About this list
Pug names often fit the silly, happy, and oh-so-funny personalities of this adorable and popular dog breed.
The most popular pug names are Bella and Max — both within the Top 2 most popular names for dogs overall. However, for many of the most popular names for pugs, this popularity does not extend to other breeds as well.
With their goofy, couch-potato personalities, old man names are popular for pugs. Some male pug names include Frank, Wally, Fred, and Percy — the latter of which is a cartoon pug in Disney's Pocahontas. Some unique old man names that may be fitting include Linus, Humphrey, Elmer, and Howie.
Female pug names are often small dog names, such as Dottie, Kiwi, and Olive. They also include cute pug names like Trixie, Lola, and Bean.
With their smushed-in noises, pugs are famous for being noisy breathers, often grunting, snorting, and snoring. Vader may be fitting, as in Darth Vader — famous for his loud breathing.
Names related to pigs are popular for pugs for this reason as well as their pig-like appearance, including famous porcine characters like Petunia, Peppa, and Penelope. Funny pug names inspired by pigs include Wilbur, Pumbaa, Pinky, and Hamilton.
