If you have a dog called Buddy or a cat called Charlie, then you've chosen the top pets' names for 2021.
The Lost Dogs' Home in North Melbourne has announced the most popular names sourced from its adoptions date over the year.
Last year's winning name for both dogs and cats was Luna - and it's still popular, ranking second in both categories.
Charlie, Harry and Daisy rounded out the top five names for dogs, with Milo, Lily and Simba the three other most popular cat names.

CHOOSE one that fits the pet's personality, so take the time to get to know it before settling on a name;
MAKE sure their name won't get confused with simple commands;
