we named our dog "santosha", such a great word.

Don't tell that to Indians! A lot of humans are named "Santosh". :x

Unlike in the West, naming one's dog after someone's name is considered an insult. "I will have a pet dog named after you" is insult thrown in fights. So, Indians name their dogs uncommon among humans. Or they have foreign names like Johnny, Jack, etc.

I really don't care. A Swami suggested the name and I agreed to it.

Fun fact: the famous "Sentosa" island in Singapore is a spelling variation of the same word.
