If dogs are the new babies, then baby names are the new dog names.

　　Proof that we think of our dogs as children: We give them names fit for human girls and boys.  All of the most popular names for dogs these days can also be used for people.  Or is it vice versa?

　　Here, according to the site Rover.com, are the top 20 names for female dogs:

　　Bella

　　Lucy

　　Daisy

　　Molly

　　Lola

　　Sophie

　　Sadie

　　Maggie

　　Chloe

　　Bailey

　　Roxy

　　Zoey

　　Lily

　　Luna

　　Rocky

　　Toby

　　Tucker

　　Jake

　　Bear

　　Duke

　　Okay, so Duke, Buddy, and Bear are still arguably more dog names than baby names, but they’re not unheard of for children these days.

　　And many of the other names in the canine top 20 are also popular for babies.  On the girls’ side, Bella, Lucy, Chloe, Zoey/Zoe, and Lily are also high-ranking baby names, while Daisy, Lola, Sophie, Sadie, Luna, and Stella are trendy baby names on the rise.

　　For boys, Charlie, Jack, Jake, and Oliver are popular names.  Hip up-and-comers include Max, Milo, and Dexter.

　　Many of the same pop culture factors that influence baby names also influence dog names, says Rover.com.

　　Game of Thrones names for dogs were up 200 percent in 2014, according to the site, and include Khaleesi, Sansa, and Tyrion.

　　Frozen was also an influence, with Elsa on the rise for dogs as it is for babies. And Star Wars names for pups include Leia and Chewbacca.

　　Other baby name trends also reflected in dog names….or is it vice versa:

　　— Unisex names, with such choices as Riley, Bailey, and Charlie used for both genders.

　　— Literary names, with Scout and Romeo on the Top 100.
