HelpRe: Riley
in reply to a message by Ismene
I actually do know quite a few dogs named Riley - but most seem to be older pets (owned by older folk).
Another name that seemed to be prevalent in my area for dogs was Lacey (Lacie, Lacee, etc.)
I think Riley works well for pets because it is simple, yet travels well when you yell it. Plus, it's a bit unisex as well... and friendly.
As a side note - I know a bunch of kids around kindergarten age who are named Riley right now. Most of them are a variation: Ryleigh, Reilee, Rylee, etc. Both boys and girls. I think the boom in using it for humans is more recent than pets!
