/ˈaɪsɪs/
Isis, a name with a rich history, is a pretty niche choice for a dog name, but I really like it.
The name hails from ancient Egypt, where Isis was a goddess of magic and healing. Isn't that just perfect for a dog who magically heals your bad days with a wagging tail?
Plus, fans of the TV show Downton Abbey will recognize Isis as the name of the Crawley family's loyal Labrador. That's a heck of a pop culture reference.
If your pup is a regal, loving, and slightly magical creature, Isis could be the perfect fit. Just be prepared for comments about how your dog walks like an Egyptian!
