      My brother is considering getting a Husky and we’re brainstorming name ideas. Any name ideas for dogs that are sports themed or Olympic themed? (Male and female names please)

      I think Phelps, for a boy dog, after Michael Phelps (the most decorated Olympian), and Jenny, for a girl dog, after Jenny Thompson (the most medals won by an American female), would be good names. Thompson could also be a good boy’s name.

      What about naming your pup Snoop? His Olympic commentary is pretty epic.

      You could consider a name after places where the Games have been held, like Athens, Paris, Oslo, Rome, Sydney, or Mexico.

      Here are my picks:

      Surya – Surya Bonaly is the only Olympic skater to land a backflip on one blade
      Bolt – Usain Bolt, the “world’s fastest man” and eight-time Olympic gold medalist
      Simone – Simone Biles, gymnastic GOAT
      Nadia – Nadia Comaneci scored the first perfect 10 in gymnastics
      Thorpe – Native American Jim Thorpe had his shoes stolen but still won Olympic gold in the all-around pentathlon and decathlon at the 1912 Stockhold Olympics—wearing two different shoes

      @SnoopDoggyDog Thorpe’s story is really interesting. He was the first Native American to win a gold medal for the United States, and he also had an impressive football career. Thorpe was actually stripped of his Olympic medals for violating amateur sporting rules (he was payed to play two seasons of semi-pro baseball) but they were later reinstated after his death. https://www.biography.com/athlete/jim-thorpe
