3. Buddy

No list of best dog names would be complete without mentioning everyone's best buddy: Buddy. Many people call their dogs "buddy" as a nickname, but many owners skip this step and name their best friend Buddy. Unlike the other names on this list, Buddy is more of a dog name than a human name, so it is best for people who want to give their dog a name that doesn't run the risk of getting confused for one of their people friends. The name is a derivative of Budd, which means "a welcome messenger."
