Look no further than classic television sitcoms of the seventies and eighties for some fantastic pet names. (Feel free to use the photos below, but please include a link to this page when you do so)
Top TV Names
Number 1 - Potsie
Warren "Potsie" Weber. A much loved member of the Happy Days gang, he was always up for a good old singsong. Sit on it Potsie!
Number 2 - Ralph
Everyone's favourite Happy Days red-head. Loveable Ralph Malph has still got it!
Number 3 - Schneider
Dwayne Schneider, the charming and debonair janitor from One Day at a Time. There always seemed to be an odd job to do in the Romano household. The type of job that could only be done by a man with a small moustache.
Number 4 - Gopher
Burl "Gopher" Smith. Your Yeoman Purser ensured that all guests on the Love Boat enjoyed a voyage to remember. Together with Doc and Issac, plenty of hi-jinks on the main deck.
Number 5 - Biddle
Susan Biddle Ross, George Constanza's sadly departed fiance from Seinfeld. George proceeded to live the dream, in his pants on the sofa "eating a block of cheese the size of a car battery".
Number 6 - Enos
Enos Strate (aka Dipstick), the bumbling law enforcement official from Hazzard County, managed to get his own show on CBS which lasted for 18 episodes in 1981. Enos was also the name of one of the first chimps in space - please refer to the Monkey Astronaut Hall of Fame.
Number 7 - Bear
BJ and the Bear. Sure, Bear was an odd name for a monkey but it suited him. Who'd have thought that the adventures of a trucker could make such compelling television?
Number 8 - Stewie
Stewie Griffin, the maniacal baby genius with plans for world domination. Of course Lois can hear him!
Number 9 - Merrill
Friendly Captain Merrill Stubing of the Pacific Princess. Also appeared on the Mary Tyler Moore show.
Number 10 - Mojo
Three words - "Pray for Mojo".
Number 11 - Alf
Alf (real name Gordon Shumway) crash landed into the garage of the Tanners in 1986. Lucky the cat lived up to her name, as Alf tried various methods to get her on the menu.
Number 12 - Arnold
Whatchoo talkin bout Willis? Abraham was a pretty cool name for a goldfish too!
Number 13 - Schultz
I know nothing, I know nothing!
Number 14 - Fonzie
The Fonz, the epitome of cool. "Ehhhhhhh". But the question is........moustache or no moustache?
