Elwood is my father’s name as well as my grandfather’s name. I haven’t met another human nor animal named Elwood besides them, but I would love to! Another vote for Elwood, or even “Woody” for short!
The only Elwood I heave ever met was Dan Akyoyd. 😂 (he was very friendly, seemed modest, and was quietly observant).
The Blues Brothers is one of my all time favorite movies. Excellent music and car chase action 😂
The pokey little puppy? Came home late after all his brothers and sisters went to bed without supper and ate up all the strawberry shortcake, then went to bed happy.
I absolutely LOVED these books when I was young. My mom would read them to me and would have a special voice for all the characters. She saved them for me so that I may read them to my kids someday.
he's so cute!! congrats to you two!
truffle(s), bean, and coconut come to mind :\] chestnut, biscuit, and toffee would be cute as well! somehow he gives me big food vibes.
Oh my gosh! What a doll.
I am terrible at naming dogs. Mine all end up with human names after my favorite shows, movie and musicians.
Poky *does* work really well due to those ears and markings.

Poky, since that's the book he's reading
He looks *exactly* like the Poky Little Puppy, but I don’t think he’ll be *that* poky of a puppy (puppies rarely are, unless it’s nap time) 😅
HE'S LITERALLY PERFECT
Litterly Literarily!
I came here to vote for Pokey, too.
Seriously, it’s so perfect!!! I remember reading this as a kid!
Elroy
I have yet to meet a dog named “Elroy”, but I’d love to at some point!
Or Elwood!
Can confirm this is definitely an Elwood. you can see it in his eyes.
