Oh wow, thanks guys!

How could I forget Estel? Or Gandalf for that matter?!

Right now we're thinking that the possible third dog will be a guard-dog. I grew up with a female Doberman as my friend and protector, and she saved my mother's life twice, so the connection is strong there. A Doberman named Estel might be perfect.

If I go the German Shepherd route, however, Gandalf would be a great name.

Also, Gamgee, Milo, Modol (thanks, F!), Tulkas, etc... Well, I could go on, but this thread is brimming with good suggestions.

Of course, Huan is a wonderful name for a dog.

Have you guys heard about the monks of New Skete? ? They tend to give their dogs Tolkien names, only not names I would like:

Mordor's Winter, for example. What's up with that?
