Lightbulb OT - creative minds.. Help me name..

My new puppy.
Here's the tricky part, the puppy is in the process of being registered with a kennel club and needs a registered name. This isn't what we are going to call her but in case we do shows with her she'll go by this name.
The woman we are getting her from want th name to start with "ONCE IN A"
the mother's name is once in a blue Luna.

I want something pretty sounding but I feel stuck I don have any ideas.

Any help out there?

Once in a Toda la Vida

Toda la Vida is "Lifetime" in Spanish, like Luna is "moon" in Spanish like her mama! Then you could just call her Vida at home.

lol, when I was in 8th grade I got my dog and she is registered with a kennel club too. I never had any intention of taking her to dog shows so I gave her the name "[my first name]'s Sierra Nevada Tootsie Roll Maker"

Her name is Sierra.

Or
Once in a Salida del sol
(which is sunrise in Spanish) and it would be cute since her mom's was Blue moon.

Okay I'll stop now!

Like the one of the other posters, we used part of our akc yorkie's registered name, which was Fortune Smiles on Us and we called him fortune because my husband said that is what he would cost us! lol So you can do that if you find something that would work. If you like the toda la Vida, Vida is a pretty name for a dog.

Nicollem, just wondering what you decided to name your new puppy. Sorry if this post seems crazy but, I just love dogs so much!

It will be up to the breeder to register the name with AKC usually the name of the mother dog is included, you don't have to use the registered name unless you plan to show her. What breed of dog is she ? That should be considered as well.
