Great pick! My girl is Bella, though. Might be confusing?

So, none of the names you listed plus one syllable. If not one syllable I would stop at two.. no longer.

So for a mastiff

Smalls
Biggie

From your list, I would shorten the name to one syllable and pick
Finn
Madd
Pax


I really like Finn. I also like Quinn, but I didn’t add it to my list because I’m kind of anti-one syllable names for dogs. (I hate the name Quincy.) I think two-syllable names are best for dogs, but my favorite male name is three syllables; hence, my struggle. 🙃


Np. I heard the name Bentley and liked it. What do you think, op?


I do like Bentley! I toyed with it for a little bit.

Yes! Remington is my favorite, but I didn’t want to skew the results. (Thanks PP!)


I like Remington but I also like Finnegan! I think a big, majestic-looking Mastiff with the friendly Finnegan name is a nice contrast.


Agree!

I also like how distinguished Remington sounds on a goofy lug of a dog.
