OK. I guess I will not call the California SPCA and mention your cruelty ... it's an existing problem. Why not take her (him?) to court and have the name changed legally? Better yet, get both registered as illegal aliens! Free health care and free bones!
I have a friend who named his pet "Dog". Of course, his pet is a cat, so it does not matter cuz his pet does not answer to anything except food (occasionally). But it sure screws up people when they hear people calling the cat and saying "Here Dog"!
But the absolute "name winner" is a girl I knew in work about 20 years ago. Her last name was Mower. Of course, her parents gave her the first name of ... Lawne.
