Mickey Mouse's Dog - Guardian of the Underworld?

Pluto, the only major Disney character to not wear human clothes, or talk.

There seems to be some dispute over whether the Disney character was named after the then recently discovered planet, or the mythical god of the underworld.

From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluto_(Disney)

Several months had passed between the naming of what was believed to have been the ninth planet, Pluto, on March 24, 1930, and the attachment of that name to the dog character. Venetia Burney (later Venetia Phair), who as an eleven-year-old British schoolgirl had suggested the name Pluto for the planet, remarked in 2006: "The name had nothing to do with the Disney cartoon. Mickey Mouse's dog was named after the planet, not the other way around."^[13] Although it has been claimed that Disney named the dog after the planet, rather than after the mythical god of the underworld, this has not been verified. Disney animator Ben Sharpsteen said "We thought the name [Rover] was too common, so we had to look for something else. ... We changed it to Pluto the Pup ... but I don't honestly remember why."^[14] Disney says they have no documents to support or refute the connection.^[15] Unofficially, even Disney's animators believed that Walt Disney chose the name to capitalize on the sensation of the newly named planet.^[16]
