In a world where popular baby names are constantly being talked about, it’s nice to hear about popular names for our other babies – our pets.

Searching for the perfect name for your pet can be a little like picking a name for your child, you have a few picked out or have an idea of what you like, but until you meet your dog or cat you can’t really pick the perfect name.

If you want to be totally original, maybe stay away from Charlie and Bella, the post popular dog names of 2016.
