Rhodesian Ridgeback Names
The Rhodesian Ridgeback is a large breed originating in South Africa. Also referred to as the African Lion Hound, these dogs were often used to hunt lions and other large game. Names related to lions both real and fictional are highly popular among the breed. A couple of lion themed name options include Simba (meaning lion in Swahili) and Tau (meaning lion in Tswana). Other options, like Decoy, can be taken from their role in distracting the lion while the hunter went in for the kill. Likewise, typical hunting related names like Hunter, Bullet, and Recoil provide a slew of other choices. True to the breed’s roots, many owners choose names like Hondo and Obi that are of African origin.

| Ridgy | Of course you can spell it a different way, but I work at a humane society and that's the only name our Rhodesian would respond to, we tried all of the male names on this list, but he wouldn't do it! |
