Max, Rex, Kiki, Bob, Blackie, Boza, Boxy, Zorka?
Dogs can really only hear (understand) two (2) syllable. So, avoid long names.
After a soft consonant, use a strong vowels.
Examples:
The letter " f " is a soft consonant. An " e " to follow in the dog's name is not ideal, however an " a " would be well heard by the dog.
To the reverse, a strong consonant like an " r " can be followed by a soft vowel.
Don't be shy about doubling up on sounds: Kiki, Bobo, Yoyo...
Be careful with sounds that can't be heard.
Choose a name adapted to your dog taking into account its size, sex, character.
Male - A name with "male" or "masculine" consonants and vocal vowels (q, r, t, a ...)
Female - A softer dog name. A sound in " u "
Many people simply choose the most common or popular male and female dog names for their puppies like Bobby or Lucky or they name them after a very famous dog on movies or television such us: Oddie (Gradfield s canine friend, Lazzy (the famous Collie)Scooby (as in Scooby Doo) etc.
Some of the aspects we may consider when choosing a name for your dog can be:
Any physical characteristic the dog may have like spots, colors and so on.
Any personality characteristic. Let's say for instance if the dog is very lazy or very active, ...
A name that may have a special meaning for us because of the things we believe in or the thing we like the most in life or resembling the name of our favorite artist, singer, group, writer, composer, etc.
A name that may bring us some special memories as the name of the place in which we spent a great time or the name of our favorite canine character during our childhood.
We can also give our dog names such as Mister ... or ... the second.
Some people also look for specific information about names on your bog's breed.
Some others name their dogs in different languages according to their country or origin.
And some of them even name their dogs according to the brood. For example, if we are talking about our dog's first brood, then the puppies' name should begin with the later A, if it is the second brood, with the letter B and so on.
One important think to keep in mind on the dog naming process is that no matter what name you choose for your top dog, consider that it won't remain a puppy all its life, so don't name it "Tiny" when your dog is a Neapolitan Mastiff or "Sugar" when your dog is a Pit bull or Snowball if your dog is a Siberian Husky. So the only thing left to say here is good luck in your name searching, there is a lot to choose from.

yes you should get him a companion, mmm, there are many names, its little puppy and black is very cute, you can name him Kuro, japanese for black, if you prefer an english name you can call him Rover, i believe that each name would influence a creature or human, so the name is up to you, sometimes we cant cant feel what you fell abou the puppy, roll him over and give him a belly scratch...and i am sure you'll find a perfect name gud luck

I like Tarot - a bit mystical and the unknown - a bit wooo a bit waaaaayyyy.
I was going to name our dog that but she ended up being black and white, not jet black. A friend of mine has just got a Rottie and called it Grumble, which I think is absolutely gorgeous! I have also recently met a Porridge :-)

Adolf...( love German shepherds, they are great pets), sometimes how he acts is an easy way to name them. Like if he's a dumb dopey kind of dog...Dopey. Or if he makes a lot of puddles...get the point? I would think Sarge for (Sgt.)...German Shepherds are an authoritative type of dog and can be trained easily and are great watch dogs.

We have a black shepherd. We named him Kohle, the German spelling for coal.
