I just applied for my affix a couple of months ago, I only put 4 choices and they were the same, just spelt differently, I got my certificate back with my 1st choice it will be published in the April Kennel Gazzette.

You could use your cats names and have Ezmyr...I quite like that one

What about something a bit chinesey but with the sunny holidays included like Sunhuan or Sunkai, or Sunglo? I suppose it also depends on what other breeds you are thinking of owning.

So do I, think its a great suggestion, then you are not bogged down with to many letters/words, its catchy and would fit nicely in front of any names.

You could also try phoning the Kennel Club. If you ask nicely, they will check for you to see if you have a good chance of getting the affix you want. We got an affix granted, decided we didn't like it and changed to another one. I have to say, don't get you hopes up too much, the KC have funny idea of what you can and can't have In the end we just picked one that we knew we could have. We also didn't submit all the choices, we just spelt the affix differently each time. Make sure you pick something that is easily pronounced or easy to work out how it's meant to be pronounced. There is an affix in my breed that is ALWAYS pronounced wrong and the breeder gets really annoyed

I like Ezmyr though! Sounds nice, and it's a good length

Obviously i didn't know you lived on Lakeside! but I know Bosley, and it was the first thing that popped into my head.
I was also thinking of something to do with Bosley Cloud, but didn'e come up with anything that sounded half decent!

Nothing very exciting - I used have a friend who lived there many moons ago.

Well, if you go for that and get it, remember me when you make up your first champion

As Jackie said, its short enough to add more or less anything to, and I think its quite exotic and unusual

Oenoke, it is also my horse stud prefix, it was a place near where we lived in America, we lived on Ponus Ridge Road, Sagamore Ponus was the Chief of the Ponus tribe of Indians that had lived there, Oenoke was his son.
