My German Shepherd pup is called Mishka. I didn’t even look the name up. I was going to call my pup “Mush” but as she’s a female I altered it to Mishka and it’s a lovely name!

I remembered the famous YouTube husky Mishka who is known for her talking, which is why compared to other dogs, huskies instead talk and well as howling, jabbering, groaning, and grumbling.
