Your child has multiple opportunities during play to hear familiar names. You can "bombard" your child by discussing family members regularly.
Pets are family members also! Teach your child to recognize and respect animals by bombarding with the pet's name.
This is Dexter. Dexter is a doggie. What a sweet doggie. Good boy, Dexter.
After providing multiple opportunities for your child to hear the name, you can ask, "who is that?"

Reinforce your child by expanding. "That's Dexter. He loves you."
