Balto II character name meanings

Aleu:Can only be inspired by The Aleutian Islands

Balto:There is also a suburb to Copenhagen that is called Baltoppen

Boris:The name tell it self!

Boris Goosenov - pun of a Russian author, I forget the real spelling of his last name.

Sumac: The itchy plant?...

Muk & Luk - Mukluk boots, I think...

Aniu: An inuit word for "snow"

:-)

I've always thought of "Balto" as a close match to "Baltic" as in the European sea. I'm sure their is a meaning to "Baltic," possibly even Nordic in orgins, but I'm too lazy to hunt up the meaning, if any.

I believe Balto and Togo were both named after explorers that were admired by Sepalla

Actually, I just discovered today that Togo was named after a Japanese war general. �I pulled the information from that book I babbled about at the Balto LJ community. �^_^;

A curious find, slightly off topic: the name "Boris" means "one who battles".  LOL

Kaltag is a town in Alaska

On the serum run there was a musher who's lead dog was named Star.  I'm not sure if that's  a solid connection, but you never know. ;)

i'm going to be honest, i diodn't really like the sequal, the animation was poor, the songs were not needed, and the voices were not veryngood, they should have stuck with the animation from balto's first movie and should have used soemone like gweneth pathrow or leelee sobeski to play aleu.

I'm not sure about the meaning behind the name.Maybe you can try searching at <a href="http://www.behindthename.com"><font="red">behindthename.com</font></a>

well, i'll admit one thing, the puppies were soooo cute
