So you’ve got a new girl in your life—and she’s got four legs, a tail, and the sweetest puppy dog eyes. Time to stock up on the most indestructible dog toys, shop for the best dog bed, and, of course, sort through all the girl dog names out there to find just the right one for your new family member.
Pick wisely—you’ll soon be saying it a lot, not to mention featuring it in many dog Instagram captions to come. Does the idea of a trendy name appeal to you? Based on Rover’s latest data, a whole lot of new puppies brought by Santa this Christmas will be named Bluey (after the popular cartoon pup), Lainey (country star Lainey Wilson is everywhere these days, and there are more trending “it girl” names where that came from), and Fig (it goes well with another trending food-inspired dog name, Provolone).
Prefer something more classic? Luna and Bella remain the most popular names for a reason. Or maybe you’re thinking of something unique (like the nature-inspired Lark), cute (Pepper), or funny (Dolly Barkton). You can also opt for a favorite celebrity name—or take inspiration from the dog names they’ve chosen, such as Roux (gymnast Livvy Dunne), Primrose (CBS Ghosts star Rebecca Wisocky), and Mozzarella and Pierogi (NFL power couple Kyle and Kristin Juszczyk).
One thing’s for sure. We’ve got 300 great girl dog names here for you, and we’re sure the perfect one for you female pup is waiting for your discovery!
