What’s in a name?

5Ws Wednesday

I don’t have anything insightful that I’m wondering about today, so I did a Google search for: random questions that start with a W. I have some interesting answers for this one:

What’s the worst name you could give a pet?

Now, I don’t think these answers are the worst, but let me tell you about the pets I know or know of through friends or family.

Let’s begin with the yellow lab that my middle sister had. His name was Bo. However, his AKC registered name was Bodacious Tatas.

Josh’s oldest niece has a cat named Shitlord. From what I hear, he’s the equivalent of my Nugget. Who was so named because I had another cat that the vet described as a spicy chicken nugget. Faye, by the way, was described as a regular chicken nugget. When we got Nugget, she was definitely on the spicy side.

I have a knitting friend who has an equally spicy cat named Lucifer. But I don’t know if it’s actually Lucifer or Lucipurr. I think it’s the first one, but I think Lucipurr would be a good one too. I want to say I remember her telling us that the vet refused to accept the cat’s name, so it must have actually been Lucifer, maybe spelled with a U? Lucifur?

I don’t think there’s a bad name for a pet. I mean, you can’t get much worse than the name of the devil himself. But with a cat, if the name fits…

What are your thoughts? What’s the worst name you could give a pet?
