Naming your dog can be a fun way to reflect your heritage, and French dog names are a great way to show off your amour for le France! Even if your background isn’t French, you might be looking for the perfect name for your French dog breed. Among the most well-known include the French bulldog, papillon, and Dogue de Bordeaux, though that’s only the beginning.
We selected our favourite French dog names through a combination of outside research and digging through our Rover.com database of dog names nationwide. Many of these names are unique, while others show up on the list of the UK’s top 100 dog names.
