Don't you know all dogs should be named Spot or Rover? I'm the complete opposite of a Nascar fan, but I think those names are very cute and they mean something to you. My cats are Lightning (for the Tampa Bay hockey team), Minnie, and Goofy. I always get "You named your cats after a mouse and a dog?" Yes. Yes, I did.
At least it was your dog names your mom harasses you for. My MIL did not like the name we picked for our first DD at all. The day we found out it was a girl, we met both sides for lunch and brought cards that said "It's a Girl" with a sonogram picture that had her full name. First name is Haley, middle name is my maiden name, and our last name. His mother says, "Well, you still have time to change it."

His grandmother says "Why can't you name her something nice, like Mary?" Her name and MIL's name. Family, sometimes they just lose that censor that says "Don't say that! It's not nice."
