Ree Drummond can't resist the face of a cute pup and if you're like her, you may "suddenly" find yourself heading home with a four-legged, floppy-eared new best friend. "There's no one reason we get a dog. Dogs just happen," Ree joked about the Drummond Ranch pets.

Settled into their new home, that's where the fun really begins: you get to come up with the perfect name to match your family dog's unique personality! If you're a big Disney fan or simply want a classic title for your pooch, Disney dog names are the perfect place to look for inspiration.

A lot goes into choosing the proper name for a pet, whether you have a large dog or small dog in any temperament or breed. A character name like "Bolt" aptly fits a hungry puppy who loves his treats. Those taking home a basset hound like the beloved ranch dog Walter might go for "Toby," the Basset who belongs to Sherlock Holmes in The Great Mouse Detective. Or, if you have a family of Frozen fans, choose something everyone can agree on and go with "Sitron," after prince Han's loyal steed. Two of the Drummond dogs actually share their names with a Disney character: Lucy from 101 Dalmatians and Rusty from The Incredibles—and that's if you don't count Walter the basset hound sharing a name with Walt Disney himself!

Ahead, you'll find a complete list of the best boy dog names and girl dog names all inspired by Disney princesses, princes, heroes, villains, and other furry friends!
