Luigi Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Pascal! (although not a saint name) True, Pascal is not a saint. But the name is derived from the same root as Easter - Paques in French, Pasquale in Italian, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) I know you've already named the dog, so I should have posted this earlier, but... My aunt who is a nun lived at one convent for a while where they had a very large dog. He barked incessantly at strangers - and, of course, lots of strangers came to visit. So he was always barking, and the nuns were always shushing him ineffectively by calling his name repeatedly, "Gubbio! Gubbio!" after the town where St. Francis tamed a wolf that had been terrorizing the livestock and people. It seemed appropriate for this particular dog.
