Most popular dog names in Franklin County, during this last week to renew your dog license without penalty
COLUMBUS, Ohio –With the final week of dog licensing renewal season now here, the Franklin County Auditor’s office has released the most popular dog names of 2023.
The five most popular names, according to license information:
Other names of note: Brutus (434), Buckeye (211), Maximus (101), Chewie (84), Capone (43), Khaleesi (32), Frodo (22), Django (12), Pierogi (7), Betty White (4), Axl Rose (2), and Filet-o-Fisher (1).
Franklin County Auditor Michael Stinziano reminds dog owners across the county they have until Friday to renew or register their dog for a license without penalty. The 2023 deadline to license dogs is March 31, after which the price of a license doubles.
Licenses may be purchased online at doglicense.franklincountyohio.gov, or at the Auditor’s office license counter, 373 S. High St., 21st Floor in downtown Columbus. The counter is open Monday through Friday, from 8 am to 4 pm.
Owners can also change addresses, download forms and update dog information via the online licensing system.
In addition to being required by state law, dog licensing ensures that a dog has been vaccinated against rabies, which is required in Franklin County. It also ensures any lost dog is returned quickly to their owners.
License fees help support the Franklin County Dog Shelter and Adoption Center.
