Top 100 most popular male and female dog names
Tuesday April 5th, 2011
Most of us put a lot of thought into naming our new dog or puppy. We realize our dog's name will speak volumes about our own personality, insights, or sense of humor.
And what a great way of revealing just a tidbit of information about yourself to passers-by. Did you hear about the woman at the dog park who was heard calling, "Bella, here Bella!" by a fellow Twilight fanatic, thus sparking a conversation and friendship between the two dog lovers? All because of the name she chose for her dog!
According to 2013 data from VPI pet insurance, Max and Bella remain at the top of the 100 most popular dog names. Curious as to the other 98? Check out the list below.
