At Nextdoor, we believe that dogs are neighbors, too.
We hear from members everyday that dogs – and all animals – are a popular topic of discussion on Nextdoor. Whether it’s to help return a lost dog to its home, come together to save a hurt or abandoned pup, or even rally around a neighbor who may have lost their beloved pet.
In honor of National Dog Day on Wednesday, August 26, we’ve created a fun infographic with the most popular dog names across America.
Along the way, we found names that surprised us, while others delighted us, and even names that made us laugh. For example:
- Atlanta residents are Star Wars fans. The most popular name for Shih Tzus in the ATL is Chewie.
- Neighbors in Boston sure love their chocolate. The most popular name for Beagles in Beantown is Cadbury.
- The most common name for Labs in Las Vegas is Mulligan. Fore!
We also asked Nextdoor members from across the country to share images of their Bellas with us in honor of the nation’s top dog name – click through to see if your Bella is included!
