A Goofy Movie Inspired Dog Names

Introduction

Talk about a blast from the past! A Goofy Movie was one of Disney's first attempts at making feature length films based on some of their oldest characters with the intent to release them theatrically. The film follows Goofy and his young son Max (both of whom starred in the animated show Goof Troop) as they set out on a road trip. Things don't go as planned though, leading the father and son duo to bond over the course of the film. A Goofy Movie unfortunately underperformed at the box office, leading Disney to release future films that starred their classic characters via a direct-to-video format. In recent years, A Goofy Movie has a gained a respectable cult following of fans from multiple generations.

Goofy

Goofy's practically a shoe-in for this article, with Max being the only other character that we were considering. Goofy Goof (no that's not a typo - Goofy's full name is Goofy Goof these days), is one of the oldest characters in Disney's massive stable. It feels a little redundant to describe the guy, as there's probably not a single living soul who isn't intimately familiar with this Dippy Dawg and his best friends Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. We'd rather like to end on a bit of trivia before talking about his involvement in A Goofy Movie instead - that being the fact that Goofy is the only old school Disney character to have starred in a theatrically released featured film, as of this writing.

Despite the fact that Goofy's name is all up in the title of A Goofy Movie, he's best described as being a secondary protagonist in this film - with his teenage son Max taking the lead and acting as the primary character of the movie. Hopefully that previous sentence didn't give the impression that Goofy doesn't play a pivotal role in this film - in fact, he's the one who really kickstarts the story when all's said and done - it's just that A Goofy Movie is largely about Max coming of age while Goofy learns to respect his growing son's needs.

It's actually Goofy's initially inability to understand Max, combined with Max's inability to effectively communicate with his father, that leads to the road trip in the first place; Goofy spontaneously takes Max on the trip in a bid to bond with his son as he feels that the two of them are drifting apart. Unbeknownst to Goofy, Max actually had a date planned with a girl (like a canine girl, not a human girl) named Roxanne. Goofy's spontaneous trip accidentally ruins Max's plans with Roxie, inadvertently creating a rift between the father and son.

The film then largely centers around Goofy and Max's adventures during the trip - during which they butt heads before ultimately coming to respect and understand one another. Confident that he and his son will always be close no matter how physically far apart they are, Goofy helps Max win over Roxanne during the film's climax; Mr. Goof takes his son to a concert that Roxanne's watching and performs an impromptu show with Max and the popular, Bobby Brown inspired musician Powerline. In the end, Max is able to get with Roxanne before introducing her to his goofy, yet loving Father.

A Goofy Movie Inspired Dog Name Considerations

Have you ever heard someone say that a movie, game, book, toy, or TV show was something that "only 90s kids would appreciate?" Well, A Goofy Movie is often held in that regard by members of its cult fanbase. You see, many of the people who retroactively praise this film in modern times first saw A Goofy Movie when they were children back in 1995. For those fans, the movie likely has a special place in their hearts - reminding them of a simpler, more carefree, time period of their lives. Folks who fall into that camp are likely so dedicated to Disney, or at the very least this particular film, that they'd have no qualms naming their dog after an A Goofy Movie character. There's actually no shortage of canine characters featured in the movie either - between Goofy himself, Max, Roxanne, Powerline, and numerous other characters from Goof Troop, you're bound to find one that will resonate with you!

If you're a big fan of prolific voice actors, you should also consider naming your dog after a character from A Goofy Movie as there's no shortage of those guys and gals either; voice acting veterans like Jim Cummings, Jason Marsden, Rob Paulsen, and Nancy Cartwright all voice over A Goofy Movie Characters.
