Gnocchi, Tequila, Pickles. This is a list of delicious things but also a collection of very real dog names. While the majority of dogs in America are still called Max or Charlie, drool-worthy food names have been on the rise—and I, personally, am obsessed with this trend. It’s okay; I know a lot of you are reading this, eye-rolling, thinking that modern journalism has gone down the drain, and muttering to yourself that naming dogs after food isn’t a personality. To that I’m simply going to say…
…I don’t care. Long live us dog-whipped fools.
Don’t take my word for it: According to 2022 national data collected by the training and pet care website Rover.com, pet names inspired by foods and drinks are skyrocketing. Hotpot’s traction grew the most (up a wild 1,085%), followed by Sashimi (up 785%), Pastrami (up 485%), and Yerba (also up 485%). Meanwhile, Oreo and Cookie remain the most common edible names.
