Britons are rejecting traditional pet names for their cats and dogs in favour of those normally given to children, according to research.

Families are more likely to call their cats Charlie than Tiddles, while dog names such as Rover and Spot are losing out to Max and Millie.

The Daily Mail lists the top ten names for Cats and Dogs .... Red doesn´t figure - does yours :)

No ours don't appear in the list either. Our Jack Russell is called Milo after the one in the film Mask and our Podenco was called Baby, but decided it would be a bit weird calling her that when she grew into a small horse so changed it to Bailey as it sounded similar and wouldn't confuse her.
