Honestly, not a bad name when you really think about it. It doesn't sound too much like a name because of who it's associated with though. It's kind of hard to believe this was such a popular name back in the day, but I can understand why. It only sounds cutesy because of the association with a children's character. I say, bring back Minnie!

According to her daughter, "she could outride guys into her early 50s."In 2019, a section of US Highway 89 was dedicated as "Minnie Spotted-Wolf Memorial Highway.
