What were The Seven Dwarfs original names?
In 1912. Winthrop Ames (pseudonym “Jessie Braham White”) produced a Broadway play of Snow White in which he gave names to the dwarfs.
Their names were Blick, Flick, Glick, Snick, Plick, Whick, and….Quee. Blick was the oldest and Quee was the youngest in this play.
Walt decided to name each of the seven dwarfs by the personality each one possessed.
The long and tedious act of coming up with names ensued. Some potential names were: Burpy, Jumpy, Deafy, Dizzey, Hickey, Baldy, Gabby, Nifty, Sniffy, Swift, Lazy, Puffy, Stuffy, Tubby, Shorty, and Wheezy.
This is just a few of the many names considered before they reached the final seven…Doc, Grumpy, Bashful, Sleepy, Happy, Sneezy and Dopey.
