The name of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s dog has finally been revealed as Wendy.
Forbes reported the name after the Samoyed made her fashion debut in a Tommy Hilfiger campaign alongside the Kansas City Chiefs tight end. However, confusingly, eight hours after publishing their article, Forbes removed the dog’s name, but kept the rest of the piece online.
In the ad, Wendy posed with her famous dad on a striped lounger at The Plaza Hotel in New York City.

Kelce — who looked dapper in a navy peacoat and white turtleneck — smized for the camera as the pup sat up on his leg.
In a video for the campaign, Wendy and the NFL star got cozy on a couch while Kelce modeled a gray Hilfiger hoodie.
While it’s unknown why the couple named the dog Wendy, Kelce previously revealed in a “New Heights” episode that his favorite ’90s character was Wendy Peffercorn (played by Marley Shelton) from “The Sandlot.”

Swift also has a connection to the name Wendy, as she has made several references to the novel “Peter Pan” in her music.
Wendy travels with Peter Pan to the magical world of Neverland before returning home to be with her parents and grow up.
In the song “Cardigan,” Swift sings, “Tried to change the ending / Peter losing Wendy / And I knew you’d come back to me.”
She also has a song called “Peter” in her “Tortured Poets Department” album.

Fans began suspecting the newlyweds, both 36, had become dog parents when images from inside their lavish Madison Square Garden wedding were leaked to the Daily Mail.
In one snap of the garden-themed decor at the nuptials, there was a portrait of the pop star and the tight end holding a white dog.
Fans also recalled seeing the dog hop out of Swift’s car a few months prior.
Wendy made her debut alongside Kelce in July when she traveled with the athlete to Palm Beach, Florida, in Swift’s private jet.
Page Six exclusively reported that the pair got the pooch “many months” ago and have had Wendy for “close to a year.”

The bride and the groom both wore Dior haute couture. Swift reportedly walked down the aisle to her 2008 hit song “Love Story.”
