I have a lot of runners up, like Amrito for Amy, or Bradinglesmirch for Briar, but I think the dumbest has to be Scott Von Scott of the Scottsdale Scotts Who Did Scott So Scottily in the Battle of Scotteen Twelve.

So I ask you, what’s the stupidest thing you’ve ever called your furry friends?

    I had a cat whose name was Kirby and his nickname eventually turned to Care Bear (because Kirby>Kirbs>Kirb-ber) and now my parents have a cat named Barry and he is Ber-ber.

    There’s also Rumball (Remy) and Kimball (Kimmy).

    And the two I have now: Sullivan who is Little Bean (Sully-bean) and Elliot who is Little Moose (because Elliot Moose).

    None of these are crazy silly I guess but I hadn’t realized before that I tend to give cats matching nicknames.

    I also have a dog who is a beagle and his name is Sir Hodgley III. He doesn’t respond to any nicknames and there is great argument as to his real breed. He is not a real dog but a garden decoration, but I know in my heart of hearts that Sir Hodgley III is a beagle.
