According to the American Pet Products Association (APPA), an estimated 68 million households in the U.S. are home to at least one dog, and choosing the right name for a canine companion is an important decision.
In Virginia, the name “Bella” has emerged as the most popular choice for dogs. This beloved name is not only a local favorite but also ranks as the second-most popular dog name nationwide.
Following closely behind are the names “Luna” and “Charlie,” securing their spots as the second and third most popular dog names in Virginia. The name “Bella” holds particular significance for many pet owners, partly inspired by the character Bellatrix Lestrange from the Harry Potter series, as noted by the APPA.
Whether inspired by pop culture or simply for its charm, “Bella” continues to reign as a favorite choice for dogs across the state.
