Disney Names for Dogs
See files for Dogs
Disney characters have been part of almost every childhood - everybody can name a favorite hero, heroine or sidekick. The fact that Disney movies are such as big part of our lives means many new animal guardians want to choose Disney pet names to remind them of these formative experiences. Fortunately there are many different Disney names to choose for your dog, whether they are male or female. We don't just mean names of famous Disney dogs, but any character affiliated with the many Disney movies over the years might provide inspiration.
In this AnimalWised article, we share this extensive list of Disney names for dogs as well as some tips to choose the perfect name. We also include Pixar characters since Pixar has been teamed up with Disney since 2006.
Choosing the perfect name for your dog
The most basic tip to choose the perfect name for your dog is to find a simple, meaningful name that's easy to pronounce. Since Disney characters are usually short and they're familiar for everyone, a Disney name will be perfect.
It's always best to choose a name that reflects your dog's looks or personality. If you have a Dalmatian, Pongo or Perdita will be perfect. If you have a fluffy, red-coated dog, why not name them Robin Hood or Ariel? Of course, some Disney characters like Pluto or Goofy are actually dogs, but you can also consider the names of mouse or cat characters if their personality fits.
A dog's name is a key tool in their socialization process and training, so it's not enough that it sounds pretty: it has to be practical. Experts recommend choosing names that are 2 or 3 syllables long and that do not sound similar to daily words. You should never use your dog's name when angry, because your dog will associate it with punishment or feeling bad.

101 Dalmatians names for dogs
While the Fox and the Hound has its fans, there is perhaps no dog based Disney movies as popular as 101 Dalmatians. While all the dogs play some part in the movie, the writers understandably didn't give character names to all 101 dalmatians. Instead, we have the mother (Perdita) and father (Pongo) dogs and a selection of puppies to make it easier for everyone. Here are the names of all the dalmatian characters in Disney's 101 Dalmatians:
- Perdita
- Pongo
- Cadpig
- Dipstick
- Fidget
- Freckles
- Jewel
- Lucky
- Patch
- Penny
- Pepper
- Rolly
- Tripod

However, Dalmatians do not make up all of the characters in the movie. Many other animals appear with these spotted dogs to ensure we enjoy the adventure:
- Captain
- Colonel
- Cornelia

- Lieutenant Pug
- Lucy
- Mayor Ed Pig

Of course, there are also human characters, some there to help the dogs, others are villains. All of them might be a suitable name to choose for your dog, although you will need to be careful with the longer ones. They are:
- Anita Dearly
