I can’t believe nobody has mentioned Philadelphia’s favorite drag queen and host (ess) of Gay Bingo Nights - Carlotta Ttendant!

When I use the porn-star formula (name of 1st pet + name of 1st street you lived on) I get a very drag-queen-ish name: Chin-Chin Tulane.

You had a pet named **Exit**?

Even if that’s only a first name, it sounds weird.

**Pepper Mill** generated her name this way. When I try it I get **Laddy Colfax** , which sounds more like a ball player.

Long story short: I got a teddy bear as a thank you gift when I was 4 years old and a ringbearer in a wedding. When the flower girl asked me what I was going to name it, the first thing I saw was an exit sign. I loved that teddy bear and when we got a kitten, I insisted it was named after my teddy bear.
