Tips for choosing a name

• Short names with one or two syllables are easy to call out and easy to recognize.
• Avoid names that sound like common cues, such as “Kit” and “sit” or “Bo” and “no”.
• Say it out loud a few times, including the way you’d call it across a park.
• Make sure everyone in the home uses the same name.
