Meaning and background

The story behind Wolfy

Wolfy is the English name of the wolf protagonist in Wolfy, the Incredible Secret, a French animated feature released in 2013. Its production press kit describes his friendship with Tom the rabbit and their journey to find Wolfy’s mother. Creator Grégoire Solotareff explicitly connects Wolfy with his character Loulou. This is a direct fictional naming association; it does not establish Wolfy as a historical personal name.
