Any help with names?

I am going to register my Dalmatian pup with the Kennel Club Activity Register and need to pick a name for him, but I don't know where to start!

His 'home' name is Cooper, he is a rescue so I don't know Sire or Dam.

I hopeless at this, I'm sure someone will be along in a minute with some better ideas.

Here are the rules on the name...
Guidelines for Naming Dogs (please read carefully)
• A name must consist of more than one word but not exceed 24 letters (including Kennel Name)
• A name which conflicts with an approved current Kennel Name granted to another person will not be accepted
• A registered name cannot be repeated on the Activity Register
• The surname of the breeder/current owner is not acceptable
• A word cannot be repeated when applying to register more than one dog
• If a Kennel Name is to be used, the Kennel Name must appear as the first word in the name if named by the breeder. If you are not the breeder of the dog, or the breeder of both the parents, the Kennel Name must appear as the last word of the name
• Numbers in figures and initials are not acceptable. Abbreviations may be disallowed
• Canine terms are not permissible e.g. ‘dog’, ‘bitch’, ‘kennel’, ‘champion’, ‘Crufts’ and specific names of breeds
How about....
Cooper Trooper
Cooper Duper
Super Cooper
Super Duper Cooper

Just been to have a play with my horses and had a thought.

He will be paired with my Appaloosa who's name is Ffanci Free, so I would like to have Cooper as footloose, but I want a different way of spelling it and I need another word as well?

I have my own sort of prefix I use (not registered), would that be allowed to be used? I could put it at the end but it would look/sound a bit odd, so it really needs to go before footloose.

If you use your Kinda Affix before Footloose that would be two words & should be ok!

I've had a play around and think I will be spelling it in a similar way to my horses, so Ffootloose, as he did come from Wales. Still thinking of something else to put with it though, I usually use Wyrd (fate) but it just sounds odd to me.
