Japanese dog names are trending — Japanese names like Remi, Kona, Koda, Kai, and Mochi are among the most popular names for dogs right now. Of course, some of these also have origins in other countries, but we're noticing more and more dogs with distinctly Japanese names like Kenzo and Kenji, Yoko and Yoshi.
Along with Remi and Yoko, other Japanese female dog names include Hachi, Kiko, Momo, Nemi, and Tazu. In addition to Kai and Kenzo, other Japanese male dog names include Hiro, Kiba, Mori, Oto, and Yuto.
Japanese food names for dogs are currently a microtrend. Besides Mochi, others we recommend include Maki, Tamari, Soba, Nori, and Yuzu.
Japanese dog names are especially appropriate for Japanese breeds, like the Shiba Inu, Akita Inu, and Japanese Spitz. But you may also choose to use Japanese names for dogs if you have Japanese heritage yourself.
