My cat, Starbunny (who passed away coming up 2 years ago
) took us about two days. I named her Star to begin with but she had this habbit of bouncing like a rabbit so my brother kept calling her bunny, and the two names just collided. It turned out great :)
Our other cat Maynerd came prenamed, but we nicknamed him Meanies.
My two new cats I named after two of my favorite songs, Helena and Iris.
And our newest cat was also prenamed, Missy.
As for our dogs, we argued about our female sheppard cross for awhile until I came up with Sara who has also been given the affectionate nickname Bear, for she sounds like one. :lol:
Then there's our second dog, Tipper, who was pretty easy to name because of the tip on his tail. Lots of imagination there, huh?
And the last of our animals are my four birds.
I named my first Mohawk as he obvious had a mohawk :P
Then there was Mike who I named after our deceased dog and Mike Dirnt from Green Day. :D
Then my fat baby bird, Chibi, just because he was this big baby and the name felt best suited. And last is Kuro, who I named after the little dude from Cardcaptors which was an awesome TV show I grew up with.
