A Spanking Good Name for My Husband Contest







 
Name My Husband
 
So after a year, I still haven't come up with a name for my husband. Seriously, used all my favorite boys names on our four boys. PK suggested that I have a contest to find my husband a name.
What a great idea.

And there will be a prize for the winning name!!!!

A couple of things.......

When I came up with the name Blondie, it wasn't because of Blondie and Dagwood.




Yes, I have blonde hair, so it wasn't too much of a stretch to think up the name.


But the movie Legally Blonde one and two are two of my favorite movies but I couldn't remember her name when I was trying to come up with my blogname. Yes, I remember now, her name is El.

 
 
My husband could be twins with this man:

Well there was a time I was really young and cute, like the blonde above. But now I have an extra twenty-five pounds and a lot more wrinkles.
 
 
 
 
 The names of Barbie and Ken were already taken, which is another duo that people use to say we looked like. Blehhh 
 
 
 
 
 
This has always been my logo. Why? Well before we even knew about DD or even about blogging, my husband thought that I should get this as a tattoo. So it seemed to fit.
 
 

 And Lola can be so naughty sometimes.

While Bugs is always a gentleman..............

 
 
 
Everybody can enter. Let me know what you think would be a good name for my guy. Then I can narrow it down and I will let my blog friends decide by vote.
 
Prize??? Did you think I forgot. This is the best part. My friend Pooky, also known as Patty Devlin, is donating one of her books to the winner.
 
 
 
So help me name my husband. Be creative, have some fun. He has a great personality. And I am really getting tired of always calling him "my husband.
 
 
I really do love my cowboy.

  1. Well, there's always Cowboy...lol... I work with a bunch of them and they like that mode of address. There are a couple of Cowboy names that tend to come to mind: Stetson, Winchester, Maverick, Remington and Colt. Can't go wrong with place names either: Dallas or Austin. Have fun choosing!

    1. Great names! And just Cowboy is good too. Thanks

    2. As my husband were going through the names, I mentioned that I liked Maverick. Being the funny man that he is, he replied that he always liked Goose better. As in reference to the movie Top Gun. Lol

  2. Patty is donating the book...how about Ty??

    Or Sam Elliot?? :)

    1. I like that idea. Ty. Especially since she named Blondie's Paddle shop in her book. And it is a very short name. I could have done H (for husband) but Emi took that.

  3. I always assumed you chose Blondie after the comic strip, so I vote for Dagwood, maybe shortened to Dag to give it that 21st century feel.

    Hugs,

    1. No not Blondie and Dagwood. What's funny is that I use to hate being called Blondie when I was little. Hated when people asked me where I got my blonde hair from (duh, from my head), and even today when they ask me if I color my hair. Like it is any of their business, or they ask my towhead where he got his blonde hair from as I am standing next to him. How rude! Lol
      And then of course there is the blonde jokes, CAT......

    2. Well my funny man thought that Jag was better than Dag. Don't know where he gets his personality. Love the man, but maybe he should keep his day job and not go on the road with his comedic talent.

      Delete
  4. I was going to suggest Dagwood because of the Blondie moniker.
    Since your logo (possible tattoo?) has Bugs in it and you seemed to like it... Bugs or Bugsy.

    1. Forgot to mention combining the two as Bugswood.
      You guys sell paddles, thought getting "wood" in the name would help :)

      Delete
    2. Bugswood, lol, I like that.

      Delete
    3. FYI - in the past, my old friend Sarah, use to call my husband Mr. B. At first it was short for Mr. Blondie, then for Bugs Bunny. When I started thinking about giving him a name on my blog, it was right about the time I met you. Since you were already MrBB, Mr B didn't sound right.

  5. well since you referenced Legally Blonde (LOVE RESSE WITHERSPOON) I am going to say Luke, or Emmett, for the character she falls in love with and/or the person who plays him :)

    1. Wasn't her name Like Elle Wood or was that the Blues Brother?

    2. You're right ! I didn't think about that! Her name was Elle Woods!

  6. How about Woody or Weston or the greatest of cowboy film stars, Duke.

    Happy for your niners. Sadly, my team didn't make it so we won't be meeting in the super bowl.

    1. This is going to interesting to see what he chooses. Sorry that your team is out of the playoffs. I think that it would be awesome if the SG 49ers won the Superbowl since the SF Giants just won the World Series. Maybe it will help our economy out here.

  7. How about Malone....I am being silly, I thought about Bugsy Malone. I am not even sure I spelled it correctly! lol

    1. I like the name Malone. That is a great name. Hubby should be deciding this name thing soon.

  8. Too cute! Funny, playful lil brat (now Brooke!) just asked her readers to help name her. I love the idea above of Luke or Emmett, that would be fun. I'm kind of missing the cultural references above (call me TV illiterate or something!) but for some reason the name "Trent" is sticking in my head and I have no idea why, other than, he just sounds like a Trent to me.

    I'm excited to see which name you end up with!

    1. Trent, hmmmmm. He might like that. We will have to wait and see.

  9. I like Mr. BB's hybrid, actually.

    If you go with the cowboy theme, Ranger is kind of a hot name. :)

    1. Mr. BB is creative. Ranger is a good cowboy name.

  10. This is fun, Blondie. I will be excited to see what the final result will be! I Luke or Emmett as mentioned above. But, whatever you choose, we will like it because it will be what you decide represents him the most:) Hugs.

    1. You are putting a lot of faith in me...... I have no idea what to name him. He is so his real name. And he has always been so particular about naming our children. I wish I was creative or daring enough to think of something.

      Delete
  11. I have no ideas! But great idea. My husband has always been my "lovable ogre" and he's always called me Princess, which is how he became my ogre. Long before DH.

    I sure can think of some other names for him sometimes lol...

    Can't wait to see your winning name. Maybe I'll come back if I think of anything :)

    1. Come on Stormy, you are so creative you can think up a name. We don't really have nicknames for each other. Sometimes I call him Babe but I don't think he would like that to be his name on my blog.

  12. I like BB's hybrid too. I was going to suggest Bugs or Bugsy

  13. Yay for new names, lol. I love the idea of Emmett, like a couple have mentioned. I also love Maverick, and see someone mentioned that one as well. Hmm, have to think of one no one has mentioned yet. How about Dallas, Tucker, or one I really like, Grayson? They all sound like strong cowboy names to me!

    1. I love your new name. No more calling you Brat.
      Those are some good names. Very solid cowboy names.

  14. True Story... I once worked with a woman named Barbie who married a guy named Ken! I couldn't wrap my head around it then or now!

    If you go with a cowboy name I like Duke. Taking a completely different approach, you could name him after one of my favorite TV characters, so in control, Gibbs from NCIS.

    You do have some great suggestions. Have fun picking!

    1. Those are good names. Gibbs is definitely different. Wonder if my husband will like it. Barbie and Ken? I have never met anyone named Barbie.

  15. I don't have a clue, but I sure had fun reading everyone's ideas! Can't wait to hear what you decide to pick Blondie.

    3. I watched your video clip and laughed. Then the show came on yesterday, and I asked the kids about it. They said this show was great. Personally, not really sure if I liked it. But I now know who Sheldon is. He is absolutely not a Sheldon. Lol

  19. I don't know, Blondie. I still haven't come up with a name for my husband either. By the time you get to be my age, 53, you know so many people. Every name I came up with, reminds me of someone else, and for me that's just "Ewwwww". I don't even want it to remind me of a character in a movie, book, or television. Some names even remind me of the names people I know have given their pets. My husband's name fits him so well, I just have a hard time deciding. I wish you well on this, because I have struggled also. God bless you and yours, Belle L.

    1. I am totally in agreement with you Belle. I am not much younger than you and have been with him for over 25 years so I have a hard time thinking about calling him anything but his name. And so true about every name reminding me of someone we know. Hopefully he will like one of the names mentioned and we will have a winner.

  20. Ok- I am always late to the party... I think he should have the ultimate spanking cowboy name-

    Tanner-

    And I am afraid Dev just bought one of your paddles last night. If he did, Can you ship it to the wrong address?

    Like perhaps you could send it to Rogue. I think she knows just what to do with them ;)

    2. I've been meaning to order a paddle... :D

    3. I am not going to comment on the paddle. My husband told me to inform all of my non spanko friends that he is the one that everyone should "not like" if a paddle is ordered.

  22. Kinda silly but in Tiny Toons "Buster" was Babs counter part. Babs like to annoy Buster who is more street smart, calm and often told Babs to basically chill out and cut out her nonsense... "rope it in".

    1. Finally someone recognized Matt Dillon. I have always wanted to name him that but I am letting him choose his blogland name. And he really does look soooo much like the actor, it is almost kind of creepy.

  24. Hi Blondie. I think I like ‘Duke’. It means leader and of course there was no greater spanking cowboy than the Duke himself :)
