I'm probably going to be bringing home a new puppy in the near future. The one I'm looking at now is a female blenheim (white and tan) colored Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. I don't want an obvious Disney name, I'd like something more obscure.. so I thought some of you guys would be able to help. Here are the few possibilities that I came up with:

"Gracey" - as in Master Gracey from the Haunted Mansion.
"Harmony" - as in the Harmony Barber shop
"Calypso" - from the Pirates movies

None of these really wow me, however. I was hoping maybe someone here could think of something better! :>
 

How about Anna (Ana)--sort of a take of of Anaheim?
 
Madame Leota
Ohana
Sally
Anita Radcliffe
Calliope
Hera
Tiki
Kali
 
Obscure Disney names

Dinah - Alice
Mim - Sword and the Stone
Perdita (not really obscure, but not obvious either)
Calliope - Hercules
Fifi - cartoons

Gideon -Pinocchio
Gus- Cinderella
Jasper 101 Damations
Roscoe - Oliver
Rufus-Rescuers
Hugo- Hunchback
 
Thanks for all the suggestions! I kinda like Tiki. I love Gus, cuz I'm also a fan of the show Psych, but I don't think it'll work for a girl dog. :> I seem to like the boys names the best, darn.

That's our chocolate lab's name :love:. I absolutely love her name, so beautiful and unique. When I remind people that it's from 101 Dalmations, they get a look of nostalgia in their eyes and you can tell they fall in love w/it too as they recall memories from their childhood of watching Disney movies. We call her "P" or "Perdy" a lot but her registered name is "She's So Purdy [as in Pretty] Perdita".
 
I do like Lily for a less-obvious Disney name. Some more:

Polly (short for Pollyanna, of course)
Tao (the cat from the older version of The Incredible Journey)
Elizabeth (the little girl from same) - you could shorten to Lizzy or Betty
Carrie (the little girl in Bedknobs and Broomsticks)
Angela (for Angela Landsbury, who played Ms. Price in the same)
Susan or Sharon, Annie or Haley (one of the twins from The parent Trap)
Thomasina

Be sure to post a picture after you get her!
 
Thanks again for all the suggestions. I eventually chose a name my father suggested: Penny (Bolt, the Rescuers, 101 Dalmations). Three Disney references in one name! Plus her ears are sort of copper colored. Here's a short video of her being adorable.

Did anyone suggest Lady?

Whatever you decide, I suggest you keep it to one or two syllables.
