I�m trying to put a sentence in Japanese into English. Do all the sentences below make sense and are they grammatically correct?

How dogs are named ( ).
1. differs from culture to culture
2. depends on cultures
3. depends on the culture


I think #1 makes sense and is correct, but I�m not sure about #2 and #3. What do you think?

Yep, they're all good but the first one sounds the best, especially for academic writing.
