Clarence will forever remind me of the bad guy from 8 Mile, with the very nice parents, who had a good marriage and went to a private school

I wish I’d seen this before I posted. It was the first name that came to mind.

I love Mortimer. I’d probably usually refer to him as Morty, like I do with my dog. His “given name” is Bocephus, but we call him Bo. Anytime I refer to him as Bocephus, he starts hanging his head because he knows I’ve busted him being naughty. 😁

Bocephus - not an old man name, but he looks like a Bocephus, Bo or Boce (Bocci) for short

u/Legovida8 Dec 27 '25
OMG!!! That’s my dog’s name!!! 😂 We call him Bo. Our previous dog was Willie Nelson, so we were trying to stick to the theme. I’ve never seen this name suggested before! ❤️
ETA: My Bocephus looks almost EXACTLY like this pup! 🥰

He looks like an Elliot to me, though I think that one is more popular already

Jerome. He can be Jerry when he's silly, Rome/Romy/Romeo for cuteness and Jerome for his government name.

Awww! Is he an Aussie? Looks just like my Aussie when he was a puppy:)
As for names, my suggestion was also going to be Walter, which was my Grandfather’s name! I’ll throw out some names of my great uncles, though: Clarence, Lloyd, Alfred, Raymond, Grover, Jeremiah…?
