Introduction
“Those of you who are last will soon be first. And those of you who are downtrodden will rise up” – Thomas Shelby
One of the best television dramas from this decade, Peaky Blinders, follows the life of a Birmingham gangster Thomas Shelby, played by Cillian Murphy, who goes through thick and thin to rise up in the cruel aftermath of World War I. Tommy, being smart and calculated as he is, manages to bring his family up the rungs and rule over Birmingham before expanding to the whole of UK and even doing some work for the government and none other than Winston Churchill. The characters in the show are some of the best written characters in the history of TV, so naming your dog after one of them is definitely a good choice.
Peaky Blinders Dog Names in Pop Culture
Mikael Lindnord, a Swedish athlete, went on an adventure of a lifetime and decided to pick up adventure racing. The race is quite extreme, Mikael and his team ventured onto a track that in most cases can last up to seven days, doing some of the hardest sports in the process – running, swimming, kayaking, cycling, and covering many hundreds of kilometers in some of the most dangerous parts of the world. During the race in Brazil, Mikael and his team found themselves in a jungle when they spotted none other than Arthur, a sweet stray doggo whom he shared his lunch with. That act of kindness was enough for Arthur to express his gratitude and follow Mikael to the end of the world.
Mikael decided that Arthur is not going anywhere, he was now a part of the team and a lifelong companion and therefore destined to come back to Sweden with him. Arthur and Mikael had to fight both Ecuadorean and Swedish governments who at first did not allow the dog to go back with Mikael, but after a lot of back and forth, he was granted papers and was on his way to Stockholm! There, he was treated for his severe wounds and nursed back to health. His fur grew back, he stood up straight, his teeth were fixed, and his injuries were healed. Arthur was a new doggo!
Today, Arthur lives with Mikael and his family, enjoying his time in Swedish nature and basking in the love his family provides. What a lucky dog! And apart from sharing a name with King Arthur, the sweet little dog also shares his name with one of the main characters in Peaky Blinders, one of the kindest and most loyal members of the Shelby family. In more ways than one dog Arthur is similar to human Arthur, and if he could speak, he would surely confirm that loyalty, persistence, and endless love towards your family is what makes him a good boy, much like human Arthur always says.
Peaky Blinders Dog Name Considerations
While you are thinking about a perfect name for your dog and binge-watching Peaky Blinders at the same time, you might get a hundred ideas for a perfect moniker for your beautiful new pupper. Of course, picking a name of one of the characters is always a good idea, but if you want to spice things up, why not name your dog Brummie? Brummie, of course, is a nickname for people from Birmingham where the whole series is set. Of course, this name is a bit unconventional, but it will surely bring up an interesting conversation in your local dog park.
Another good option is to name your pup after one of the actors from the show. For your lovely princess, a name such as Annabelle can fit perfectly. Annabelle Wallis is an actress who plays Grace Burgess who later married Thomas and became Grace Shelby. A glamorous lady deserves a glamorous name, but Grace was more than just a lady, she was also a smart undercover secret agent who did her job very well. Perfect for an intelligent doggo that can use their puppy eyes to get what they want!
