Spellbinder. They have a mysterious air about them. Not to mention, i would imagine Brenna is quite the charmer and has managed to put you under her spell a time or two! smile

It looks like we have a winner with "O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Celtic Charm". The coowner made the point that when Brenna has her litter (I don't even want to think about that) they can be the charm litter. "O-Tahn-Agon Cinema Brenna the Terv" was a close second. wink Actually Attila the Hun isn't far off, just ask my other dogs. Thanks again for all your suggestions. This was a tough one. Now that we are done I don't know what I'll do to occupy my spare time. lol

Great job. It's so hard when the kennel has so many requirements. You got the right ring to it.
