Great names for cats. We had cats called Vlad and Ghengis :)

DD1 has a siamese fighting fish called sevirus snape Grin I know he wasnt a real baddie in the end but the fish has swishy fins like a cloak

The names are part of popular culture now so go for it, I think they are cool names for your kittens, who are very cute indeed. I get my two tomorrow so can join you in awwwwwwness!

It is a bit strange to do this. I think fictional killers is just on the side of "okay" although not really my taste. Real killer names would be awful and completely tasteless.

We had two budgies called Itchy and Scratchy.

Budgies are a total drag as pets,i was not sorry when they fell off their respective perches.

I would baulk at calling my cat Myra.

Toaster24 · 11/06/2012 16:59

Myra might be a bit much for a cat, although would be OK for a budgy IMO.

I say go for it...

I once had a hamster called Bob, Lord of Evil. His brother was called Spot.

Actually I find the names very fitting for 2 cats, what after all are they going to be doing to all the local wildlife?

EnjoyResponsibly · 11/06/2012 19:17

Not like you're calling them Ronnie and Reggie is it Grin

How weird.

Lulabellarama - Im a vet nurse - people register pets names with us, could write a book on funny, clever and just plain odd names!!
