Is Bingo the Dog’s Name or the Farmers Name?

Bingo may be the dog’s name, but farmers in the United States named the breed after a British game called bingo. Bingo was first played in the late 18th century in England as a gambling game. It quickly became popular among aristocrats and commoners alike, and spread to other countries. In the United States, bingo was often played by farm families to pass the time.

Eventually, it came to be known as the dog’s name because so many farmers owned bingos. Today, bingo is still popular in parts of the world, but it is most commonly played in Europe and Australia.
