While getting a new dog is exciting, deciding on a name can be a challenge, so getting some inspiration can help make the task of naming your poodle a little bit easier. Poodles are considered to be among the most intelligent of all dog breeds, and they also happen to make ideal family pets because of their loyal, protective nature and sociable personalities, which you can use to help inspire your new poodle's name! What's great about naming poodles is that they're associated with countries like France (where they're an incredibly popular choice for pet) and Germany (where they originated)—not to mention their unique coat that comes in various colors—so the name options are seemingly endless. Here are 70 potential poodle names you might want to consider if you're bringing home one of these strong yet sophisticated dogs.
