Bella Now Most Popular Dog Name

bella_dogMore evidence that the “Twilight” phenonomenon cannot end soon enough.

Thanks to the movie and novel series, Bella has replaced Max as the most popular dog name of 2009.

According to MSNBC, fan fever for the enormously popular “Twilight” franchise has spread its way to the pet world: Bella, the name of the series’ heroine, has usurped Max as the most popular dog name of 2009. Though Max held the top spot for six years in a row, this year Bella beat out Max by more than 400 dogs. But fans of the name need not worry: Max is the top 2009 name in the kitty kingdom.

Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI), the nation’s largest and oldest provider of pet health insurance, scoured its database of more than 475,000 insured pets to find the most popular dog and cat names of 2009. (Animals not insured by VPI were not included in the survey.)

Let’s hope cooler heads prevail when the young fans of this series are old enough to have children….

    If one takes a look at the actress who plays Bella, one could easily see that yes, naming dogs after her is quite appropriate.

    I find this hilariously appropriate.
