Louie, a name fit for canine royalty! It's a nod to the 18 French kings who ruled with the same name, so your pup will feel like a monarch in his dog park kingdom. Plus, it's a wink to pop culture icons like Louie Armstrong, whose smooth jazz could match your dog's cool demeanor. And let's not forget Louie the Duck from Disney, adding a dash of humor because, let's face it, our Louie might be more of a quacker than a barker. So, if you want a name that's regal, cool, and a tad goofy, Louie is the perfect pick!
