Most Popular Names … for Dogs
December 30th, 2006 at 10:20 am . by el nuko
The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene has just released its annual list of the most popular dog names. I will list them below and, just for kicks, I’ll put in parentheses each name’s rank among the most popular boy or girl baby names in the U.S. If a dog name doesn’t have a number next to it, that means it hasn’t been among the 1,000 most popular boy or girl names in the U.S. in the past 15 years.
1. Max (165)
2. Lucky
3. Princess (738)
4. Rocky (965)
5. Buddy
6. Coco
7. Daisy (149)
8. Lucy (174)
9. Lady
10. Shadow
I can’t believe Taco the Wonder Dog didn’t make the list.

Two. Those are good German names. I’ve seen a lady in Santa Barbara with two named Mustard and Relish.

Heh. One of my grandfathers had a couple of weiner dogs, Hansel and Gretel (his grasp of German names was somewhat limited).
