Star Wars-mania seems to be at a fever pitch with the opening of the "Force Awakens" movie this week.  Apparently we've been fascinated with the franchise for some time.  A recent survey found many of us name our pets after the characters.

The Banfield Pet Hospital, which boasts 900 pet hospitals around the U.S., surveyed their patient data base for the most "Star Wars" named pets.  I suppose it's no surprise that some form of "Chewy or Chewbacca" led the list.  But many also chose the dark side for a name.  Here's their top 5. Check out their complete list of names..

  1. Chewy
  2. Luke
  3. Leia
  4. Yoda
  5. Vader

Hospital employees voted these their 5 favorite.

  1. Jabba the Mutt
  2. Boba Fetch
  3. Chewbarka
  4. Luke Skybarker
  5. Darth Meow

Some how our dog's name has morphed from Molly to Randi to Randolph and finally "Gandalf" from the Lord of the Rings movies.  Check out the complete list of names of pets named after Star Wars Characters.
