Why did Shaun White name his dog Steve?

White’s dog has a great story behind his name ‘Steve’. In an interview, the athlete revealed that it’s not just Steve, but Effing Steve, when he’s causing a ruckus.

White was inspired by a cartoon that had a guy named Steve in it. The character in the cartoon worked at a school and was extremely mischievous, like his dog. Unable to ignore the similarities between the two, White decided to name his dog Steve.

“It comes from this cartoon that I love. It’s like this adult cartoon where there’s these two guys that work at the school and the one guys named Steve. He’s always blowing it and they’re like F and Steve sit in the car I’m like why don’t we just call him Steve?” said the athlete.
