    No, not really. I haven't met many other dogs named Winston (probably because most people feel the same way about the name as I do it seems - I hate the name), but it's certainly not unique. Morgan is somewhat common. In the year we've had her, I've met about 6 other dogs named Morgan. Tango is somewhat common. I've met quite a few dogs with her name, all were male though.

    The Dachsies both have pretty common names. I've met tons of little dogs with both of their names.

    Maybe a couple of them. Shadow, Jack, Batman, Henry, Elvis and Jasper are all really common but I haven't met very many Kyras or Motchkas.

    I think my pets have fairly unique names for animals, but maybe not for people!

    I haven't met any other Martas or Adeles in the dogs world.

    Seine might be common, but I don't think it is around here.

    Pippin is probably common.

    Vallis is not- I've never met another, but it suits him since it means "a Welshman."

    Rutherford, while not an unusual name, I have never met another pet with that name.

    Biddy White Whiskers is probably the only one with his name, too.

    Otherwise they are all names that others have used before.

    probably (besides Tigger)
    I wouldn't name a pet a common name now. I have seen (but not met) a few Niņos on breeders websites, Oslo is named after the Capitol of Norway and I have yet to hear of another pet who shared the name. Nuria is Spanish for God's Fire or something like that and I've never heard any pets with her name. Terrence is not a rare or unique human name but it's uncommon in pets.

    Lets see-Nitis is unique, and Uno. I've never seen another dog named Sprinkles or Triskit. I believe Whino is unique (this is not a reference to drinking). And Novie is. And Jaws. I don't know how common our cat Aza's name is. Everybody else's is pretty common. I try to name my animals unique names.

    I don't think too many people name their pets Depot, but ever city in WI has a Depot street. Other uncommon names Caddis, Aphid, Kalooki, Ryu, Cho, 13 (yes the fish's name is 13), Horace, Walden. I don't know what constitutes unique.

    I have one animal that I gave a pretty unique name...its my rabbit Kishii! I named her Kishii because she is black and Kishii is the japanese name for 'Night' ...its suits her lol.

    Bobo is kind of a different name too, that is my cat, but then again I've seen other people's cats named Bobo, like Catmandu's wonderful kitty named Bo Bo.
