Most people place lots of thought into brainstorming the perfect female dog names. Our dog’s name is an excellent way of showing a bit of personality. Just like human names, dog names rise a fall in popularity.
Pop culture is very influential after the film Frozen came out, there was a 900 percent increase in dogs named after the characters. Names from Star Wars and The Twilight films have also been popular.
Since your dog’s name will be heavily used for training here are some tips to avoid confusion.
- Select a name with hard consonants and 1 or 2 syllables. These are short enough to get your dog’s focus and the simplest to say
- Stay away from dog names that sound like an order, names like Kit, which sounds like sit, or Bo, which seems like no.
