From where does all of this pet data come? For the majority of it, we’d like to give a big shout-out to RescueGroups.org! They are an outstanding non-profit with big hearts and big technological solutions. If you are an animal welfare organization, we encourage you to explore their services to learn how they can help you help the animals for whom you’re caring.

Namedat provides facts and stats about names, and although human names are interesting, the dog and cat name data is our passion. We decided to use pet name data based on adoptable animals because these are animals in the most need – animals who need to find loving homes as soon as possible. So although your interest in pet names may have brought you to our site, we hope that you might also consider providing a loving home or sharing a link with someone who can. The pet name data on our site is so much more than just facts and statistics about names – behind each name is an actual pet that you can locate, learn about, and help.

The pet data on namedat.com is updated daily, weekly, and monthly. We have many scripts in place to help extract, cleanse, filter, and display the names and pets in the most accurate way. We are always on the lookout for problems with the way that the data is displayed and also remove problematic data as it comes up. If you notice any data that you’d like us to review, please report it. Thank you for your help and interest!

Looking for a particular human name? Looking up your own name? Brainstorming ideas for a new name? Namedat is the site for you!

You can begin by using the search box to type in a first and last name. Available name combinations will be suggested below the search box – please select one of the suggestions and you will be taken to a page that displays data about that name.

Occasionally, if the community has provided or requested information about a topic or public figure, we may also provide pages that offer in-depth information about the individual. Some examples include John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and Aretha Franklin. We also post articles to the blog that we hope you will find interesting and relevant to the many facets of names.
