Scoobert "Scooby" Doo is the eponymous character and the protagonist in the Scooby-Doo animated television series created by the popular American animation company Hanna-Barbera. Scooby-Doo is the pet and lifelong companion of Shaggy Rogers and in many iterations, including the original series, is regarded as a unique Great Dane dog who is able to speak in broken English, unlike most other dogs in his reality, and usually puts the letter R in front of words spoken. Other incarnations, such as A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, present talking dogs like Scooby as quite common. The head of children's programming at CBS, Fred Silverman came up with the character's name from the syllables "doo-be-doo-be-doo" in Frank Sinatra's hit song "Strangers in the Night". From 1969 to 1996 Scooby was voiced by the late Don Messick. In the 1997 episode of Johnny Bravo Scooby was voiced by Hadley Kay. From 1998 to 2001 Scooby was voiced by Scott Innes. In Scooby-Doo and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed Scooby was voiced by Neil Fanning. Scooby is currently voiced by Frank Welker (the voice of Fred Jones).
