I stumbled across this on iplayer the other evening, the dogs name is Colin from accounts who is working on a big merger. Or Colin for short.
It's a must watch. Also check out No Activity with the same couple.
Colin was the name of the dog in Spaced also, as I recall.
Thanos - Destroyer of Worlds is my friend’s cat.
Colleague had a cat named Vincent the Terrible. 🙂
We had a gerbil called Ramon. A girl.
Named after the penguin in Happy Feet. She was grumpy as hell but wonderful.
She's got it going on....
The Norfolk terrier next to me in the cafe earlier was called Zeus - small dog syndrome..
I’d go right back through Bob Mortimers Twitter timeline if I was looking for a name for a pet. He often has them for sale, £8.00 per annum (no returns).
I’d have bought ‘Chad Salad’ off him long ago if I had a cat.
Mine and my brothers gerbils in the late 80s were called Gizmo and Spike
A colleagues gerbils were called Gerry and Billy
This is Grace and Ada.

When she was little it was often changed to LoveShoeLace
My daughter has named most of our pets down the years.
So far we've had Sushi and Bonkers the goldfish.
Sven and Leonardo the hamsters.
Tyger and Moose the cats.
A funny name for a dog is funnier if the dog has terrible recall
In anticipation of this, my stepson's friend called their puppy Eileen. Then he could stand in the park shouting "Come on, Eileen". At least he'd thought it through a bit.
Mrs dB named our geckos Absolute **** & Cellophane Wrapper, I have no idea why.
My first English Springer was named Spanners. Then came another, Danielle, then a cocker Francesca. So when we had all 3, Span, Dan and Fran.
Still have Dan and Fran, with another cocker Florence (short name Flo).
In our village we have a Mister Darcy as well as a Lord Percy.
My partner's hamster was called 4.99, as that's what it cost.
My goldfish were Benson and Hedges
Years ago my new housemate's cat was called Boutros Boutros - Ghali
I was early 20's and had absolutely no interest or knowledge in geo-political affairs. I asked him what kind of stupid name was that for a cat.........both a good friendship and a new found interest in the world was born that day.
I tried to get the mother-in-law to name their new puppy Alexa.
Our two male Ridgebacks are named after MotoGP riders. We even got their kennel names entwined with them (we get on really well with the breeder so gave her permission) So we have Rossi (Jimanns The Doctor) and Miller (Jimanns Jackass) Our first Ridgeback was named after the Ellsworth Rogue MTB. His kennel name was Morlingcourt perfect Rogue, aka Rogue.
I had a dog called Blacksmith. Whenever I kicked him up the arse, he made a bolt for the door
I had a pet salamander called Tiny. He was my newt.
Seriously though I had a blue merle called Rover. He was a once in a lifetime dog, loved by all and a real character. Lived to be 16 years old and active till the last hour.

If my daughter had been born in the era of twitter, I suspect she would hate me for this reason.
Kevin.
A near-neighbours whom I sometimes see when walking.my own dawgiepup, is called Kevin.
Just fabulous.

My name is Cougar and I approve of this message.
he could stand in the park shouting “Come on, Eileen”
If I had a dog, I'd name it Jesus. Park-related hilarity aside, it'd be great when the evangelists came knocking on the door asking "have you found Jesus?" Yes, he's just had a poo in the yard and he's now in the kitchen turning water into piss.

Remember my tale earlier on this thread of how our cats' sister is named Neville? I forgot to mention, there's previous here, their mum was named Kevin.
So we've had Jester - male cat, RIP Fat Lad
Sparticus (sparky) - female cat named by a 7 yr old boy
Herbert - german shepherd
Mason - german shepherd x golden retriever
Mason is my least favourite but we didn't pick it. He'll be off to guide dog training school next year and we will miss him badly
Came across a lady walking her dog called Jeremy Beagle
And we have the winner
Had a rat called Fungus about 10 Yr ago. My OH used to have a cat called String
Have also met a bearded dragon called Dave (who the owner then found out it was female but refused to change her name to Davina)
My brother in law's cat is Minerva.
We had a goldfish called Longpoo, because it often had a long poo trailing out of its arse
I know they are not pets but a few years ago there was an article on the news about a couple of vultures that had escaped from a wildlife park. They were called Vomit and Satan.
Erik the cat
Previously had a siamese called Antonio Banderas by the ex
We used to have a sausage dog draught excluder. He was called Derek Nimrod The Dog.
If I ever become not allergic to everything, and we happen to get a dog, he's getting called Derek Nimrod. 😁
All our pets had normal names:
Tortoise - Beano
Two guinea pigs - Tao and Snooby
Hamster - Dizzy
Cat - Puss
Horse - Sally (dreadful name)
My two black labs, Biscuit and Leonard. <br />Biscuit was potentially going to be called princess strawberry by our 5 year old, but that got nixed sharpish. Good fun shouting biscuit at the local dog walk routes and seeing lots of ears perk up 🙂
Leonard came to us as Lenny, with suspicions that the previous owner was a bit of a racist dickhead. So either Len or Leonard. <br />Both sorely missed. <br />Apparently my next dog isn’t allowed to be called Christopher or Simon, as it’s weird…
My brother has 2 guinea pigs named after serial killers... Bundy and Gacey (?)
Had a cat called Cooking Fat in the 70s. Then a hyperactive dog called Zuma
I was slightly savaged by a neighbour's dog.
Dog is called Dave. Owner's name is Dave. My name is Dave.
I told him it would be worth reporting for the amusement of answering the inevitable series of questions. He reckoned I'd just get done for wasting police time and taking the pi$$ out of the constabulary...
That’s a whole world of Daves.
I think World of Daves did a session for Mark Riley on 6 Music last week
Mate has a golden lab he called Geoffrey. He had a brown dog coat for it.
He called it Geoffrey because we had a friend called Geoffrey who wore a brown leather jacket and had blond hair.
