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?

As another cat owner here is the list of names that are not his name;

Him (as in, "Is Him a good?"), Tubs, Tubsalubs, Stink-O Man (I will sing, "Show me! Show you! Stink-O Man! Stink-O Man!"), Kneady/Needy/Needful/Kneadums, Hanger the Danger Kitty, All The Speed, and Whosa Baby (which involves picking him up and snuggling him thoroughly while he pretends to hate it, but the minute I open my arms to try to let him go he gives me a pathetic look until I snuggle him some more, a game which has gone on for tens of minutes before)
