50 First Dates Inspired Dog Names

Introduction

What if you woke up every morning not remembering what happened the day before, who your loved ones are, or a special person that you met the day before? In Adam Sandler's romantic comedy 50 First Dates Lucy is affected by a special type of amnesia that causes her to forget everything that happens on a daily basis (this is a fictional type of amnesia in which she wakes up every day thinking that it is October 13 of the previous year). Only Henry's love for Lucy can help her to finally remember who she is and that she has a life past October 13.

Henry

Henry Roth is a man who appears to have it all. Henry works a fun job in an island paradise. Henry serves as a marine veterinarian at a local aquarium and marine life museum on a Hawaiian island. Henry has the privilege of working with penguins, dolphins, and a rather zany walrus named Jocko. Jocko, along with Happy the Penguin, keeps Henry on his toes. In fact, Lucy begins to see herself falling in love with Henry after she sees him interacting with the animals. Henry is happy to be a bachelor, or so he thinks. Henry adopts a bit of a playboy attitude, dating many pretty women but never stopping to develop a relationship with one. That is until he meets Lucy. Henry becomes so besotted with Lucy that he works to learn her secret, and, when he does, Henry works to help Lucy to fall in love with him every day. At one point, Henry proves his love for Lucy by agreeing to let her go back to her old life (and not trying to make her remember him or their relationship). Heartbroken, Henry has agreed to go on a year-long sabbatical working with other marine animals. However, just before he leaves, Henry learns that Lucy sings every day - deep in her subconscious, she misses Henry. Henry devotes his life to ensuring Lucy knows who he is and how much he loves her.

Henry is another popular name for any dog breed. In fact, there are a few pop culture icons named Henry. One, in particular, is a mixed breed dog named Henry whose best friend is a cat named Baloo. Henry and Baloo both had a rough start to life. Both were rescue animals. Henry was adopted by a couple, Andre and Cynthia. Andre and Cynthia enjoy hiking, and they wanted a larger dog to accompany them while outdoors. They chose Henry to become a member of their family, and soon the trio was planning to move to Colorado. Andre and Cynthia found that when they were away at work, Henry seemed to suffer from separation anxiety. So, they decided to get Henry a companion. Baloo was one of eight kittens in an abandoned litter. Almost immediately, Baloo and Henry bonded. Baloo often serves to calm Henry, and the pair play together, hike with the family, and sleep together. The pair is often depicted in their own Instagram account, which has thousands of followers.

50 First Dates Inspired Dog Name Considerations

Although Henry Roth is a veterinarian, he does not specialize in cats and dogs. Rather, Henry specializes in marine animals - sharks, penguins, and walruses are more Henry's clientele. There are animals galore in 50 First Dates, and they add to the humor of the story. Jocko the Walrus provides many laugh lines, while Willie the Penguin joins in the comedy fun. It is also notable that Lucy loses her memory when she hits a cow that has inadvertently made its way on the road. (It should be noted that no animals were harmed during the filming of this movie.)

Now, considering there are no dogs in the film, we have to take some cues from the animals that do appear alongside Sandler and his cast mate, Drew Barrymore. Although there are no dogs that are related to walruses, the walrus does "bark" at his human companions. He also knows how to perform many tricks. So, while the walrus doesn't resemble this breed, the intelligence of the Poodle comes to mind. Next, Lucy has the unfortunate circumstance of hitting a cow. This leads to the idea of cow herding dogs such as the Australian Shepherd, the Blue Heeler, or the Collie. Any of these breeds would be fitting as having a name inspired by 50 First Dates.
