Introduction

Modern Family is an incredibly popular sitcom in the format of a mockumentary that follows the lives of the large Pritchett family. The patriarch, Jay, is married to Gloria, a Colombian woman much younger than him. Jay’s children, Mitchell and Claire, both have their own families but are still incredibly close to their father. Mitch is married to Cam, and Claire is married to Phil Dunphy and has three children, Alex, Haley, and Luke. The series tells the story of their daily lives with all the hilarious adventures and conflicts that can arise in such a large family.

Modern Family Dog Name Considerations

If you are an owner of a French Bulldog, you can opt for the name Stella, after Jay’s beloved dog. Perhaps the name Brigitte, after the dog actress who played Stella will work for you. However, if you are looking for a human character as an inspiration, fear not, the modern family is quite large so that you won’t run out of characters any time soon. 

Perhaps one of the most iconic members of the Modern Family is Jay Pritchett, the patriarch of the family and the Vietnam War veteran. He is sometimes grumpy and harsh, but he has a heart of gold and loves his family a lot. He is a reliable father who always looks out for his children, supports his wife, and loves his dog. 

An excellent name for a flamboyant doggo is Gloria, after Jay’s wife, the gorgeous woman played by Sofia Vergara. She was born in Colombia and is a former pageant queen who emigrated to the US when she was young. She was married to Javier Delgado, which is also an exceptional name for a charming doggo.
