Australians just love their pooches and when it comes to naming their furry mates, we like monikers that are a little more unusual.

Bupa Pet Insurance has revealed the most popular dog name in Australia, with Luna taking the honours. The list of most, and least, popular dog names is based on the names registered on the insurance company’s policies between January and September this year. And Luna has take out the top spot for five consecutive years!

Also among the top ten most popular dog names in Australia are Teddy, Daisy, Charlie, Milo, Frankie, Bella, Archie, Coco and Ruby.

But there were still plenty of paw-rents who went for less-conventional names, with dogs named after drinks, including Bundy, Whiskey, Brandy and Bubbles, and others after food, including Bagel, Chilli, Oreo, Biscuit and Peanut.

Sporting stars also made the cut for more unique dog names, including PEPE and Kobe.

“Just like some children’s names, some pet names can divide popular opinion. Perhaps that’s why classic names continue to top the list, though the trend for more unique dog names continues to grow,” said Bupa General Insurance Manager, Shannon Orbons.

“So, if you’re in your local off-leash park and you call out ‘Luna’ or ‘Daisy’, and some other friendly neighbourhood dogs run up to you, you’ll now know why.”
