How many children do Donkey and Dragon have in the Shrek franchise?

The story behind the answer

Donkey and Dragon have six children in the Shrek franchise.

Their offspring are introduced near the end of Shrek the Third, when Donkey returns from his adventures and discovers that Dragon has given birth. The children are hybrid creatures with donkey and dragon features, commonly called “Dronkeys” by fans and franchise references.

The six children are named Debbie, Coco, Bananas, Peanut, Parfait, and Eiffel. The names are visible or mentioned in franchise material, and several are playful references to foods or famous landmarks. Their arrival expands the relationship between Donkey and Dragon from an unlikely romance into a family storyline.

The Dronkeys appear again in Shrek Forever After and in other franchise content. They are separate from Shrek and Fiona’s triplets, who are ogres rather than donkey-dragon hybrids. That distinction is a common source of confusion when counting the franchise’s younger characters.
