 |  |  |  | The Doberman is a German breed, so we wanted a German-sounding female name. I liked Lorelei a lot, but my fiance didn't. He wanted something from the Nibelungenlied, and I really did not. Can you imagine saying "Kreinhild" over and over again during the course of your day? I couldn't. Then my fiance remembered a girl who had been in his high school whose name was Elka, and that really appealed to me. It's short and sharp to say, and evokes the legginess that my dog has. |  |  |  |  |
