Cat owners sometimes have an overflowing imagination to name their four -legged animal. For some, you might even believe in a joke …
Humans do not have a monopoly on eccentric first names. Pets inherit more often than you think, and sometimes they are much worse. It must be said that the masters are not subject to any rule: in France, civil status does not identify the identity of animals. The owners can therefore give free rein to their imagination. They can dare what they would never dare for a child. Some choose such a small name, such as an affectionate wink between the master and the animal. Sometimes also, it’s a way of expressing your personality or passions. A fan of series will call his cat “Gollum”, a gourmet will choose “Nougatine”, a geek will go to “Pixel” for example.
There are also those who want to stand out. An original name, it is caught more, it makes the animal unique and it attracts attention when you talk about it around you or to the veterinarian. Generally, these wacky first names are not given by chance. They say something about the emotional bond, the humor and the identity of the master or the animal. Be that as it may, it does not prevent that at times some first names may surprise when you hear them for the first time. The veterinarian Hugo, aka @hugooveto, knows something about it …
On the Tiktok social network, he dedicated a video to cat names, “The craziest I had to shout in the waiting room”as he indicates in the title. He also specifies that “These are all real first names”, no was not invented by him. And the least we can say is that this young veterinarian has already seen all the colors. Among those who have marked it the most, there is the first name … “Urssaf”, or “Cracotte du 35”, “Swag”, “Jean-Luc Mélanchat”, “Chat 4”, and more confusing … someone baptized his animal “Adolphette”.
In comments, several Internet users have in turn admitted the somewhat crazy names they gave to their cat, and the funny situations in which they found themselves in spite of themselves. “I just adopted a little kitten and I called her Cat Moss”, said one of them. “My cat was called Jean-Claude and when we took him to the vet, we said JC so as not to hit shame … The vet called us to tell us that Jesus Christ had come out of his operation”, said another Internet user. “I called mine Gilbert, it is blind”, admitted an owner. And you, are you more “classic first name” for an animal or “crazy first name”?
