Once, one of our cats was caught behind the books on a shelf, and when she ran away, a screwdriver fell down. I never did figure out what she was doing back there, but I know for sure neither of the humans in the house left the screwdriver there. ---

Lucy is Gremlin - no. She’s a cranky ol’ feline, not a Gremlin. Dot is now Bounder. That I could almost see. She is constantly bounding from one place to another, will not sit still. Mayme is Sloey. Nope. Just nope. ---

> [@Wallaby](#): > > I just stick with ‘Cat’. > > It ain’t going to come when I call it, anyway… We had a cat for whom we kids were supposed to come up with a name. When we couldn’t agree on one he ended up being TC - short for The Cat. When we got a kitten later she became LC for little Cat. ---

I got “Mrs Grump” on the first try and “Minerva” on the second try for ours. The first is too precious but I guess the second has a classic quality to it. Her actual name is Maizie but I mainly just call her “Cat-Cat”. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cat-name-generator/699705.md?page=1)
