What are the most common male pet names right now?

Consistently in-demand boy names include Max, Charlie, Buddy, Rocky, and Leo. But, original picks like Odin, Koda, or Atlas are gaining traction for owners who prefer a name extra stand-out.

Very much so! Cats respond best to a soft tone. Using a steady voice when calling their name strengthens recognition over time.
