What is the name of Pocahontas's raccoon friend?

Pocahontas’s raccoon friend is named Meeko.

Meeko is Pocahontas’s mischievous pet raccoon in Disney’s Pocahontas (1995). He accompanies Pocahontas through the film and is characterized by curiosity, playfulness, and an enthusiastic appetite—especially for food he can steal or share. His comic behavior contrasts with Pocahontas’s thoughtful connection to nature and her more serious efforts to prevent conflict between the Powhatan people and the English settlers.

Meeko is part of a group of animal and nature companions around Pocahontas. Flit is her feisty hummingbird, while Grandmother Willow is a wise, talking willow tree who guides her. Percy, by contrast, is Governor Ratcliffe’s pampered pug. Meeko and Percy initially dislike one another, but their rivalry eventually softens into friendship.

The character also returns in Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World, where he remains Pocahontas’s raccoon companion. Although the film is inspired loosely by the historical Pocahontas, Meeko is a fictional Disney creation rather than a documented animal from her life. That distinction matters because the movie combines real historical figures with fantasy, musical storytelling, and invented animal characters.
