We grew up watching and loving Disney.
Now that we’re all grown up, some might not watch Disney anymore. But, that doesn’t mean something didn’t stay with us. It’s the many character names and stories from each movie.
When I decided to adopt my dog, there was no doubt about the name: I knew I wanted a Disney dog name.
So, naturally, I went through every list and found the perfect name for my pup.
To help you find your pup’s new name easier, I’ve come up with a list of my own. I’m sure there’s a spectacular Disney dog name waiting for your pooch somewhere on this list!

When you get deep into this article, you’ll see that the world of Disney can be considered as a deep, deep pool of excellent dog name ideas. Every movie, from the oldest ones to the latest editions, has some names that will make you stop and think about them.
To make it easier for you, I’ve divided the names into categories. They’re also all alphabetized, so you can find something you like easier.
Names From The Letter “A” To The Letter “E”
1. Abuelita, as in Abuelita, from the popular 2017 movie “Coco”.

7. Anita, Perdita’s human from “101 Dalmatians”.
8. Atta, a princess, later queen, from Disney and Pixar’s 1998 hit, “A Bug’s Life”.
9. Bambi, even though Bambi was a make character, I believe this is a lovely unisex name.
10. Barbie, well… Barbie is simply Barbie. But, the Toy Story franchise has a character named Barbie, too!

21. Daisy, as in Daisy Duck… Minnie’s best friend forever. Do you really need a better name idea than sassy Daisy for your sweet Minnie?
22. Daniela, Luca’s mom from “Luca”. A classy name for a classy dame.
23. Darla. She may be annoying, but Darla, from “Finding Nemo” sure has a cute and girly name.
24. Darling. She’s Lady’s owner from “The Lady and the Tramp”, and a sweet name inspo for your new female puppy.
25. Dinah. She was a kitten from “Alice in Wonderland”, but no one says you can’t name your dog Dinah.
26. Dolly, a rag doll from “Toy Story 3”.
27. Dolores. Madrigals from “Encanto” are all the rave right now, and so is Dolores!
28. Dory… who doesn’t know Dory? Oh, well, Dory doesn’t know Dory, but she does agree this name is a cool one.
29. Duchess, a lovely, graceful mother cat from “The Aristocats” can also be a pretty female dog’s name.

33. Faline, Bambi’s deer friend and a dear female dog name.
34. Fauna, second fairy godmother of Aurora, from “Sleeping Beauty”.
35. Fifi. if you have a dog named Pluto, then you need to name your new female pup Fifi. Mickey has Pluto, Minnie has Fifi.
36. Flo. The sleek green car from “Cars” is also a pretty sweet name option for your new pup.
37. Flora, another one of Aurora’s fairy godmothers; the leader of the group. Great moniker for dominant female dogs.
38. Flower. Remember that lovely skunk from Bambi? I find this name to be quite a good fit for a black and white puppy.
39. Frou-Frou. She’s not that popular, but she does have a sweet and quirky name. Meet the horse, Frou-Frou, from “The Aristocats”.
40. Gazelle, a superstar singer from “Zootopia”. Imagine a sleek greyhound named Gazelle!
41. Georgette. Getting a Poodle puppy with a pedigree? Then, you must name it Georgette, like the dog from “Oliver and Company”.
42. Gothel, as in Mother Gother, from “Tangled”. This would make a fine name for a Doberman girl.
43. Honeymaren, a girl from the Northuldra tribe in “Frozen II”.
44. Iduna, mom of Elsa and Anna, from “Frozen”.
45. Imelda, Mama Coco’s mother from “Coco”, and a spirit in “The Land of the Dead”.
46. Isabela for a female pup that’s as stunning as Isabela, from “Encanto”.

Names From The Letter “K” To The Letter “O”

49. Kala, Tarzan’s gorilla mother and a name that sounds just like the elegant flower, calla.
50. Kida, a warrior princess. You may recognize her from Disney’s “Atlantis”. I would recommend this name for a courageous female dog.
51. Lady, an American Cocker Spaniel, and a beloved character from the classic Disney movie, “The Lady and the Tramp”. One of my favorite Disney movies because of dogs, of course!
52. Lilo, the cutest little Hawaiian girl can be an inspiration for how to name your new puppy. Have you watched Disney’s “Lilo & Stitch”?
53. Luisa. As I already said earlier, “Madrigals” and “Encanto” are enjoying their immense popularity. Luisa is reserved for strong pups only!
54. Lulubelle, a perfect name for a teddy-bear looking pooch! She’s a classic bear character from the 1947 “Bongo” movie.
55. Madam Mim. How amazing would it be to name one dog Merlin and the other one Madam Mim? Any “The Sword in the Stone” lovers in the house?
56. Maleficent. Is it wrong to name a dog Maleficent? Not if you want an unusual girl dog name! Personally, I find Maleficent quite interesting.
57. Marian, Robin Hood’s girl, and a good Disney dog name, especially if your new dog has a reddish coat color.
58. Marie. She’s a lady, she’s adorable, and yes, she’s a kitten. But, that doesn’t stop us from naming girl puppies Marie, especially pure white ones!
59. Megara, a shorter version would be Meg. She’s not a typical princess pup, but she will make you fall for her.
60. Merryweather, or for buddies, Merry. She’s one of the three fairy godmothers of princess Aurora. Recommendation: a name for blue-coated pups!
61. Minnie. Of course, there’s Minnie Mouse! How could we forget about our second favorite Disney character of all time?
62. Mirabel. Could we have a petition for Mirabel entering the Disney princess list? All “Encanto” characters are incredible, but Mirabel is above them all. That’s why I had to include the name on our ultimate Disney dog names list.
63. Nala, she always goes with Simba. So, yeah, there’s an idea for two dog names!
64. Nana. Name a more perfect dog name idea for a St. Bernard girl puppy than Nana, from “Peter Pan”… I’ll wait.
65. Nani, as in Nani, from “Lilo & Stitch”. I’d say this makes a fine Disney girl dog name, especially if you plan on your little girl becoming a big sister one day.
66. Olivia, a brave little mouse from “The Great Mouse Detective”.
Names From The Letter “P” To The Letter “T”

67. Pearl, the sweetest little octopus from “Finding Nemo”, and a super cute name for your little puppy.
68. Pepa, as in Pepa Madrigal, or the most adorable short-dog name inspired by Disney!
69. Perdita. Not naming your female Dalmatian Perdita would be just ridiculous.
70. Raya, the name of the main character from Disney’s latest hit, “Raya and the Last Dragon”.
71. Riley. We all loved “Inside Out”, and I bet we’ll all love the name, Riley, too!
72. Rita comes from the movie, “Oliver & Company”. She’s the ideal name for a slender dog.

74. Shanti, a little girl and a friend of Mowgli, from “The Jungle Book”.
75. Sina, Princess Moana’s mother.
76. Tiger Lily, a beautiful Indian princess from “Peter Pan”. This is a name for a pup that has got it all: beauty and brains!
77. Tinkerbell for tiny pooches as tiny as Tinker, herself!
Names From The Letter “U” To The Letter “Z”
78. Ursula. I know she’s bad. But, in case you’re looking for a Disney dog name that starts with “U”, here’s Ursula.
79. Vanellope. She may act like a little princess, but inside, she’s a fighter. Just like Vanellope, from “Wreck-It Ralph”.
80. Wendy for a dog that watches over everyone, making sure her entire pack is safe. Just like Wendy, from “Peter Pan”.
81. Yelena, a leader of the Northuldra. This is a tribe from “Frozen II”. Just the name you need for your dominant female dog.
82. Yzma. Lastly, we have the most hilarious name idea for that quirky female pooch of yours. Here’s Yzma, from “The Emperor’s New Groove”.
Disney Dog Character Names For Males

I can’t put my finger on a name and say: Abu or Lago are the sweetest Disney dog names ever!
They’re all so amazing, and far more creative than Fluffy or Fido.
Male Disney dog names are organized just like the female names. I’m sure you’ll find a great idea for your new puppy.
Names From The Letter “A” To The Letter “E”
83. Abu, a loyal ape sidekick from “Aladdin”.
84. Agnarr, father king from “Frozen”. Wouldn’t this be a neat name for a regal hound like a Doberman?
85. Aladdin, for that four-legged thief that stole your heart.
86. Amos. Even though he’s a villain from “The Fox and the Hound”, Amos is still a fantastic name for a cool dog.
87. Andy. Who can forget about our buddy, Andy, from “Toy Story”?
88. Angus, princess Merida’s horse, and a good name idea for a dog fashioning a black coat.
89. Arlo. I imagine an “Arlo” puppy being a happy-go-lucky Golden Retriever. You may remember the name from the movie, “The Good Dinosaur”.
90. Baloo, Mowgli’s loyal friend from “The Jungle Book”.
91. Baymax. A big, white robot from “Big Hero 6” can also serve as inspiration for a large white dog’s name.
92. Beast. Of course, we can’t forget about the leading male character from “Beauty and the Beast”. I believe a bulky Golden Retriever would like the name, “Beast”.
93. Big Daddy, Charlotte’s father from “The Princess and the Frog”. Just give it to a really big doggo.
94. Bing Bong, that big, pink elephant from “Inside Out”. While there are no pink dogs, you can still give this name to a big, rather loud dog.
95. Bolt. Although Bolt would be the ideal name for a White Swiss Shepherd, you can still name other dog breeds “Bolt”. For example, a Husky named “Bolt”, or a German Shepherd named “Bolt”!
96. Bongo, a bear character from Disney classics. Remember his girl buddy, Lulubelle?
97. Boris. One of the dog’s, “Lady”, from “The Lady and the Tramp”, meets him in the pound.
98. Bruce, a fish-friendly shark from “Finding Nemo”. You can’t deny you liked his hopeful attitude!

100. Buzz, or Buzz Lightyear. He’s a hero from the “Toy Story” franchise.
101. Camilo, a shape-shifting member of the amazing Madrigals!
102. Chip. Whether you like Chip, from “Chip and Dale”, or Chip, from “Beauty and the Beast”, you’ll like this cute, short-dog name.
103. Cogsworth, the talking clock from “Beauty and the Beast”. Quite a fancy name idea, I might add.
104. Cri-Kee, Mulan’s lucky cricket.
105. Dale, Chip’s best friend, and a chipmunk you simply gotta love!
106. Dante, a stray Xoloitzcuintle from “Coco” and Miguel’s dog.
107. Dash, a part of the Incredibles. His ability is to run fast. If that’s a trait your dog possesses, maybe it should be named Dash.
108. Denahi, one of the three brothers from “Brother Bear”.
109. Dodger, a cute little Jack Russell from “Oliver and Company”.
110. Donald, simply… Donald Duck.
111. Dopey, a goofy-looking dwarf from “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”.

113. Eeyore, a sad-looking donkey character from “Winnie the Pooh”.
114. Emile, Remy’s fat and adorable rat brother from “Ratatouille”. Man, he loves to eat!

115. Fergus, Princess Merida’s father from “Brave” is our inspiration for naming a big dog like a Rottweiler.

117. Flounder, princess Ariel’s fish sidekick.
118. Flynn, a charming thief from “Tangled” (Flynn Ryder).
119. Gantu, a large alien hunting lost experiments all over the island in the “Lilo and Stitch” series.
120. Gaston. Everybody knows Gaston! He may not be a good boy, but he does have a good name for a muscular dog.
121. Genie, Aladdin’s magical sidekick.
122. Gepetto, Pinocchio’s father. You just know this dog name will be a hit in the park.
123. Goofy. We must not forget our buddy, Goofy… Disney’s most popular dog!
124. Gus, Cinderella’s adorable, chubby mouse friend. Imagine having a dog couple named Jaq and Gus. That’s too adorable!
125. Heihei, Moana’s hilarious rooster has a pretty interesting name.
126. Hercules, an ancient Greek hero character, which makes such a terrific name for a tough, muscular dog like a Pitbull or a Boxer.
127. Hiro, a character you know from “Big Hero 6” is really inspirational.
128. Iago. This villain from Aladdin serves as a really good inspiration for a yappy dog.
129. Jafar. Of course, after Iago comes Jafar, the main villain. Still, I find this name to be quite unique.
130. Jaq, the mouse friend from Cinderella.
131. Jiminy, Pinocchio’s best friend. Wait, there’s an idea: two dogs named Pinocchio and Jiminy!
Names From The Letter “K” To The Letter “O”

132. Kenai, a lead character from “Brother Bear”. He gets turned into a bear in the movie.
133. Koda, the adorable, sometimes annoying little bear from “Brother Bear”.
134. Kristoff, even male characters from Frozen enjoy huge popularity. That’s why Kristoff is such a popular Disney dog name for males.

136. Kuzco, Emperor Kuzco from the movie from above that gets turned into a llama.

138. Luca, just like the name character of the 2021 Disney hit, “Luca”.
139. Lucifer. He sure was a bad cat from “Cinderella”. But, I believe this makes a pretty awesome name for a big dog that intimidates people.
140. Lucky, one of the Dalmatian puppies.
141. Lumiere, a candlestick with charisma! If you love “Beauty and the Beast” and got a dog that’s quite a charmer, Lumiere is the way to go.
142. Marshmallow, snow monster from Frozen. Come on, every big, fluffy, white dog should be named Marshmallow!
143. Maui, as in demigod Maui, from “Moana”. This is another Disney name for a big dog.

161. Pongo always goes so well with Perdita, especially if we’re talking about Dalmatians.

164. Pumbaa, Simba’s sidekick. I’d suggest you use this name if your pup is big and likes to munch on food a lot.

166. Remy, as in little chef Remy, from “Ratatouille”.
167. Scar. He was a villain, but he does have a cool name. I reckon any of the guardian dogs would rock this name.

169. Shang, inspired by Mulan’s, Li Shang, a brave character.

Names From The Letter “U” To The Letter “Z”
182. Wall-E, for a puppy that proved to you love does exist.
