Autumn dog names naturally lean warm and earthy, with inspiration from changing leaves, harvest food, spices and crisp-weather colours. The 11 options here range from Hazel, Maple, Pumpkin and Amber, giving you both obvious references and less literal choices. Maple is tied to maple tree; Amber has a very different feel despite belonging on the same page. The jump from Hazel to Pumpkin shows why the theme should inspire the name rather than turn it into a label. If Hazel, Maple and Pumpkin survive the first read, test them without explaining the reference and keep the one that feels most natural.
