I'm needing a proper survivor/strong as fuck name.

(The dog was a puppy, and didn't leave any puncture wounds. Just some pneumo thorocia, a lot of internal bruising, and a possible broken or bruised rib. She is currently planted firmly next to my leg on the couch with a hospital tent waiting for her when I go to sleep.)

Her name is furiousa!

Ok my first suggestion got shot down. Here's my next best (serious) suggestion.

Weaver.

edit: yes I went with that on purpose instead of Ripley because I have too many friends that named their animals Ripley.

If we're going with an Aliens vibe, why not choose Newt? Small, disheveled, survivor type...?

Glad I checked the thread a few minutes after my last comment. I think it's up between newt&randy.

Another excellent suggestion.

I'm confused and just asking. Is this an aliens reference when Ripley took over a loader to fuck up the queen alien in number two?

Sorry I'm on mobile (boost) and can't see a good resolution image.

Yeah, Ripley being the ultimate survivor (until she wasn't, spoiler alert), but I know so many people that named their pet Ripley I felt Weaver was a better choice.

No worries homie! She will definitely be not named Ripley. Although "black goo" ain't out the question with how she is acting like Velcro with my ear.
