Roman Rottweiler Dog Names

Introduction

The Roman Rottweiler is almost identical to the traditional Rottweiler breed, however as their name implies, they are far larger in structure and extremely impressive (just like the Roman empire). Following along the guidelines of a Mastiff body, the Roman Rottweiler has a larger head, longer legs, and larger overall body mass. When it comes to personality, this breed is calm, athletic, protective, loyal, devoted, and trainable. Because they were initially designed to herding and guarding dogs, they make wonderful family pets for those who want a reliable dog to protect their family, while also being gentle enough to be around children.

Pluto

Our spotlight dog for today, Pluto, may perhaps be one of the most iconic cartoon dogs of all time. Created by Walt Disney in 1930 to be an adorable and loving companion for Mickey Mouse and the gang, Pluto is a yellow-orange dog with a long snout, long black ears, a stick thin black tail, and short hair. He wears a green color and carries an ever present goofy grin on his face. Pluto is strictly Mickey's pet although loved by all in the "Sensational Six" (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Daisy, and Pluto himself).

Something that sets this pop culture puppy apart from other cartoon dogs is that he is not anthropomorphic aside from a few facial features. Because of this fact alone, Pluto actually was a pioneer in animation as his movies had to be fueled by physical humor in order to get the point across as opposed to actual dialog. When we first meet the lovable pooch, he is a nameless hound dog who tracks Mickey down when he escapes from prison in The Chain Gang (1930. This is quite different from how we portray this yellow pooch for the rest of his career, but he had to go through one more introductory stage before he would become part of the "Sensational Six". A little over a month after we see the dog chasing down Mickey, he is all of a sudden Minnie Mouse's pet, who ends up coming with them on a picnic. He must have forgotten all about their previous meeting and the picnic brought on a real friendship, because the very next time we lay eyes on the famous pair, the yellow-orange dog is now named Pluto, and is Mickey's pet forever more.

It's wonderful that Pluto was placed in this role and brought on as Mickey's pet as it creates an awesome dynamic within the group; not to mention it is quite funny to see Pluto as the only animal character that doesn't speak or wear clothes in a world where that seems to be the norm. Pluto's name would be absolutely perfect for a Roman Mastiff that was slightly more on the clumsy, lanky, adorable side. With a sweet personality and a very strong sense of loyalty, there is no doubt that the name of Pluto (which actually represents the Greek god, Hades, in the Roman culture) could work well for both a gentle or a fierce dog.

Roman Rottweiler Dog Name Considerations

When choosing a name for a Roman Rottweiler, perhaps the most obvious options would be Roman names. Within this list, there are names of the gods as well as monikers that are common Roman names. They are simple, yet beautiful, and will be excellent options for the large and in charge Roman Rottweilers! Aside from breed history, personality will be the next strongest factor in choosing a name for your pup. For instance, if you have a gentle female Roman Rottweiler with smaller features, the name "Diana" or "Juno" may be perfect as they represent a couple of the Roman goddesses. On the other hand, large and sturdy Roman Rottweilers can be great candidates for names like "Tiberias" and "Vulcan" as both names seem to demand attention and are quite impressive. When it comes to coloring or choosing a name based on coat patterns, the options become a bit more limited. This is because most Roman Rottweilers share the same coloring type, so variation won't change much; however, a couple of names like "Jupiter" and "Saturn" would work well to match the multiple colorings that can be found on the coat. Regardless of how you decide to choose a name for your pup, there is no doubt that the perfect one is just waiting to be found!
