Well Pluto's tilted eccentric orbit is more like a comet's orbit than a planet's orbit and most likely it was originally one of Neptune's moons that somehow got free of Neptune's gravity.

Pluto was originally named something else, I think? Starts with H...
Uranus has certainly lost it's status over the years. It seems like its' tracks are messy.
