Films and series also provide ideas
If you think about small dog names from films, most people immediately think of a few. It is not uncommon for there to be dogs. Their names, even if it has nothing to do with being little in the first place, we quickly associate with small dogs. A good example of this is “Idefix” the dog from Asterix and Obelix. This dog name is very much influenced by the dog in the films and comics. Everyone who hears the name will immediately see a picture of the little white dog. For example, if you were to name a husky that would be somehow inappropriate. Another such dog name is “Odie”. This is the name of Garfield’s friend in the films of the same name.
I’m sure you can think of a few more examples. Don’t just think about dogs, either. Many other animals from movies can provide inspiration for perfect dog names for small animals.
Funny and unique ideas
When talking about funny small dog names, one often means exaggerated, ironic names. Mostly the names are based on the movie heroes from action films. Such names can also come from history or ancient religions.
To give an example we use the name Zeus. This is the name of the supreme god in Greek mythology. That is why one would say it stands above all for great power and invincibility. So completely unsuitable for a little fragile dog? No, not necessarily. The whole thing can be meant to be funny and still be perfect and unique for small dogs.
