Max Steel Inspired Dog Names

Introduction

The Max Steel brand started life off as a line of toys from the late 1990s that were aimed at young boys. The brand has since spawned two relatively well received TV shows, one not so well received live action feature film, and a heaping helping of video game tie-ins over the decades. The first iteration of the Max Steel brand centered around 19 year old John McGrath, who was effectively made a super soldier by a collection of nanomachines that his father created. Josh took on the name Max Steel as a sort of superhero alias. In 2013, the brand was revived with Josh being replaced with Max McGrath - a 16 year old high school kid - who bonds with an alien named Steel to access an array of superpowers. Looking for an action packed name for your pup? You have come to the right place!

Furbo

Furbo is a robotic dog from the 2013 reboot series. Created by Max's mad genius friend Roberto "Berto" Martinez, Furbo joined the main cast of heroes during the episode "Animal Attraction." The cybernetic dog's name is actually quite paradoxical as Furbo's body contains not one single strand of hair. In fact, Furbo was modeled after Steel himself - whose body is completely and utterly made of super strong, super flexible metal. Furbo's body is also streaked with green hues - as with all of N-Tek's (the faction that Max and Steel are a part of during the 2013 reboot) weapons and equipment. Speaking of which, Furbo is armed to the teeth with missiles, lasers, and a GPS - everything Max and Steel could ever ask for from a four legged friend.

Furbo got to show everyone what he was made of (one of the few times that statement can be taken literally) during "Animal Attraction." The episode begins with Max and Steel discussing the merits of pet ownership but it doesn't really start until Berto presents our heroes with Furbo. Steel more or less claims responsibility for the dog and spends the most time with him early on - Steel teaches Furbo a few simple tricks before endeavoring to help the dog distinguish friend from foe. Incidentally, Furbo's ability to separate loved ones from evil doers would soon be put to the test.

Max and Steel are soon called upon to complete a high stakes mission for N-Tek. Against the wishes of Max and Steel's Commander Forge Ferrus, Furbo is brought along for the mission. Things quickly go South during the operation, however, and the mission ends in failure. Commander Ferrus blames Furbo for distracting Max and Steel, proclaiming that the two would have easily been able to succeed if they weren't preoccupied with Furbo.

Initially upset, Furbo runs off on his own and ends up separated from the others. When Furbo finally encounters another person, he finds himself face to face with one of Max and Steel's greatest foes - Extroyer! Furbo puts his considerable talents to work and manages to steal a high value object right from Extroyer's person. Extroyer chases after Furbo and mortally injures the robotic dog. All hope seems lost until Max, Steel, and another of their cybernetic comrades come to the rescue. The N-Tek team is able to fend off Extroyer and return Furbo to Berto - who repairs the dog just before the episode's end.

Max Steel Inspired Dog Name Considerations

A major reason you might want to give your dog a Max Steel inspired name would be if you played with any of the toys associated with the brand when you were a kid. Both the 2000 TV series and the 2013 show were fairly popular during their heyday, inspiring hundreds of thousands of kids to beg their parents for a Max Steel toy of their own. If you were one of those kids - regardless if you were a part of the first generation 2000's wave or if you were a fan of the 2013 revival series - that may be reason enough to consider naming your dog after a Max Steel character.

It's also not impossible for someone to have been a fan of either of the shows, movies, or games associated with the Max Steel brand while also having never played with any of the toys personally. Both shows drew a fair of inspiration from the likes of Johnny Quest and even James Bond - leading both shows to inadvertently attract a number of older fans. These fans, in particular, may not have been interested in playing with any of the toys but they most certainly enjoyed writing, characters, and action sequences that made the Max Steel franchise so popular. If you're one of those fans, then you might also want to consider giving your dog a Max Steel inspired name.
