Introduction
What Happens in Vegas Inspired Dog Names in Pop Culture
A dog named Lucky is our first famous pet featured with a What Happens in Vegas inspired name. You might remember Lucky from the film Dr. Dolittle. Lucky is the name of the dog that John Dolittle adopts after accidentally running over the poor pup. Lucky helps John through his various adventures with other animals throughout the film. Lucky is voiced by Norm MacDonald in the film.
Did you know that there is another famous dog named Lucky that you should know about? Britney Spears has had many different dogs throughout her years of fame, but Lucky is a small Chihuahua that Britney was often seen with before her time with Kevin Federline, when Lucky was jealous of the new relationship. Eventually, Britney had to rehome Lucky but that didn't stop her from loving him and visiting whenever she had the spare time. While we love that Britney had a pup name Lucky, it's hard to not wonder if he was named after her hit song "Lucky."
Our final pooch with a What Happens in Vegas inspired name is Jack. You might remember Jack from the television show Little House on the Prairie. Jack was a mixed breed dog played by Barney. Jack made appearances in almost every episode of the show until the first episode of the fourth season. In this episode, Jack is found dead in the barn.
Jack is owned by the lovable Laura Ingalls Wilder. Many fans will remember that Jack was featured in the ending credits running down the hill with Laura. Throughout the series, Jack is often shown participating in activities with the family such as picnics and gatherings in Walnut Grove.
Barney, the dog who played Jack, was known to have a larger contract than some of the human actors on the show. This could be, in part, because he was in so many episodes of the series.
What Happens in Vegas Inspired Dog Name Considerations
When the time comes to really sit down and think about what you want to name your newest pet, you might start to feel overwhelmed. After browsing a hundred of the most popular dog names on the Internet, you may be left feeling a little uninspired. This isn't unusual. A lot of people feel frustrated during the dog naming process. At Wag!, we like to take a slightly different approach. Instead of trying to dream up a name, we like to take inspiration from pop culture. One of the easiest ways to do this is to think of a movie, television show or book that you love, and work on getting inspiration from that source.
Once you determine the personality and appearance of your pooch, you might start to notice similarities between your pooch and some of the characters in the show, book or film. If you like the movie What Happens in Vegas, a comedy starring Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher, then you have a great place to start looking at some fun names for your newest furry family member.
Here are a few of the best names you can steal from the 2008 comedy film, What Happens in Vegas.
