In the original tale of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, as it appeared in the collection by the brothers Grimm, the dwarfs had no names. They were first given names in a 1912 Broadway play of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs written and produced by Winthrop Ames, who called them Blick, Flick, Glick, Snick, Plick, Which and Quee.

Silly, Sappy, Scrappy, Snappy, Snoopy, Goopy, Gloomy, Gaspy, Gabby, Blabby, Flabby, Crabby, Cranky, Lazy, Dizzy, Dippy, Dumpy, Dirty, Deafy, Daffy, Doleful, Woeful, Wistful, Soulful, Helpful, Awful, Graceful, Tearful, Tubby, Weepy, Wheezy, Sneezy-Wheezy, Sniffy, Puffy, Stuffy, Strutty, Shorty, Shifty, Thrifty, Nifty, Neurtsy, Hotsy, Hungry, Hickey, Hoppy, Jumpy, Jaunty, Chesty, Busy, Burpy, Baldy, Biggy-Wiggy, Biggo-Ego.
