Naming a pet can be like naming a kid . . . you don’t want to be TOO boring with a super common name, but you also don’t want to pick one that will embarrass them at daycare. Even DOG daycare.
The dog daycare and boarding franchise Camp Run-a-Mutt has put out a list of the Top 20 dog names that they’ve seen, which includes more than 60,000 dogs across all their locations.
The Top 20 are very common names: Charlie . . . Luna . . . Bella . . . Bailey . . . Lucy . . . Max . . . Cooper . . . Daisy . . . Lola . . . Kona . . . Stella . . . Buddy . . . Coco . . . Penny . . . Oliver . . . Riley . . . Molly . . . Sadie . . . Milo . . . and Jack.
(Those are a lot of the same names we saw in a recent list of the top dog names from 2021.)
But they also put out a list of the Top 10 UNIQUE dog names, and they are: Barnaby Jones . . . Beetlejuice . . . Deputy Dawg . . . Bubblegum . . . Mr. Bojangles . . . Cholly . . . Barchimedes . . . Moomoo . . . Applestrudel . . . and Boss Lady.
