Have you have fallen in love with the many adaptations of the 101 Dalmatians tale? If so you may be looking to pick a name for your new puppy (Dalmatian or otherwise) from one of the many 101 Dalmatians dogs names in the book, movies, or television series.
One would think this would simply be a list of one hundred and one puppy names, however it may surprise you to hear many of the puppies’ names changed or were never revealed through the many forms this story was given to us over the years.
For example in the book, and it’s sequel, The Starlight Barking, only a handful of dogs were actually named. And the parents were even different from the live action and animated movies you may be more familiar with.
