Pet Names
Names for Dogs
A dog quickly becomes a full member of the family, and its name stays with it for life – on walks, in training and a thousand times a day. The most popular dog names are short, clear and full of character: from timeless classics like Bella and Max to true dog names like Bear, Buddy or Rocky.
How to Choose the Name
Two-syllable names with clear vowels work best – your dog recognises them reliably and you can say them distinctly. You can take inspiration from looks (colour, size, coat), character (playful, calm, brave) or the breed’s origin. Avoid names that sound like common commands so your dog doesn’t get confused.
