One thing leads to another but you probably already know that. There are many people who walk their dogs in our neighborhood. One of the dogs is the most insistent dog I have ever seen about seeking attention and handling from every other person on the street. This morning, that dog was doing its stuff and I asked the owner what its name is. "Bentley", said the very patient dog walker who gently insists the dog keep walking every time it tries to show its very deep affection for the delicious stranger it simply cannot live without. I asked and the dog is 4 months old.
It happens that one of the dogs that lives across the street from us is also "Bentley". Wow! Are there fashions in dog names like there are in names for newborn children? I had seen listing like this before:

These Are the Most Popular Dog Names of 2020 - Travel + ...
I asked my neighbor why the name Bentley. She said she wanted to be able to say that her husband bought her a Bentley, leaving the impression that she had a new British automobile. I found this:
The Bentley is used mostly on official engagements, and is always escorted by a selection of marked and unmarked Royal Protection Squad vehicles and local police vehicles and motorcycle outriders. ... The Queen also uses the Bentleys to travel to and from Crathie Kirk when at Balmoral and Sandringham House.
I also looked up the price and found $160,000 to $313,000.
