Of course she does, it is a great name. Whenever we have been
expecting to bring home a puppy I would spend hours pouring over the books that
list endless choices of names, it would become an obsession to get the
right name, but I almost always went for people names, I am
obviously not very imaginative :o)

We picked the name Ombre blindly from
French translation of the world "shadow" (and in our total ignorance of
the French language.) It is commonly assumed that we meant the Spanish
word "hombre", and we pronounce it that way. Once we finally found
someone who could pronounce Ombre in proper French, we found that it strains
our Midwestern mouth muscles to say it correctly. :)
Bottom line is: She doesn't
care a bit and comes galloping across the yard no matter how we pronounce
her name. :)
