Rover also gathered information on dog names influenced by various parts of pop culture this year.

The final season of Game of Thrones brought on a spike of names related to the HBO show, as did the live-action remakes of the Disney hits Aladdin and The Lion King.

People continued to name their dogs after top-charting musicians this year as well, which included names like Drake, Cara, Justin, Abel and Shawn.

Unsurprisingly, the Toronto Raptors championship run inspired names like Kawhi and Leonard, as sports in general continued to be a big inspiration for puppy names.
