Thinking of naming one dog Olive, what might pair well? Looking for Milo and Otis vibes.
Popeye?
Also Brutus
This is the one, @Anissem@lemmy.ml
Martini
You could call it marty!
That’s just really funny to me to make a diminutive out of a diminutive. Martini already means Marty. Both Martinez and Martin, which they are respectfully diminutives of come from the Latin Martinus for a child dedicated to the god Mars.
You could use Marti as a nickname.
Bonus points if the dog is teeny. Mar-teeny
Pimento
oh yeah, he spend the last 12 years undercover in the shelter
Watch out for the night screams though.
Pickle
Olive and Pickle sound like crude bathroom signs.
Awww I love this one
Martini
Oyl.
It’s a male dog so how about Doyle?
Martini.
I was going to say Yiu, as in “Olive you” (I love you), but “you” comes up way to much in regular language, would confuse the poor dog.

Perfect! A lot of these work together but only work as a pair. This one stands alone as well.
Garden is a good dog’s name
Came here, looking for that answer.
Agreed!
Vermouth
Popeye!
Muhammad
I’m losing it in the hospital corridor lmao
Martini. Marti for short, which has the benefit of being ungendered.
You could do Olive and Ollie for that sweet alliteration.
Alternatively, Olive and Chives is pretty good too.
Basil
…the other reindeer
Olive! Olive!
?
Ok I’ve only seen this movie once, but I remember a part where one of the picasso-ey background characters cheers olive on while doing this weird thing with his hands
Oh, different reference. I was playing off the Christmas carol. Olive the other reindeer…
It’s a movie too: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0227173/
