Counts come from public open data: NYC Dog Licensing Dataset (NYC Open Data); Hundenamen, Stadt Zürich (Open Data Zürich); Animal Shelter Intake and Outcome, County of Sonoma; Austin Animal Center Outcomes (public domain). License records count registered pets; shelter records count animals that passed through a shelter (some names are given by staff). Pets that appear in several years of one dataset are counted once. Names are counted as written, so spelling variants are separate.
