Who would name a dog "Mr. Smith"?
Image via WikipediaYou'd be surprised. You might also be surprised that many of the names people find too silly or stupid are actually BAD for the dog (I'm not talking about names like Lucky, which seems to be cursed): there's a scientific explanation, which you can read about at WebMD's pet pages. It turns out that consonants count, according to Roxanne Hawn, because "Certain consonants (k, p, d) create broadband sounds with more energy across sound frequencies that get a pet’s attention. These sounds activate more audio receptors in the brain." How about that?
