Candy Dog Names
1. Lolli
Did you know that lollipops are actually named after a racehorse? The inventor, George Smith, made sweet treats on sticks and sold them at the racetrack. He called the candy “Lollipop” after one of the racehorses and it stuck! The classic candy inspires this cute name.
2. Tootsie
Tootsie Rolls are a classic candy that everyone knows, but not everyone loves. These chocolatey gooey treats fall all over the spectrum in terms of favorites from the Halloween bag, but did you know that Tootsie Rolls saved lives during World War II? They were included in soldiers’ rations since they offer quick energy. Whether you like them or not, that’s pretty cool!
3. Rocky
Bring on the nostalgia! Between Rocky Road candy bars and pastel-colored sticks of rock candy, Rocky is a name that can certainly inspire thoughts of sweet treats!
4. Goober
Goober is the dweeby-cute dog name you didn’t know you needed in your life. Named after the chocolate-covered peanuts, this name is perfect for little dogs with goofy personalities.
5. Snickers
Another cute candy name for a dog that makes you laugh! Snickers are the popular candy bar made up of caramel, peanuts and nougat, finished off in a dip of milk chocolate.
6. Twix
This could be the perfect unique dog name named after the chocolate candy bar, with a base of crunchy cookie and gooey caramel.

Buttercup is a classic pet name for people and animals alike! This name stems from peanut buttercups, like the world-famous Reese’s.
11. Dot
This is the sweetest girl’s name, after the popular fruity movie theater gumdrop candy. Dot is the perfect name for a small dog or a dog with a spotted coat. Sweeten up the name even more by adding an “ie” or “y” at the end for a precious “Dottie”.
12. Sugar
At the heart of every great candy is one thing: sugar. The epitome of sweetness is a great dog name for your darling pup, especially if they don a fluffy white coat.

Oh! Henry candy bars are a chocolate-covered collection of peanuts, caramel and fudge. Just hear me out: Can you imagine having a pair of dogs named Henry and Ruth? It’s so adorably ridiculous that I actually love it.
14. Mars
Mars is the American candy brand that makes M&Ms, Snickers and Skittles. This cool name would be perfectly suited for lovers of space and candy.
