Caitlin Clark has been the undisputed ‘queen’ in women’s sports, as Forbes named her the most powerful athlete in the United States. The WNBA and Indiana Fever benefited from her entry in the league, and even though she is not playing, fans and viewers show their love for the star playmaker.
Looking at her impressive gameplay and influence, many fans would start naming their girl Caitlin. Football star Elijah Sarratt did the same, but instead of naming his girl, he named his dog ‘CC’. As he revealed the full form of the name, Fever fans reacted to the same.

Caitlin Clark’s Love For Dogs
The former Iowa star also had a pet dog named Bella. The Golden Retriever had been her favourite pet since childhood, and she named one of her Nike Kobe editions after her. Even after achieving stardom in the WNBA, the player is always connected to her roots and family. Recently, Clark announced the heartbreaking death of her childhood dog Bella after nine years, and was emotional about her passing.
She later consoled her younger brother, Collin, who later shared a picture of Bella in his Instagram post. The WNBA 2024 rookie responded with the “Love you both,” and “second one is my fav photo of U two,” comment, consoling her brother.
Sophie Cunningham, who also has close ties with the Clark family, also reacted to Colin’s post and showed her support.
