So do ours, unfortunately one of them thinks that his name is the sound that the cat food makes as it is poured into the bowl

They learn that name faster than their own.

They are also trained to come when I whistle for them.
Our big (21 pounds) male cat responds to his name, Arturo, or just "Big Guy". I think he thinks he has two names.

In the past I've named cats after favourite book characters.

Our present cat got her name because of her liking for spending time on top of the wardrobe and tall bookcases.

We call her Hillary. (Edmund not Clinton)

Since he likes the computer chair he could have a name like The Geek.

I like the Tiger Woods suggestion myself. He has stripes and he plays with a golf ball. Perfect.

So........what would you name a cat that just loves to follow you down the hallway, and pounce on your leg?

Seriously, he wraps his paws around my ankle and bites my feet.

He especially likes to hit me right behind the knee.....I've learned to walk slowly here.

miserable 17 lb fur-ball.

Guess it wouldn't matter what he was called.......he won't answer anyway. My daughter rescued him off the streets as a tiny bit of fluff and THEN remembered she was allergic....so who had to take him? Mom.

she named him "Sammy" Why, I'll never understand.

But, he's crawled into our hearts and here he'll stay.

The last cat we had started out as Missy, but somehow the name never seemed to fit. After a year of calling her "Kitty" because her name was just somehow wrong, I finally gave up and had the vet change it to Kitty on her records - it was a much better fit!

We have one who was named IMO by her original dad. IMO stands for "Information Management Officer", but it is also the Hawaiian word for twinkle, as in how sunlight twinkles off the water, but also can mean twinkling of the eye.

When her dad moved away, and she adopted me IMO just didn't seem to fit, so now she's "Kitty Girl". She's a beautiful subdued calico.

Just be warned when it comes to Shadow: we had a little plastic play castle downstairs in my room and every night, except for Sunday nights, the cat would spend the time from sun-down to sun-up running up and sliding back down the slide.

And he levitated...
