Getting a new dog is an important decision, to begin with. But, naming the new best friend and finding that perfect name is a mission. Many dog owners agree finding the best dog name is harder than deciding which dog breed to get.
The whole process of picking the right dog name is a bit overwhelming. Why? Well, there are so many options to choose from! You can even divide best-name ideas into categories.
For example most popular dog names (Fido, Fluffy), Disney name ideas (Belle, Lady), human names (Hank, Hannah), cute dog names (Sugar, Snowflake), etc.
Much like choosing baby names, deciding which name shall your dog have for the rest of his life is a decision the whole family should make. What we suggest is for each family member to make a list of their favorite dog names, and then pick a name for your pup.
