Laura got that name at the shelter and we liked it, so she is still Laura, but depending on her behaviour she will also be called "sweetie", "our baby girl" or "that little bi***" if she's been demolishing the kitchen, for example
Carter actually was a stray at my parents' house who had long before belonged to a family in the area but when they moved away, they left him (how cruel is that!?!
such a cute and easy going cat...!) and when he turned up in our backyard, we referred to him as "the male", in German " der Kater".
When last May I moved in with my bf - and the male as well!
- we took him to the vet and to make it look a bit more like a name, we changed the spelling to Carter.
