My dad named one of our cats growing up Zappa (from the late great musician Frank Zappa..), RazzMaTazz was another cat I had growing up and who looked just like Tybalt (big, furry, black, male) and I think even Tybalt is unusual. The vet mispronounces it everytime we go to the vet..Has no one seen Romeo and Juliet!?!

Erika,

I must admit that I call him Maxi too. Just seems natural. He has quite a few nicknames or pet names that I call him.

Not really.

My mom is the one gave our old cats' names.

Dusty and Button. They died years ago.. They were great cats.

Echo is the most odd name for my cats. When I got her (she WAY too young, only 5 weeks old), she would cry and whine constantly. My BF (at the time) and I were trying to brainstorm on names. At that moment, she was whining so loud in another room, it sounded like it was Echoing through out the entire house. So, the name just stuck but absolutely love it! I have not ever heard of another cat named Echo and it's just so cute!

Dont laugh, but I named one of my male striped cats 'pretty' because he ALWAYS looks like he's smiling or grinning....He had a ear infection when he was younger and the vet died laughing when she realized he was male...'pretty' is a little feminine *blushing* It's too late to change it though since he knows his name and seems to like it.

One of my kittens I named 'Smokey the Bear' (smokey for short) because it is gray and looks like a teddy bear!

I named another 'Roswell' because he has alien shaped eyes.

and another 'Spika' because her fur sticks up everywhere nomatter how much I pet her!

We had a kitty named Frazzle - named after the monster puppet on Sesame Street from days past.

We also had one named P.C. which stood for Porch Cat because he was a stray who would only live in the porch, and never wanted to venture any farther into the house.

Then there was Scurf- he was an old stray we rescued years ago who had a flea collar on when we found him that was so tight it had 'scurfed' the hair and skin off of his neck. He healed up nicely from it though, and is still living with my neighbor of the time (we have sinced moved).

Oh- and lets not forget my moms kitty Q-Tip. She was a tiny little thing who came from the shelter, all grey except for her legs and feet. She was so small they looked like little white Q-tip cotton swabs sticking out from her little kitty body

Right now I have Roxy Gogo which people think is strange.. He has 2 siblings which will NOT come near me but I named them anyhow, Mojo Gogo and Bay-bay Gogo, and their (now deceased mom) was Fifi Gogo. I guess I threw in the gogo in so they could be a family..

Before that the cats names were normal like snuggles, cuddles and marty and many other run of the mill names..
