Sounds more like a new entrants' class at a primary school: A company called Veterinary Pet Insurance in California recently analysed its 450,000 insured clients and came up with lists of the top 10 dog names. According to VPI,

The top 10 male dog names, starting with number one, are Max, Buddy, Rocky, Bailey, Jake, Charlie, Jack, Toby, Cody and Buster.
The top 10 female dog names are Bella, Molly, Lucy, Maggie, Daisy, Sophie, Sadie, Chloe, Bailey and Lola.

Obviously someone was having a slow day at work!!

And we have dogs with all those names among our rescue family.

I obviously have uncommon names for my dogs as they don't make the top ten. I still reckon Hogan is the coolest name for my big dude. I always wanted a to call a dog Yani (meaning my friend) but there will never ever be another Yani for me. Genie got her name two fold, Froggie B had imput "because she just 'popped up'" and it was also a combination of two names previously had by two much loved dogs.

The hardest dog I ever had to name was a little GSD X Rotty, nothing seemed to fit her at the start and I fostered her for quite some time, then suddenly "Cleo" came to mind as I saw her in a down just like a sphinx, on the lawn looking like the Queen of the Nile. So Cleo she became and her owner kept the name.

My hen Maroon Bellied Conure (parrot) was called Bailie long before anyone else called their animals Bailie! My friend liked the name so much, she called her new dog Bayley. It was a few years before I started hearing (human) babies being called Bailey, but I still chuckle that humans are called it. Mind you, my parrot thought she was a human, I'm sure!

Alison, Dudley #511 & Chloe (the Commoner!)

I was not actually at work when I posted that :P

I found it quite interesting.
I saw the Chloe ( 337) and a couple of other names that seemed familiar.
But after having named one of the cats Volvo and having to explain to the vet why he was called that ), nothing seems to surprise me any more.
Volvo named after a b12 Volvo double decker bus that he was found in.

Kate, I was talking about the people that came up with the list in the first place!!!

LOL

Sorry Andie

I guess that some people have nothing better to do with their time, especially in the US of A huh

We had a gorgeous little huntaway/lab X and my hubby wanted to name her after a Man. United player, and being an Arsenal supporter myself, we ended up making a compromise and she became Wembley (after Wembley Stadium).
The name couldn't have suited her more! Although she did up being called Weebles alot too.
I must admit - we haven't come across that name again.

None of the dogs that I have owned share the popular names either! I had a Sheltie Collie called Susie, and a short-haired collie named Millie. Had to give Millie away as I moved house and the place we were renting didn't have adequate fencing She would have been just over a year old I think, and went from being a pet to being a work dog on a lifestyle block, so probably remained somewhat of a pet.
