American Kennel Club: The most common names for dogs in 2022

(NEXSTAR) – Dogs come in all shapes, sizes, colors and breeds. Dog owners would also (almost always) agree that each pup’s personality is as unique as a snowflake, making for a one-of-a-kind companion.

When it comes to naming them, however, most of us are apparently just content to call our dogs “Luna” or “Bella” and be done with it.

This week, the American Kennel Club released its statistics on the most common dog names among AKC registered users, and monikers including “Luna,” “Bella” and “Max” (perhaps not surprisingly) topped the list in 2022.

“Dogs are an important part of our families, and people take great care in choosing a name,” said Gina DiNardo, the executive secretary of the American Kennel Club (AKC), in a somewhat contradictory statement included with an AKC press release.

“It’s fun to see if a dog’s personality is reflected in its name,” DiNardo added.
