Ted Lasso, Apple TV+’s Emmy-collecting hit show, is back for Season 3, so there’s no better time for us to deliver some dog names the show inspires.

The show centers on an American football coach (Lasso, played by Jason Sudeikis) who moves to England to coach AFC Richmond, a fictional soccer club in the English Premier League. He’s entirely out of his element, but his borderline-ridiculous optimism eventually wins over his team (and its owner). It’s very funny and makes me smile. 

Plus, AFC Richmond is known as the Greyhounds. We really have no choice but to come up with the best dog names relating to the show, from the show’s main protagonists to even the villains.

Is your dog a straightforward-yet-kind boss? Rebecca. Is your dog the sweetest? Sam. Does your dog come back from the groomer with an alarming haircut? Jamie. Is your dog here, there, and every-(freaking)-where? Roy.

Here are 60 Ted Lasso dog names for all the Diamond Dogs—or cats for that matter—in your life:

If You Like the Main Gang

I was half-surprised to not see a name like Lasso hit the list of most popular dog names in 2022. These are each interesting characters who’ve grown season to season, and do you really want to pass up the chance to name your dog Higgins?
