Welcome to our Labrador Retriever Names page.
Because this breed has consistently ranked in the top 10 most popular dog breeds year in and year out, we felt that it would be a dereliction of our dog naming duties if we left this specific breed out of our Dog Names By Breed category….so we didn't.
What you'll find on this page are 3 different name categories, with each one giving name suggestions that either sounded like it might fit on this breed, or, might be a match based upon this breeds color. You'll see what we mean when you see our Black Lab Dog Name and Yellow Lab Name categories.
In our first Labrador Retriever Names category, we chose names that we felt might best fit this breeds large size, as well as it's loyal, affectionate, and strong yet gentle disposition.
Also, be sure to visit our Labrador Retriever page, where you'll learn everything you ever wanted to know about this breed.
