Top 10 pet names in 2016

Pet Insurance Australia has just announced the top 10 pet names in 2016.

“Naming your pet is such a special time in the lives of many pet owners,” Nadia Crighton from Pet Insurance Australia says. “It’s great to see some of the classics making a return this year like Buddy and Coco alongside new emerging names such as Simba and Luna.”

Seems Bella and Charlie are also the golden names of the season.

“Both Bella, Charlie and even Coco are popular names on the cat and dog list.”

DOGS – WOOF!

  1. Bella
  2. Charlie
  3. Max
  4. Ruby
  5. Molly
  6. Coco
  7. Buddy
  8. Lucy
  9. Archie
  10. Daisy

CATS – MEOW

  1. Bella
  2. Charlie
  3. Coco
  4. Luna
  5. Tiger
  6. Oscar
  7. Simba
  8. Milo
  9. Missy
  10. Leo

With many expecting the pitter patter of tiny pads over the holiday season, PIA suggests taking your time with naming your beloved new friend.

“A great tip when considering a name is to have a few,” Nadia suggests. “Sometimes you’ll have a certain name in mind then when your pet arrives home he/she simply doesn’t suit the chosen name.”

Being sensible in your naming choice is also a good idea.

“Remembering that your precious pup or kitten will be a cherished family member for up to 20 years, so choose a name that will suit them when they are fully grown dogs and cats.”
