This is Izzy.

AKA Isabella, Queen Isabella Greypelt, Izzy Busy, Isabella Busy Boo, The Puke Monster and The Monochromatic Quadropus. At least one of those has one of those inane songs to go with it.

We have two brothers. Their names are Rocky and Rambeaux.

We call Rocky "Rockity Pockity Man" and Rambeaux is "Rambles Wambles Tambles Mambles."

yeah, that works nicely

Her name is Masha, but I call her "Estás bien fea" ("you are so ugly"). She doesn't mind.

Why dignify such obvious lies with a reaction 😒

[–] waggz@programming.dev 5 points 1 week ago

Gadget, or sometimes just Gadg, more often Gadgey-poo. The other brat is Nova, or most commonly Nova-beans. https://youtube.com/shorts/Mn643qQTSlI

Percy aka Percy-Cat and No, you've already been fed!

[–] cod@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I’ve got two. A void and (I think) a blue point.

The void is Apollo, but his nickname is “what is that in your mouth”

The blue point is Islay, but her nickname is “how the fuck did you get the toilet paper again”

One of my cats is called Pipping but I call him Chonky (He's actually not chonky but behaves like he is.)

We have a runt who barely weighs 7 pounds but eats like a fatass. When I do the rounds filling bowls, she follows me to eat the absolute freshest food just placed.

My cats name is Jimmy and sometimes I call him Oggy, especially when he's chasing bugs (no cockroaches here but I hope you get the reference)

Nova and Athena. SillyButt and BabyKitty.

A sphynx cat and a tortoiseshell cat laying next to each other on a sunny windowsill.

On the left is Babyman, also known as Chickenman. He has two names because he's either a babyman where he's all cuddly and wants to be cozy or he's a Chickenman because he looks like an uncooked chicken as he runs like a madman all over the house when he's hyper.

On the right is Freyja. Typically goes by 'Frey', but when she's in a hyper mood (which is extremely rare) we call her 'Turbo Cylinder' because she's very tubular in shape at high speed.

Anya (she and all of her litter mates were named for Buffy TVS characters): frequently referred to as Fluffy Girl, Hissy Face, or Lady Shedsalot

Ozymandias (named for one of my favorite poems, but also to kind of keep with the Buffy theme): Oz, Ozzy, Bubby, Fuzzy Boy, Big Boy, Squeaky, Fluff For Brains

[–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Gusfraba (gusi, gus) and genebre (gine)

[–] neomachino@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

One of our cats is Meshe, we call her Moo. Meshe -> Mooshe -> Moo.

Bonus: we have a dog named Gismo, we call him big boobs. Don't ask how we got there, it makes sense.

[–] leauxhigh@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Dexie, or Puddin Poopers

[–] KittenHippie@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

My sister calls my male young cat Åse, a nordic SENIOR female name. I have no idea how she got it.

[–] Sk3rgi0@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

Zim and Kylo have become "Silky" and "Fluffy Butt".

Zim gives me Invader Zim vibes and Kylo's name I inherited when I rescued him. Not like he answers to it or anything.
