Meaning & Story

Named after Falkor, the luck dragon from The Neverending Story — evoking wonder, loyalty, the magic of believing, and the joy of soaring above the impossible.

Falcor is a name drawn from one of cinema's most beloved fantasy creatures — the great luck dragon Falkor from The Neverending Story, who carries Atreyu on wings of hope and courage. It suits a male pet with a gentle, loyal, and slightly magical quality — a dog who makes life feel a little more wondrous just by being in it. Fluffy white dogs especially earn this name with distinction.
