If he had continued to be called "Dippy Dawg" I'm fairly certain his surname would 
have been "Dawg", but over the years his name evolved from such to "Dippy the 
Goof", to "The Goof" to simply "Goofy."  He's been known also as "George G. Geef" 
in several cartoons, but in the series "GOOF TROOP" he's been more formally known 
as "Mr. Goof" and his son as "Maximum Goof" and his relatives as "Goofs."  Gilles 
noted that in the film "A GOOFY MOVIE" the family name is written on a map 
as "Goofey", but I would probably take it the same as with "Pete" that both "Pete" 
and "Goof" are their respective surnames.  Pete is "Peter Pete" and Goofy 
is "Goofy Goof." Sure it's redundant, but it's the implication of the way they've 
been reffered. 

I would prefer it was "Goofy Dawg" though. :-)
