I told Justin if he didn't behave, he'd have to sleep in the garage again. He's only four, but he has to learn.

It's trickier for me when my naming system is a bit different.

Billy took to pissing all over the walls, so we had to have him killed.

So... your kid's name is Admiral Fluffybreches?

Ellie hates it when I express her anal glands, but I can't stand to be around her when she backed up.

That's why I always assume people are talking about their dogs.

Sam just graduated from college and Mary is finishing high school

Me: wow, they have to be so smart! What breed are they?

Is this a distant relation of Lady Fuzzypants, who, after summer, often needs assistance with seeds and twigs caught in her hair?

  1. When they get out of the house and you're screaming their name out on the street, a human name sounds like some terrible drama.

"Kelly! Kelly, come back! Come here, girl! Kelly, where are you? Kelly, I've got treats!"

My sister didn't really get the concept of names for pets when we were younger. We won some rabbits from a fair once and I named mine Licorice and she named hers Sarah. I'll never forget the horrified look on my friend's face when my mom once casually told my sister to, "Take some food out to Sarah's pen, she's been kicking at the bars all day!"

Making up demon names is fun and whimsical. Neth'sin the Ethereal Tormentor likes chin scratches, will rip strangers to shreds, and sometimes defiles laundry.

Aww, I too had a bunny named Licorice.

I'm typing on my nice mechanical keyboard, as is standard for software developers.

Although getting new gigs has been hard recently. Potential employers always look so disappointed when I show up to job interviews.

Every millenial ever: human names for pets, pet names for humans.

Dog:

Dave

Their literal son, fruit of their loins; their flesh and blood:

I do recall that my coworker's son got himself wedged between the stove and fridge, so #3 is plausible for Human-Jennifer.

Which reminds me... The best thing about giving your pet people names, is eventually somebody with that name will become a fixture in your life and then you get to refer to them as "Human Dave" and still call the pet Dave.

He'll probably work here for more

In grade eight he broke his leg
So we got drunk and sick

These are the Daves I know, I know
These are the Daves I know

They all have their own hands
But they come from different moms

Man, this cat can swing
He weighs almost 50 pounds
And he delivers my paper on time
