Dog Names Inspired by Geographical Terms

Just in case you’re not up on your geography terminology, I’ve added very brief definitions next to each one.
Also, some of these names are fairly gender-neutral, so don’t feel locked into choosing a male name for a boy dog or a female name for a girl dog.
Male Dog Names from Geography Terminology
- Ash (fragments of lava)
- Atlas (collection of maps)
- Bay (part of sea within the shoreline)
- Chinook (warm dry wind in the Rockies)
- Col (lowest point on a mountain ridge
- Fen (a type of wetland)
- Firth (coastal inlet)
- Glen (valley)
- Hamlet (small town)
- Horst (raised block of earth crust)
- Piedmont (region formed at the base of a mountain)
Female Dog Names from Geography Terminology
- Arête (sharp, narrow mountain ridge)
- Ayre (a shingle beach in Scotland)
- Delta (land at the mouth of a river)
- Coulee ( dry canyon made by Pleistocene floods)
- Esker (winding ridge of sand)
- Lahar (mudflow)
- Magma (molten rock)
- Mesa (flat-topped hill or mountain)
- Moraine (rocks & soiled carried by a glacier)

While these would all make cute names, I personally love Fen for a boy and Ayre for a girl!
