Certainly.
Shame it's been erased from the film in most instances in my humble opinion, you can't wash away history, good or bad.

I agree, we can’t erase history, we learn from it.

the dogs i have had and have ? They all get one syllable names like Kye, Brock, Bow, etc Sid over Sidney if you like . Certain dogs names need thought I knew a family where the kids called their Black dog " Blacky" Totally innocently , very bad move though that

 

[JTO]

Choose a name with 'S' or soft 'c'. A bit higher pitched for a dog's hearing.

Defo one syllable is the way, far better “come here Fenn, rather than Jesus Christ come here Fenton…”, and nothing that could be misheard as a command. I quite like Sid, being a child of the 70s, but that would be a complete nightmare for training and command.
