It's not a done deal yet, but I might be adopting a female lab mix from the local shelter.
I always knew that if I adopted a male dog, I wanted to name him Timber. But, I'm having trouble thinking of a good, outdoorsy, woodsy kind of name for this pup. She is only two years old, so I figure she has plenty of time to get used to a new name (her current name is Susie, but growing up there a really mean girl in my neighborhood named Susie, so I'd rather not keep it).
Any ideas?

How about:
~Aspen (Can you tell I'm from Colorado? :))
~Cabela 
~Okay not really woodsy but wouldn't Hollyhock be a cute name?

I think since you are Woodswoman, Cedar is a great name! I also think that Autumn is a good name for beautiful autumn colors in the New York trees?! Maybe!

Thanks for all of the ideas so far!! I'm keeping a list, and I'll try to see which one fits her best. I loved the idea of taking her for a walk in the woods to see what she is drawn to!

I love Labs. We have had a few over the years. One was Blue, one was Blue Girl, one was Parson(my husband was a pastor). I always wanted a dog and name it Dang It. My hubby thought it inappropiate since he was a pastor, for us to be yelling out the back door, "Dang it, come here!" I guess he had a point.
For tomorrow and its needs I do not pray, but keep me, guide me, love me, Lord just for today.

How a bout - Willow, Ashley, Aspen, Lavender the Lab, Annie Oakley, Fern, Kate Moss,or Brook. I might suggest a walk in nature and see what she is attracted to - who knows she may give you her name right away.
After naming hundreds and hundreds of animals here at the farm - picking names can be a challenge but it usually comes to me. Good luck.

I do like the Cedar suggestion.
About two years ago I got a Amstaff and polled the MJForum for a name and Nancy Jo gave me the winning name. His name is Bingo---fits him perfect.

First thing that came to my mind was Elly May. Saw a Blood hound in a shelter with that name. Reminded me of Elly may on the Beverly Hillbillies. She was outdoorsy woody girl.
God Bless
