We have curated a selection of names that not only resonate with pet owners who are history buffs, but also those who appreciate the achievements of individuals who have left an indelible mark on society.

Similarly, the series of names inspired by the first graduation class of the United States Naval Academy in 1854, represents strength, discipline, and dedication.
Our list also pays homage to the stars of the silver screen born on this day. Names inspired by Gina Gershon, an American actress known for her versatile roles in films and television, Judy Garland, an iconic actress, singer and dancer of classic Hollywood cinema, and Elizabeth Hurley, a British actress and model known for her roles in Hollywood movies and TV series, are sure to evoke the glamour and charm of the entertainment world.
