It's a symbolic title. It's not about "good" vs "bad." Director Peter Sohn stated; "Arlo has a lot of issues when he’s born. He’s fearful and he’s weak and he’s disconnected from the family because of these issues and he feels like he’s not worthy, and so he finds a way to become worthy."

You can read the quote (and see the source) on the film's Wikipedia article; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Good_Dinosaur

Also, I agree, Arlo is cute.
