Why "Bob"?

I'm being asked, "Why 'Bob' as a puppy name, even for a girl?" Many of you already know, but I am a BIG Columbus Blue Jackets fan. The CBJ are Columbus' NHL team. Yes, now you know, I love hockey.  I decided early on that a boy puppy in this litter would be "Bob", for our wonderful new goalie, Sergei Bobrovksy, known as, "Bob".

This season with the CBJ was a downer in many ways, but our bright spot was Bob! He was an NHL star of the game 4 times this season (which because of the strike was a very short season) and  won the 2013 Vezina Trophy, for Best Goaltender of the year, as determined by the NHL General Managers.

So, that's why "Bob" as a name, but why for a girl too? Just because I like the name and have only one puppy coming! <g> Besides, there are worse monikers for a pup to start off with than "BOB".
