A Name Fit for Doodle Royalty👑🐾

By Sherri Smeraglia | Smeraglia’s TeddyBear Goldendoodles

Every little prince or princess needs a name worthy of all that cuteness!

Over the years at Smeraglia, we have come up with so many names for our puppies. Sweet names, silly names, fancy names—and names that seem to fit a little personality perfectly. With so many precious puppies and families woven into our story, naming has become a special part of the fun.

Then comes your turn. Sometimes you keep the name your puppy had here at the farm. Sometimes you have been saving the perfect name for years. Either way, that little name is about to become a very loved word in your home.

For our 2026 Doodle name guide, we have gathered inspiration for both the little princesses and the charming princes. Because we all know who will be ruling the house! 🥰

For Your Little Princess 🎀

Is she sweet and dainty, full of sass, or already convinced that every pillow belongs to her? Your little girl deserves a name that feels just as special as she is.

Explore the image below for 100 girl Doodle names. Save your favorites and share them with the family. You might find the perfect name for the little lady who is about to steal your heart—and your favorite seat on the sofa!

For Your Little Prince 💙

Now for the boys! Whether he is a snuggly shadow, a playful little explorer, or a tiny gentleman with very big opinions, choosing his name is part of imagining your life together.

A Name That Feels Like Family 🐾

You do not have to choose the moment you see a list. Say a few favorites out loud. Think about a place you love, a happy memory, or something about your puppy that makes you smile.

The best part comes later, when that name belongs to the dog curled up beside you, greeting you at the door, and making ordinary days a little sweeter.

Tell Us About Your Doodle’s Name!

Smeraglia families, I would love to hear from you: What did you name your Doodle, and how did you choose it? Did you keep the name we gave your puppy or start a brand-new chapter?

Share your story—and a picture of your little prince or princess—in the comments. After all these years of naming puppies, hearing the names they carry into your homes is still such a joy.
