Goofy, Joke Father

This article is about the Disney character. For the boarding stance, see Footedness.Goofy, First appearance Mickey's Revue, 25 May 1932 Created by Art Babbitt Voiced by See below Also known as George Geef, G. G. Geef, Dippy Dawg, Super Goof, Mr. Walker/Wheeler, Mr. X Goofy is an animated cartoon character from the Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse universe. He is an anthropomorphic dog and is one of Mickey Mouse's best friends. His original concept name was "Dippy Dawg" in cartoon shorts created during the 1930s; then his name was given as "George Geef" or "G.G. Geef" in cartoon shorts during the 1950s (implying that "Goofy" was a nickname). Contemporary sources,show A Goofy Movie, now give the character's full name to be Goofy Goof. The Goof Troop pilot also refers to 'G. G. Goof' on a diploma, likely a reference to the original name. Along with being not extremely intelligent, Goofy's main flaw is, predictably, clumsiness. On the map in A Goofy Movie that shows the trip that Goofy senior and his father took, it says that the map belongs to Benjamin Goof, most likely the given name of Goofy's father.

While his wife was drawn in different styles and shown only during shorts when he was cast in "family man" situations, Goofy is unique in being portrayed as being both a widower and a single father raising a son, Max Goof, instead of having only a nephew like some other major Disney characters including Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. Goofy does have a nephew, Gilbert, but that relative has hardly been seen since Goofy became known as a father. Goofy also has an adventurer relative Indiana Goof.
