Bo is an interesting name for a puppy. Perhaps they chose that name because it is their fathers initials =) Another male in the house!! (Assuming it’s a boy dog)
What a thoughtful gift from Senator Kennedy!

they annoucned the reason why they named it that on the news today… It’s after there grandpa who passed on their moms side his nickname was Bo

I read that Bo was named after Michelle’s father (nickname) but ModelChic I like your theory better.

Yep, you’re right! The Washington Post says the first daughters chose the name Bo for the puppy because first lady Michelle’s father was nicknamed Diddley. The name for the dog is a reference to the legendary bluesman Bo Diddley, who also passed away.
