We used to name our pets foreign names for the type of animal they were. We've had Minou (french), Nekko (Japanese), and Gato (Italian) for some of our cats. We also had a white cat with calico patches that we named Crash (also had 1 blue & 1 green eye), and her brother was a tabby who we named Taxi - we thought it was hysterical calling for them "Taxi, Crash".
