Question: Punny dog names

Giacomo Poochini, Rover Cleveland, Rutherford B. Bays, Billie Howliday...

I need more punny dog names, with particular interest in the more esoteric/nerdy/historical names. So Mary Louise Barker good, Droolius Caesar better, and Dwight D. Eisenhowler best.

Bark Simpson.

Mr. Oflinkey insists I also give you his favorite punny cat name: Clawed Le Mew.

It's not very high brow, but my parents had an Ally McBeagle for several years.

I also know a family whose last name was Chess, who had a dog Harry.
