Oh my word cats have funny names!!!
Ill have to explain Sleeves' middle name and many may think we are slighty insane afterwards...
His name is Sleeves Pombina Broughton-Livingston


So Sleeves is the name of a record shop near by and loooong before we had a cat I said it would be a cool name for a cat, so it stuck (despite very strange looks from anyone I tell his name to...)
Pombina was the name of a donkey Mark and I met on Holiday in Portugal, my little brother and sister (3 and 5) who were also with us, got lots of rides on her back and she was really pretty with flowers all over her and stuff so we thought the name was so funky it has stuck with us for ages and although Pombina was a female we still say it's Sleeves' middle name, also my username...
and Broughton-Livingston is mine and Marks surnames combined...
We're getting a new kitten next week who we are calling Nismo, middle name TBC but Ill keep you informed

Sophie Grace is the only furbaby I gave a middle name. No real explanation, either...it just sounded good!

They dont neccesarily have middle names, but we do call them hyphenates.

Ghibli- Gibby Butt-Buttresson (I have NO Idea how this came about.)
Paige- Pixie Pigglesnort (It suites her. She eats like a pig and instead of purring she snores.)
Molly- MooMoo (i suppose hers doesn't count.)

No middle names here just super long show titles and registered names such as:

Silver Double Grand Premier Captivating Tickle Me Elmo

and

Bronze Double Grand Champion Grafton Sing a Rainbow

All the kitties in our family have middle names, you bet! My parents' cats are:

Dylan Ishmael Kerns -- We named him for Bob Dylan/Dylan Thomas, and for "Call me Ishmael," opening line of one of our family's favorite classics.

Sassy Lane Kerns -- My mom named her after the kitty played by Sally Field in "Homeward Bound"... and Lane is my mother's maiden name.

Abby Helen Kerns -- Named for my mother's maternal grandmother, Abby Kuhn, who wore her hair exactly the way Miss Abby wears the black splotch on her little white haid! :-) Helen is my mom's mother's first name, and my mom's middle name.

I have no children, so I've given my cats the names I would have chosen for my kids. My kitties are:

Clyde Lee Kerns -- Clyde is my father's middle name, which came from the grand shipbuilding river that runs through Glasgow; and Lee comes from my father's great great great uncle, Lee Neal, who was an Illinois attorney who helped draft the 14th Amendment!

Pearl Noelle Kerns -- Pearl is just a lovely name that I've always liked, and it honors Pearl Dykes, a wonderful woman who was our babysitter for three years when my brother and I were kids. Noelle is the feminine version of my brother Noel's name, and I chose it to honor him... but... if I may feel sorry for myself for a moment... when I introduced my brother to Pearl Noelle and told him I'd named her for him, he rolled his eyes and said, "It's a CAT." So it meant nothing to him. ~ sigh ~

Some of mine do:
Emmy, her real name is Emily but I call her Emmy, so Emmy Pants. I have NO idea where the "pants" part came from, it just popped out one day.
Sarah is Sarah Bell, sometimes I call her Sarabel
Jackson doesnt have one but I do call him Greenie a lot, after his green eyes, and Pumpkin, sometimes I call her Pumpkin Pie.

Katie - Kathleen Mary (the name my parents would have given my youngest brother if he'd been a girl!)

Gracie Shanainai - for the character on the TV show Martin with so much attitude. It was originally her first name given to her by the nuns that rescued her, since she had so much attitude, even as a tiny kitten. Still does.

Peter James - just liked how it sounded

Claire - still working on it!

Both my boys have middle names.

Gandalf Aaron
Samwise Gamgee

Their last name is my last name.


The cat I had as a child was Bubbles Marie.

Hey I gotta have something extra when I'm scolding them.
