I was just wondering, since we are all so name-obsessed, what are your favorite names for pets? :)

My favourite kind are uncommon 'people names' that have meanings relating the animals' character/apperance. Never really keep a list because I think you need to meet them to know what will suit.

My rabbits ...
Branwen Felicity = Branwen means 'fair raven' (as in dark beauty), Felicity is for her original name Lucky. I liked the sentiment but she needed something a bit more dignified.
&
Casey Jack = Has a roguish 'cowboy' feel to it which suits him. Casey means 'fearless' and he is really. Jack as in 'jumping Jack flash'.

Few years ago I had goldfish named Beaufort, Coral and Caspian. Still think those are pretty cool. Named them after seas because fish live in the sea.

In future I'd love to adopt a dog and name them Tenessee, just think it's such an awesome name [because of the Sugarland song, and Tenessee Williams] but not sure a child would appreciate it.

Tennessee is one of my all time most favorite names that i will probably never use.

I dont know how a kid would feel about it, but i ADORE it!

Same here :)
I've used it for a story character too, her siblings also have state names. Rather like doing themed sibsets in stories.
