We’re used to seeing these kind of compilations for humans but what if you need some name inspiration for your fur baby?
Pet Insurance Australia have determined the most popular pet names in Australia and it turns out Luna and Archie aren’t just popular baby names, they came in at number one for both dogs and cats.
Both have been popular baby names as of late as they belong to celebrity children, Luna is Chrissy Teigan’s daughter and Archie is Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s baby.
The top spots also had some old classics including Fluffy, Bear, Teddy and Milo which all took out spots in the male name categories. For the females there were reappearances of Daisy, Rosie and Angel.
