None from either list here.  I'm sure there will be a few more Jaffa's around somewhere, but perhaps not that many.  I doubt there are many Mosi's wandering around.

I had a dog that I wanted to call Shadow years ago but didn't get my own way  :P

All of mine including Sasha RIP have had their names given by their previous owner as they were her breeding queens before I rehomed them from her.  She also has kids with first names beginning with S.   Skye is from the same breeder but we got her as a kitten and thought we would keep with the S theme  :rofl:

I have a Lucy, and have had a Charlie from that popular list. Not named any from the unusual list I must say!

Mind you Gwyngala is pretty unusual - (apparently is Cornish for September - because I got her in September and she came from Cornwall)  ;)

Zeta isnt common I suppose - but I didnt name her.

One of my customers cats is called Dennis - I like that  ;D

lol @ Sir Lix a Lot

"I like big cats an' I cannot lie..."


I don't really go for 'popular' names, mine have the ones they came with. I did add the Corporal bit though but that was just the way he looks at us.
