remembered the Ray Davies & the Kinks song - Lola - and she became Lola Cherri Cola. On reflection - listening to the lyrics in great detail - I think Lola was a Lady Boy 
I think you might be right
Before she arrived Wherry was going to be Pingo or Sweep but neither fit. Knowing so many dogs posed a problem as so many names were taken (Peanut, Pickle (sorry Nic, I love it), Twix, Coco etc) Wherry, and i've told thiks before but, is that because it's a very Norfolk thing. A kind of native boat and a beer. When she arrived she looked like a pint of Guiness, brown with a creamy white puff but there was already a Guiness & Murphy amongst friends, Gunnie's Mum wants to call her daughter Stella so that was a no go so we went to the pub to have a think about it and there it's was 'Norfolk's finest Wherry'. I'd usually avoid naming an animal after a beer, but we're by no means drunkards or louts (well, most of the time
) and it fit her well.
Lots of people hate it but we love it and she suits it down to the ground.
If we have another liver it will be called, if it fits, Elbie, (from LB from Little bear) which Wherry nearly was and I still call her little bear sometimes when she is as her cutest.
Should we ever get a boy, though it's very unlikely, it'll have to be called Nelson, another Norfolk thing and a beer by the same brewery. We have since become friends with the daughter of the brewery owner who thinks it's very cool
and our local rugby club is sponsered by it, I'm trying to get her to be a mascott for either
Our Poppy was so called because she was a
red setter though apparantly my brother and me wanted to call her Madonna
Coco was such because she had markings like a clown as a pup and she was a lady like Coco Chanel.
