Looking for some help from any of our resident German speakers. I was asked to help a friend with this & am hoping to find help here :)
This is a list of possible kennel names:
vom Eisenwolfe
vom Eisenberg
Vegaheim or Vegahaus
vom(von?) Bergbaustadt
looking to make sure they would make sense to a German speaker LOL
Which works/sounds the best to you? Thanks!!

To a German it would be a town, a region, coat of arms, family name like house of..........
All the old kennels were like that.

Jon luc,
Yes I realize that :)
The suggested kennel names have been taken from their regional geography, places, etc.
Just want to make sure they translate correctly & are being used in the correct way. They don't want to use a kennel name that will have German speaking people laughing their butts off at the usage :)

Hi,
as far as I understood, they want to use one of these names in correct German?
Well, here we go:
vom Eisenwolfe vom Eisenwolf
vom Eisenberg vom Eisenberg
Vegaheim or Vegahaus von Vegaheim vom Vegahaus
vom(von?) Bergbaustadt von der Bergbaustadt
I would prefer the first and the last name for a GSD-kennel

HtHs,
Owe, too late for that. You will have to tell what you would like
to be associated with. Tell me in English. I tell you how a German
would name his kennel after it.

This is not meant to hijack...but I completely understand correct word as well as pronunciation. My husband's family all speaks Spanish and mine is awful... I had asked my little son if he wanted an empanada (little pie) BTW I may have spelled it wrong... Anyway,
I pronounced it emp ee nada... Everyone laughed hysterically... the way I pronounced it means "bent over"

Til,
Yes that is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!!
They had already had the English translated into German, but wanted to make sure they used the correct German grammar.

Hi not a kennel name but what I have thought about for a club name - Forest Hill
The training feild and my home & kennel are in the forest and you have to go up a very steep hill to get to it. I have translated the words but don't trust the grammar. Plus I like the euphamisim of what it means to GO UP HILL - WORK to get to where you want to be and in the forest nature.... Sooo if anyone with a native tounge can offer any suggestions on wording help that would be appriciated.
Thanks

Summer,
Very nice name Summer, the Germans will think you are
talking about Forest Lawn, the cemetery were all the rich people
in America are buried. Which would be down hill. And the Germans are still
laughing at HtHs choices for names.
Black Forest Hill is a good choice.
