Hoagie

Hoagie is an American English word for a submarine sandwich, particularly associated with Philadelphia. As a pet name it is a food-humor choice suggesting something long, satisfying, and made with love.

Hoagie is peak Philadelphia energy, and as a pet name it carries a wonderful specificity — this is not a name chosen by someone with vague food associations, this is a name chosen by someone who is very serious about sandwiches. There's something genuinely lovable about Hoagie: it's hearty, unpretentious, and deeply satisfying, all qualities that good dogs share with good hoagies. The perfect name for a long-bodied dog — a Dachshund, say — is almost too obvious to mention.
