It's always nice seeing actors and singers loving on their pets as much as non-celebrities do.

One of the most-enjoyable parts about bringing a new puppy home is determining what to name it. Of course, its given moniker might not matter a whole lot since it will likely have several nicknames anyway — Buddy becomes Bud or Buddy Wuddy; Lucy becomes LuLu or Lucy Goosey; and so on. If you'll be adding a dog to your family soon, you have countless names to choose from, but knowing which ones are the most popular might help you narrow down your decision.
