I watched a video today and a woman’s pet sphynx cat that she called Nudacris. That tickled me Grin

Awesome name! i've only come across Colin, Frank etc, but yours definitely tops those 🤣

Well I'm biased, but Cheddar is the best pet name. Unfortunately I can't take credit for it. Ad I adopted her with the name. It just suits her perfectly.

A rather scruffy dog called Nuffing.
Another one called Shag.
A cat called Scratch.
