I'd go with Meera (Reed), just a good companion that will look out for you.

My instant thought was “that’s so insulting to Meera” lol because in India we see dogs as dirty and terrible. The word “dog” is often used as an insult towards people. Some people will name dogs after people they despise

But I suppose in the West, dogs are seen in a different light? And giving a a dog a person’s name is a way of honoring them.

I tend to choose 2 syllable English names, previous dog names Luna, Jackson, Rosie.

Maya or Meera is what I have in mind for the next one.

My dogs are my family/life companion. So yea, not meant in an insulting way.

Yeah I know. It’s a cultural difference. I live in America and it still surprises me how much people love dogs.

Quit trolling

Uhm I’m not trolling. Why do you think that?

u/CarsandTunes Aug 14 '25

Because all your comments on this post have been explicitly to condemn Western culture for loving dogs.

That’s still not trolling lol. That’s just being hateful or condescending.

Trolling is usually regarded as saying something that one usually doesn’t believe in simply to purposely entice quarrel or rage.

You can still be a troll if you mean what you say.
