Milwaukeeans tend to name their pets in a very human way. For example, Buddy topped the list of male dog names, and Bella topped the names for female pooches. Animal-themed names have increased in popularity, with Moose, Goose, and Bear up from last year.
TV and pop culture also affects a lot in the dog-naming trends. For example, Star Wars-inspired names such as Leia, Finn, and Yoda are very popular. Kahleesi, Eleven, and Snow are popular dog names inspired by TV shows.
