Hi, My dog is named Morgan and she is the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. She is so nice and is a blond chihuahua with big black eyes. I would definitely recommend naming your dog Morgan as it is a cute name for a female dog and it stands out. Especially because I never really heard anyone else name their dog this.
