What is a good male dog name for a Rhodesian Ridgeback?

R: What is a good, strong male dog name for a Rhodesian Ridgeback?
Not a common name, something a little bit different. Family members like the names Markus, Remington "Remy", Dodger, Argo. Not in love with any of these names though. Any suggestions?

I love the name Remington and I have always liked Hemingway. I know they are not manly but they are great names. Duke or Zeus are strong names as is King. Try looking up Greek Gods and things like that, they have strong powerful names. It took me 5 months to come up with my horses name, Dante.
