my cat's name is basically pronounced "cookie", but gets spelled kouki. found it a pretty interesting name because it means hope and/or happines depending on how you write it, it fit pretty well because i got him to help with my depression. and i think it worked pretty well. he is also very handsome.
I've got a friend who had a dog named D.O.G. He'd always pronounce it like he was saying "the OG". I never figured out whether it actually stood for anything.
Got a tux Norwegian forest cat we've named Rorschach. Also goes by "Love Shack" and Shaq
I have an orange cat named Crash and everyone goes “oh like Crash Bandicoot?” And I got “No like Crash Team Racing” and it still is funny to me.
Cats have three names, the everyday one, the fancy longer one and their private personal one.
It's completely normal.
I wanted to have a interaction with someone else. I wouldn't have gotten it if I linked it myself.
Sounds like the name of a detective in a 70s' blacksploitarion satirical crime dramedy
My cat's name is Nancy Reagan. She's almost lived up to it. And no, she doesn't like you either and if you try to pet her you'll get what you deserve.
Some cats have official titles. I had another cat whose title was "Chief Inspector." He was known to do home invasions and conduct snap inspections of my neighbors houses. He had more friends in the neighborhood than me.
I still dream of adopting a group of cats named Magnus Nyarlsen, Hikaru Nakamewra, and Gary Catsparov
One of my cats is Sadie The Goat (the cat).
She had a really bad eye infection when we got her from my in-laws farm and we thought she'd lose an eye so we gave her a pirate name to be safe
She ended up not losing the eye but its still a fitting name
I tried to name my cat Lou (short for Lucifer) but eventually he got renamed Mao because he is loud and vocal and apparently we name animals by Pokemon rules in my house.
I've got a cat that answers to Sweets because she's such a jerk. We added that to her name to remind her not to be a jerk.
I recently got a cat that I named Fraldinha ("Skirt Steak" in Portuguese) because the person that gave it up had named it Li-Fraumeni after a genetic syndrome. He is now called Felipinho (Lil' Phillip), but also answers to Pest and Toe-biting son of a b****.
we had a cat named Sweetie Pie that we shortened to SP and eventually started calling her thing like Sauce Pan or Sausage Pizza
We used to have a cat we named Julia Hackensplatter, because when we first got her she was so sick she'd cough and shitspray all over the place.
(She got better though, and lived quite a long time after a lot of love and meds.)
My cat's name is Possum. Not really a crazy name, but it has caused confusion before.
Once I was picking her up from the vet and said "I'm here to pick up Possum."
Then the lady at the front gave me a confused look and said "We don't treat Possums here."
