My little rescued dog doesn't really have a name. Would it be alright to use one of these ?

Not to worry Deplorable Yankee
All of those names are made up by "White Folk" anyway.

(The real family names and lineages were obliterated
by forced rape and genocide, where they had no way to
trace their ancestry. Their true identities were lost.)

So you aren't "culturally appropriating" anything.
No harm done!

Have a nice day!

Now go out and buy some Nike shoes
made with slave labor and celebrate
Independence Day in style!

Guess she has to pay reparations
 
I don't see any problem with the names, other than #3 under males. List is comprised of name, color, age and whether African or creole. So of the names listed, my favorites are Apollo, Chance, Duke (male) or Nelly, Gift, Milly (female).
