You’re only allowed certain questions. Didn’t anyone give you a copy of the price list? Seriously, Pug was originally going to be “Pip,” a tip of the hat to Dickens. Then Alan Dean Foster came out with the first Flinx and Pip book, so I decided to change it. Pug sprang to mind as another short simple name that someone might hang on a kid. It was pretty much that simple. Best, R.E.F.
