Nerdfighters

ok so my family recently got some new pets (a new kitten and two turtles), and subsequently had to name them:
the new kitten is called Sapho- after the famous poet
the two new turtles are called Aragorn and Arwen- after the characters from Lord of the Rings
we also have a dog called Sam Wise Gamgee- also after the character from Lord of the Rings
two gold fish called Ronald Weasly (harry potter) and Darth (after Darth Vader from Star Wars)
two birds called Legolas and Gimli- also after the characters from Lord of the Rings (we're a big lord of the rings family)
and finally a cat called Yoda (star wars)
the only animal not named something nerdy is a cat called Sagwa (no idea where i got that idea, it just came to my mind)
p.s u might be thinking that i have a ton of pets, which i do, but they have been acquired over a long period of time and also my grandmother lives with us and she likes animals and she a Jewish grandmother and not to stereotype, but she is VERY good at guilting people into doing stuff

Well when I was growing up I lived with my aunts, grandmother, mother and sister and my aunt had a parrot named "El Chavo" and my other aunt had a dog named Benji after the movie Benji about a stray dog (which he was). Short story is Benji ran around the house like a schizophrenic on acid and my aunt would ALWAYS say "Benji behave" so after a few years the parrot heard this everyday and he started saying out of the blue "Benji BEE-HAIVE" every time Benji ran it was so funny, I miss them. Now I have a cat named Ferngully, it was my favorite movie, considering getting another named Hexxus hahahah

That's awesome that they all have fantasy/ different out of the ordinary names. nothing gets under my skin more than people who name their animals people's names. i dunno it just sounds so WEIRD! like someone could be talking about their pet and you'll think they're talking about a person for a min. crazy. but i shouldn't talk because if i ever have kid's i'm not going to name them ordinary everyday people names.

That's actually why I named my bird Sami, that and the fact that we have no idea if he's a boy or a girl.
It's fun to talk to him and about him like he's a person.
We treat him like one.
And it's easier if he has a person name.

I plan on naming my future pet octopus Ocho.

I really like yoda as the cat name, and hey dude atleast your pets are named funny things rather than the boring cliche ones that you hear all the time.

my cat had kittens over the summer. 5 kittens. there is athos and porthos, 2/3 muskateers. then there is pudge, because a) she(we thought the kitten was a he at the time, but no piontin changing it) is very pudgy and b) because my twin and i are john green fans so we named the kiiten after miles "pudge" halter from looking for alaska. then there is hermione. first it was howie, but it turned out to be a girl, and my mother and sister and i are harry potter fans. the fifth passed away young, but for the few weeks he was alive he was alastor. he was born with a hole on its back which later healed, along with its eye going blind, it then had a blue sort of glaze to it. that kitten was a fighter.

omg that's an insane amount of pets. I'm not allowed to get any more pets because my dad's already iffy about our one dog.

her name's knacksot (german for sunflowerseed) pronounced ka-knock-sote. nobody can pronounce it, it's hilarious watching people try

if i ever do get another pet im gonna go for a nerdy name :P

I got two rabbits and named them Hazel and Fiver from Watership Down. Sadly, Fiver died, but I still have Hazel.
