Most Popular Female Dog Names

A name is probably the most important thing one will be given in life. It is a large part of what identifies someone and sets them apart from others. It should be no less important for your dog. If you're looking to name your new dog, here are some feminine names that range from simple to majestic.

Abby comes from the name "Abigail". Widely used as a term for a lady's maid, consider this name for any puppy already showing signs of dedication and loyalty.

Akyra (a-ki-ra) is Japanese in its origin and means "bright". This name may be perfect for a bright and courageous breed, such as a Japanese Akita.

Aria (ahr-ee-uh) meaning "a melody". This would be an ideal name for a Sheltie or other dog that exhibits delicate features.

Bella is Italian for "beautiful". If your dog is of Italian origin, this would be a perfect name for her.

Brandy may be an ideal name for a St. Bernard, since they have gained their fame for supposedly carrying small barrels of brandy around their neck to warm people who have been lost in the cold.

Brigit is the Irish Triple Goddess and means "exalted one". If your pooch is of Irish heritage, such as an Irish Setter, consider this name of majestic bearing.

Coco is of Spanish origin and brings to mind the word "cocoa" or chocolate. This would be a good name if you have a Chocolate Lab. If "Coco" reminds you of the world famous designer, you can use this name if you plan to surround your puppy in the lap of luxury.

Ginger comes from the English language and means "pep" or "liveliness". If you have a puppy with a more rambunctious nature, such as a Jack Russell Terrier, you might find this name appropriate.

Lady is an elegant sounding name for any dog of the female persuasion. If she is already showing signs of regal bearing, consider this name.

Lucy is a simple name and comes from the Latin word for "light". If your pooch brightens up your day, this name may be ideal.
