I have a cat named Dandelion.

'Zolten' is a common Hungarian name, it's my wife's maiden name and most importantly, it's the name of Dracula's dog.
You'll never call him Fifi again.
My nickname when I was young was Teddy, so people would call me Teddy Bear.
My mom has been calling me Peep my whole life. That's how I got the name.
Sometimes a nickname is used instead of the real name. But a nickname may offend either the one named or the parents who gave the name.
There is nothing in a name. My husband, Santhosh Menon, called me Navya at first, which I did not like as it was my screen name. He knew me as Navya and found calling me Dhanya strange, so he came up with a pet name.
A nickname is not supposed to be your only name. I miss Jennifer a bit.
I have a rescue dog named Walter, and Walter and I are such fans of the 'Jersey Shore' that we changed his name to DJ Wally D.
My name is Jimmy, but my friends just call me the hideous penguin boy.
I have a Pomeranian dog named Nutmeg - a combination of the soccer move and the colour. It's perfect.
My wife calls me grumpy cat. I'm normally a very pleasant person to be around.
My sister called me "Buzzard" when I was a baby - she couldn't say "Brother" so I've been Buzz my whole life.
Eddie Jackson - that's my dog.
My parents never gave me a nickname. But for my friends, I am everything from 'Nushki' to 'Nusheshwar.'
I am still married, yes - no children. I have Benzo, though; he's my dog, a Lhasa apso.
What was the name of that dog on 'Rin Tin Tin'?
My nickname is Deb for people who really know me. But the only real nickname I've ever had was, my dad used to call me 'Ace.'
I do have the most adorable little Chihuahua mix. I adopted him about 3 1/2 years ago from Much Love pet adoption, and he has been the love of my life ever since. His name is Beau, or as my sister and I like to call him ' mushy mush' because he truly is just a pile of loving mush that just melts in your arms.
My father used to call me 'bird bones' and, well, the name fits.
Hang on, did you just call me Angel?" I asked. "If I did?" "I don't like it." He grinned. "It stays, Angel.
My mom will sometimes call me Winnie. It's so annoying. I'm like, 'Who are you talking to?'
I had a dog for 20 years and her name was 'Penny,' so I have a penny necklace.
My black cat was named Blackie.
