对于布法罗比尔队四分卫乔什·阿伦 (Josh Allen) 来说,这是不平凡的一年。他于二月首次荣膺MVP,又在五月与演员兼音乐人海莉·斯坦菲尔德 (Hailee Steinfeld) 喜结连理。现在,他的2025年履历上又将增添一项新成就:成为体育主题猫咪名字的潮流风向标。

根据宠物看护网站Rover最近发布的一份报告,在体育主题的猫咪名字中,“乔什·阿伦”的使用率今年飙升了232%。

阿伦与“杰伦”(似乎源自费城老鹰队四分卫杰伦·赫茨 (Jalen Hurts))以及“曼宁”(推测灵感来自得克萨斯大学四分卫阿奇·曼宁 (Arch Manning),当然,或许也包括佩顿·曼宁和伊莱·曼宁)并列榜首。

紧随其后的是“卢卡”(源自达拉斯独行侠队超级巨星卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Doncic),增长51%)和“马尔奇”(源自佛罗里达黑豹队球星布拉德·马尔尚 (Brad Marchand),增长32%)。

体育主题的宠物狗名字也呈现出类似趋势,“阿奇”(增长181%)与“乔什·阿伦”(同样增长181%)并驾齐驱。其他为宠物狗命名提供灵感并跻身前五的运动员包括:位列第三的费城老鹰队跑卫萨奎恩·巴克利 (Saquon Barkley)(增长81%),第四名的达拉斯独行侠队新秀库珀·弗拉格 (Cooper Flagg)(增长31%),以及高尔夫球手斯科蒂·舍夫勒 (Scottie Scheffler)(增长22%)。

新涌现的宠物狗名字包括“巴克利·萨奎恩”、“Cee Dee Little Lamb”(灵感源自达拉斯牛仔队外接手塞迪·兰姆 (CeeDee Lamb))和“纳库阿”(洛杉矶公羊队外接手普卡·纳库阿 (Puka Nacua))。而在猫咪这边,新名字则有“Catrick Mahomes”(堪萨斯城酋长队四分卫帕特里克·马霍姆斯 (Patrick Mahomes) 的谐音)、“特拉维斯·凯尔西 (Travis Kelce)”、“贾马尔”(辛辛那提猛虎队外接手贾马尔·蔡斯 (Ja’Marr Chase))和斯科蒂·舍夫勒。

今年,Rover还特别指出了不同城市的体育主题宠物名趋势。

尽管独行侠队在二月份的一笔重磅交易中送走了东契奇,但他在达拉斯的猫主人中依然人气不减——“卢卡”这个名字的使用率增加了139%。

芝加哥的球迷们则将热爱倾注于WNBA天空队前锋安吉尔·里斯 (Angel Reese),“安吉尔”这个名字在风城大行其道,无论是在猫(增长243%)还是狗(增长84%)的名字中都一马当先。

圣安东尼奥马刺队球星维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 在上个赛季,作为宠物名的灵感来源曾迎来巨大增长。但今年的焦点则转移到了马刺队传奇的“三巨头”——蒂姆·邓肯 (Tim Duncan)、托尼·帕克 (Tony Parker) 和马努·吉诺比利 (Manu Ginobili)。

“托尼”(增长629%)和“马努”(增长229%)在宠物狗的名字中领跑,而“邓肯”(增长239%)则在宠物猫的名字中独占鳌头。

It has been quite a year for Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. He won his first MVP award in February and got married to actress and musician Hailee Steinfeld in May. Now, it’s time to add inspiration for trending sports-related cat names to his 2025 résumé.

“Josh Allen” was up 232% for sports-inspired cat names this year, according to a recent report by pet-sitting website Rover.

Allen is tied with “Jalen,” seemingly after Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, and “Manning,” presumably inspired by Texas quarterback Arch Manning – and Peyton and Eli perhaps – for the top spot.

“Luka,” after Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Doncic, (up 51%) and “Marchy,” inspired by Florida Panthers star Brad Marchand, (up 32%) followed on the list.

Sports-related dog names followed a similar trend, with “Arch” (up 181%) leading the way followed by “Josh Allen” (also up 181%). Other athletes in the top five to inspire dog names are Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley at third (up 81%), Dallas Mavericks rookie Cooper Flagg (up 31%) slotted in at four and golfer Scottie Scheffler (up 22%).

New dog names include Barkley Saquon, Cee Dee Little Lamb (Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb) and Nacua (Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua). For cats, new names featured are Catrick Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes), Travis Kelce, Ja’Marr (Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase) and Scottie Scheffler.

This year, Rover also highlighted city-by-city trends for sports-inspired pet names.

Even though the Mavericks traded Doncic in a blockbuster in February, he still remains popular for Dallas cat owners – “Luka” increased 139%.

Chicago showed love to Sky forward Angel Reese, with “Angel” leading the way in the Windy City for cat (up 243%) and dog (up 84%) names.

San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama saw massive gains as an inspiration for pet names last season. But the focus this year shifted toward the Spurs’ legendary big three of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.

“Tony” (up 629%) and “Manu” (up 229%) led the way for dog names, while Duncan (up 239%) dominated for cats.
