KpntAutismus, 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. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/237926c8-007b-4736-97b4-0f29ebd7ef5c.jpeg
Facelikeapotato, 
Such a handsome boy!
RootBeerGuy, 
He’s a kouki for sure!
eusousuperior, Very handsome indeed
IHaveTwoCows, I had a cat I just called Cat, but it was short for KittyCat-o-Matic With The Four On The Floor
averagedrunk, 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.
BloodSlut, Deogie!
IHaveTwoCows, Not The Notorious D.O.G.?
averagedrunk, That’s always what I thought but never got a straight answer.
somethingsnappy, I had an all black cat named Calico. Named him when I was 2 years old.
RIPandTERROR, 
Got a tux Norwegian forest cat we’ve named Rorschach. Also goes by “Love Shack” and Shaqhttps://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/7403bc3a-447a-4d1f-b5ad-588e2a6d621b.webp
Facelikeapotato, So floofy!
DagonPie, 
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.
PraiseTheSoup, More of a Crash Bash fan myself but to each their own
itsonlygeorge, I had a cat named Jet. His full name was Jet Blackjack Miami Brown.
Donebrach, 
Yet his LEGAL name was undoubtedly Meowmeowmeow.
BarrelAgedBoredom, Sounds like the name of a detective in a 70s’ blacksploitarion satirical crime dramedy
JagFel, My girlfriend named her cat Neko. I named him Potato.
He often responds to Dumbdumb.

Facelikeapotato, Who needs smarts with glorious fur like that?
Captain_Waffles, Lol, one of my friends cats responds to No and Idiot 🤣
Blackmist, Like a person, a cat’s full name is only ever invoked when it has done something wrong.
SgtAStrawberry, Cats have three names, the everyday one, the fancy longer one and their private personal one.
It’s completely normal.
funkless_eck, you can’t paraphrase the poem and not link it!
SgtAStrawberry, I wanted to have a interaction with someone else. I wouldn’t have gotten it if I linked it myself.
tslnox, Also read The Unadulterated Cat by Terry Pratchett
SgtAStrawberry, I haven’t heard about that one, will check it out.

starman2112, 
I still dream of adopting a group of cats named Magnus Nyarlsen, Hikaru Nakamewra, and Gary Catsparov
selokichtli, Checkmate.
semi_sentient, En Pawssant
BigNote, 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.
Madison420, Uhh Nancy Reagan was known as the blowjob queen of Hollywood so…
swab148, 
Please do not the cat
BloodSlut, Nancy Reagan, the blowjob queen?
The OG Throat GOAT?
The THROATUS?
That Nancy Reagan?
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA, 
Maybe she likes licking cat dong don’t cat slut shame.
MrQuallzin, One of our cat’s name is Hazel. It’s short for Hazelnut Megalodon
Trainguyrom, 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

Facelikeapotato, What an adorable girl!
NounsAndWords, 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.
rockerface, I mean, still could pretend it’s in Japanese so he’s a demon lord
NegativeInf, I have a Shiba Inu I call Levi. But it’s short for Leviathan J Foxtrot.
NPC, I had a cat called “D.C.” it stood for Dead Cat. Or was a fully black cat I saved from certain death in the wood, hence the name
SiegeRhino, we had a cat named Sweetie Pie that we shortened to SP and eventually started calling her thing like Sauce Pan or Sausage Pizza
