What is the most popular pet name in West Virginia?

CLARKSBURG, W.Va. (WBOY) — Everyone gets excited to welcome a new furry friend into their lives, but it comes with an important question: what do you name them? A new study might be able to help.

According to a 2025 study by TrustedHousesitters, which analyzed 100,000 pet names across the United States, the most popular pet name in the state of West Virginia, overall, is Luna, a Latin word meaning moon.

The study also broke down the most popular name in each state by dogs and cats. While the most popular cat name in West Virginia is still Luna, the most popular dog name in the state is Maggie.

While Luna is the overall most popular pet name, according to the list, other names at the top of the list were Lucy, Bella, Charlie, Daisy and Max.

A different list published earlier this year found that the most popular dog name in the U.S. was Luna, but the most common in West Virginia was Bella.
