I got into a discussion the other night about pet names. My Stepdaughter came home from a friend's house that had like 15 cats. She was trying her best to say all the names, but kinda gave up after number 6. We all laughed because there is always a "Mittens" or an "Oreo." So this got me thinking, what if you wanted to prove to someone you were from Rockford, what could you name your pet?

Now I switched from cats to dogs for this, because even typing 15 cats made me sneeze...Let's name 9 new furry friend, to prove we are from Rockford...and GO:

Symbol - That red/orange thingy...It stands for Rockford or something. Great dog name, come here Symbol.

Burpee - Do dogs actually "burp?" Not sure about that, but naming your dog after a Rockford museum, that's SO Rockford.

815 - See, not that this is TOTALLY a Rockford thing, but Rockford thinks it is. It's on shirts, and events, and food items...Why not name your dog "815."

Rock - This is a great dog name. But make sure it's on a little pup and not a big scary one. That makes it even better.

Double T - Seriously, I'm surprised I haven't heard of a dog named "Double T!" Everyday when I come into work I always say, "Who's a good boy..."

Tinker - Now THIS has to be some giant Pitbull or some intense looking breed for sure. The bigger the better, "come here Tinker."
