101 Powerful Viking Dog Names for Your Loyal Companion

Vikings are known for being adventurers and fierce warriors (the name is from the Old Norse "to raid"). Indeed, it's hard to picture a Viking without his/her armor and horned helmet. They exude power and strength, and if you watch the show Vikings, you know they are rather bloodthirsty.

Still, if you want a strong Viking/Old Norse name for your dog, we totally get it. Why not give your canine a powerful moniker, especially if you have a Husky or other big breed? Not to dismiss smaller dogs, however -- they can be fierce, too! We've rounded up 101 Viking dog names to help you get inspired.
