101 Of The Greatest Dog Names For Fans, Geeks, And Nerds
If you’re a geek, you’re part of a subculture that stakes its identity on the performative knowing of things. Especially weird things.
With all the comic book franchise movies and the release of a whole new wave of Star Wars movies, now is the perfect time for geeks to add a dog to the family (and/or starship)! But what will you name the newest addition to your enclave of eccentrics?
It’s a big decision, but there’s no need to call a meeting of the Galactic Senate (no one has the time for that); BarkPost has got you covered! We’ve surveyed the quadrant for the nerdiest nom de chiens, and we’re open-sourcing it here for you.
