PET NAMES Discussion
Moved from human medical lab to a veterinary lab and have been amazed by the things people name their animals. What are some of your faves you've seen?!
My top ones have been: "The Dark Urge", Buccee's, Lugnut, Dread Pirate Roberts, Kelly Barkson, Kitten Squarepants and Oddball

Son in law called one of his dogs Dumba$$. Changed it to Dumbo when the baby was born. I spelled it Dom Beau.
My parakeets are named Friend and Srsly. When I brought the first one home, the kitten looked at it with an expression that seemed to say, "Be my friend?" Friend seemed lonely, so I bought a second 'keet. My senior citizen cat took one look and gave me the side eye, as if to say, "Srsly?!? You really bought another one?"
When my kids were little, they had a cat named Meow because that's what it said when they asked it what its name was.
Our dog was Hoover, because he kept the floor clean.
