Ruby, Charlie, Coco and Rosie also show their resilience, appearing in both the Hastings and Napier top 10.

John Payne, Hastings District Council regulatory solutions manager, said he believes Bella has always been one of the most popular names in his district.
"Hastings district has a lot of rural areas, and we think that could be a big influencer behind the name's popularity. Most rural dogs are working dogs, and Belle or Bella is a good short name for a working dog."
He said staff think the creative names owners come up with are funny, entertaining and cute.
He said there could be many reasons for some of the more esoteric choices.
"Sometimes it's affection, and in other cases, these names stem from their registered pedigree name, which often reflects the dog's lineage. The owners sometimes hyphenate those two pedigree names."
