About this list
Beagle names are fitting for the oh-so-friendly and down-to-earth personality of America's favorite hound dog — familiar to many through the lazy but loveable Snoopy.
The most popular beagle names are Daisy for girls, and Charlie for boys. Many of the top beagle names have a friendly and down-to-earth vibe, matching the loveable beagle personality. These include Molly, Maggie and Ellie, Toby, Louie, and Benny.
Names of famous beagle and hound cartoon characters rank disproportionately high for beagles compared to other dog breeds. These include the beloved Snoopy of course, as well as Copper from The Fox and the Hound, Odie from Garfield, and Pluto from the Mickey Mouse lineup. A unique name we recommend is Huckleberry, as in the old-timey cartoon Huckleberry Hound.
Names that have a Southern or Midwestern charm are also extra popular for beagles, from Dixie, Belle, and Dolly, to Banjo, Ranger, and Bucky. Unique beagle names with a similar vibe include Lula, Opal, and Mamie for female dogs, and Guthrie, Jiminy, and Wylie for male dogs.
Yodel would be cute for a particularly howl-y hound, or you might take inspiration from the breed's expert sniffer with detective names like Sherlock or Holmes, Nancy or Drew.
Here is our full collection of names for beagles.
