The Cockapoo is a Cocker Spaniel Poodle mix and is both one of the most established hybrid dog breeds and also one of the most popular. These adorable pups are so friendly and loving the breed even took top honors as the Happiest Dog. But that probably won’t surprise you at all if you have any experience with these precious pups. So where can you go to find a list of potential Cockapoo names worthy of such an adorable, lovable dog? Well, we think that right here is a great place to start.
Choosing Cockapoo Puppy Names
If the Cockapoo dog breed is cute as an adult, this dog is even cuter as a puppy. Although it is true that your puppy won’t stay little for long. So good names for a cockapoo will need to suit your pup when they are a fully fledged adult. For this reason, we always recommend choosing a Cockapoo name your puppy can grow into—as well as a name you will enjoy using several times a day and out loud at the local dog park.
You may also want to steer clear of naming ideas that sound too similar to the commands you want your new pup to learn. Names that rhyme with “no,” “sit,” “stay,” “stop,” “fetch” and similar might be quite confusing to your puppy at first.
And if you do want to name your new pooch after a family member or friend, common sense suggests running the idea by that person first just to make sure they feel as honored by your idea as you hope they will be. Beyond these simple puppy naming tips, the sky is the limit for your Cockapoo naming creativity.

Colorful Cockapoo Names
Cockapoos come in a vast range of colors. Starting with solid colors where the dog is just a single color all over, and including parti colors, where the coat is in distinctive patches of such as black and white, or brown and white cockapoo. Then moving on to different types of color mix such as merle or dapple, roan or speckled and including the phantom cockapoo where the coat color pattern is similar to a Rottweiler with different coloring on the eyebrows, chin, chest and paws.
Your Cockapoo puppy’s solid coat color can span the gamut from palest champagne to inky midnight black. To give you even more naming inspiration, we’ll start by focusing on name ideas based on four of the most popular Cockapoo coat colors: black, chocolate brown, apricot and cream.
