10 male dog names inspired by the courageous men of the Money Heist
Choosing a name for your dog isn't always easy, and most of the time, when you choose a name it is to emphasize a particular trait of your dog's personality. In the Netflix Show Money Heist, each character has a unique personality and hopefully you will recognise your dog in one of them. So who does your male dog look like? Denver, Rio, Berlin or the Professor?
Berlin
There is something about Berlin, we can’t hate him. His craziness, loyalty, braveness and determination are what makes Berlin an unforgettable character. Berlin would be a good name for a Chihuahua.
Denver
Denver is such a lovable character, he’s lively, sociable and caring, just like a Cavalier King Charles.
Moscow
Moscow is a lively character, and is never afraid to make a fool out of himself in front of the others in order to make them smile. Moscow would be a good name for a Dachshund.
Helsinki
Helsinki is the muscle of the group, he’s also the quiet one, a bit like a Bullmastiff.
Bogota
Bogota is a hard worker, and extremely good at what he does. He falls in love with Nairobi, and does take good care of her when she’s hurt, making him a caring and gentle character. Bogota would be a good name for an American Staffordshire Terrier.
Marseille
We don’t get to see Marseille very often but he’s extremely clever and helps out the team so well, proving how loyal he is. And cherry on the cake, he loves his dog! Marseille would be a good name for an Airedale Terrier.
Oslo
Oslo is the quietest robber of the group, and usually stayed close to his cousin Helsinki, making him loyal, a bit like a Border Terrier.
Palermo
Palermo has a little bit the same profile as Berlin, no wonder they were good friends. He’s determined, not scared of anything and resistant, just like a American Bulldog.
The Professor
The Professor is a highly intelligent, analytical, conscientious and independent character, a great name for a Shiba Inu, especially if you imagine him with glasses.
Rio
Rio would be a good dog name for a Labrador. Indeed, Rio is kind, gentle, clever and extremely loyal.

Lisboa is the name the team gives Raquel when she decides to join them. She acts a little bit like the mum of the group, always very careful, intelligent and curious. This would be a good name for a Golden Retriever.

Raquel
Raquel was the inspector in charge of stopping the Heist from happening. She is confident, analytical and always intellectually curious, a bit like a Australian Shepherd.

Alicia is a tough cookie, she’s fierce, positions herself as leader and nothing slows them down, she’s devoted. It would be a good name for a Czechoslovakian Wolfdog.
Monica
First, Monica was part of the hostages and she was shot in the leg, so she got a special treatment from Denver and they ended up falling in love. In the first season, Monica is quiet, gentle and calm, just like a Bernese Mountain dog.
Stockholm
Stockholm joined the team to stay with her lover Denver, and her personality changed at the same time, she became a lot more confident, extremely loyal and brave. A good name for a Rottweiler.
