Is anyone else geeky enough to do this?

[notfred]

name your pets after something tech related? A computer co, programming language, CPU arcitechture, etc.

My cat is named Perl. Not Pearl, but Perl. She's also attacknig the cursor on the screen as I type this.

Has anyone else done this?

I think that kicks arse having a pet named perl . My next cat will be called "derefenced pointer"

I named the computer of my LAN after Ultima VII characters, is that geeky enough?

 

[Sluggo]

I have a truck named RAM

I've done worse... I have two cats named after Star Trek characters.... But I also have two ferrets with names cool enough to even things out: Minerva and Nirvana.

My dog is "Piper"

<---Cessna pilot, but a dog names Cessna sounds a bit too stupid

 

[rgwalt]

My gecko is named Kubrick, my skink is named Niven, and my ball python is named Martha Stewart.

I just took in a parakeet. I haven't decided on a name for him yet. I need something computer related but not too abnormal. I was thinking about Cat5e, but that just won't cut it.

My cat is just named Cat. I guess I'm not very creative, but it does roll off the tongue easy enough

 

[joohang]

I name my computers after Zelda characters.

 

[MrCodeDude]

Heh, my dog is named after my internet alias

I had a cat that was named "Kitty" along with another cat named "kissa" which is finnish for cat. Of course we had an adorable dog named Koida too. It is of course finnish for dog.

Now have 2 dogs ( german shepard and lab, and german sheppard and rot ) named Tasha and Tigger. Tasha is as close as I get to geeky. Is it bad to have a dog naimed after a dead ST:TNG charctor?

<edit>
Oh, and a ferret named Elmo. Don't ask.

I'm pretty geeky when it comes to tolkien stuff... I'm not crazy enough to name my first-born son Gil-galad or something though :Q....or am I? :Q

I once seriously considered naming my daughter Meryl after Metal Gear Solid (note: I don't have a daughter nor I am married)
