If you’re looking for the best funny boy dog names for your comedic canine companion, we’ve got you covered!
A lot of us pride ourselves on being clever when we name our new fur baby addition to the family.
The comedy can come from a play on words of real celebrity names, names of food, or just from cute words and adorable characters.
If you want to put a smile on the person’s face when you first divulge the name of your pup, then this list is for you!
We have once again done the legwork to find monikers that will not only crinkle the corners of one’s eyes but hopefully also bring a smile to your lips.

The celebrity dog puns are our favorite, but we also managed to find some cute names that illustrate a dog’s tendencies (Scooter and Barks-a-Lot) as well as ones after food (Meatball, Burrito, and Taco).
Names and puns after cute characters such as Cookie Monster, Bilbo Waggins and Fresh Prints (of Bel Air) also caught our attention.
Which one was your favorite? I know this is a tough question since there so many clever and humorous names on our list.
Our favorites are Excalifur, Santa Paws, Jabba the Mutt, Furcules, Spaniel Craig, and the list goes on and on.
