My female cat: First, middle, honorific, family names, two titles of nobility.
"Aquila Falconis Irownpaw PortmanteauOfOwnerSurnames, First of her name, Leidan of (place we used to live when she was adopted), Queen of the Andals and First Men."
Funny. Mine was from Longclaw, one of the ASOIAF swords, that became Ironclaw, which sounded not quite right. Since her pads and kitten nails were dark, it sort of morphed in to Ironpaw.
Huh...so maybe she's not first of her name after all.
She's all white and we found her at 2 weeks old by a tree.
Our male cat is Bruce. My sister volunteers at a cat rescue and they had a litter of kittens come through that were all black. I didn't name him. I wasn't planning on adopting but how could I possibly turn up having a yin and yang set of cats with rhyming names lmao. He's super chill and loves his belly rubbed.
Miss Misa Misa is old, yes, but calling here ancient seems uncalled for. But I guess the goddess part is not too far from reality. All baby beds are belong to her!
Maze (because she has stripes and I have a maze tattooed on my back and I figured naming her thus would increase my resemblance to a Batman villain)
Hex (got her at the same time as Maze but she doesn't really have distinct physical features that would inspire a particular name, so I named her Hex, short for Hexadecimal)
Ripley (I don't actually remember why we named her that, but it was inspired by Alien)
I'll have to add photos later, but we have Wolfgang and Riley, named after two characters in Sense8, and Phil, named by his foster after the rugrat. They all live up to their names. Riley is reclusive and chill tho not an Icelandic DJ. Wolfgang is loud and a bit mouthy, but no rocket launcher. Phil, he's got the zoomies way more than his namesake.

His name is Hades
Fast charging can damage your cat.
My experience is that if my cat charges too fast, she will fix the problem by immediately discharging all over the carpet.

Neighbor's male cat: "Other Cat"
I used to have a cat with the middle name Ironpaw, never thought I'd see that again.
What! Where'd you get the name from? I was reading ASOIAF at the time, so that's how ours got the fancy name.
Commander Ironfist from the Lightbringer Series by Brent Weeks.

The Fabulous Staredycat Sisters are named after authors. Specifically the Brontë sisters Charlotte and Emily 😁
Edit: bizarre Heliboard autocorrect of "Staredycat" to "job" fixed

You tell us about this little angel and post no photos?
Her name is actually Salem. :)
I miss my Enchirito.

She's gorgeous 😍
My sister's cat was named by a 5-year-old, so for no apparent reason that I can make out, his name is Zanzibar.
That's a pretty good name though.
Zanzibar... forgive me
I'm not gonna cook it but I'll order it from Zanzibar.

Meet my cats: Enchirito, Big Burrito, and Mexican Pizza.
My girl cat is named Willow.
My son's boy cat is named Philly Cheese Steak, so not that far off from the TB menu. ✅
I named my cats Xena (Warrior Princess Kitty), and Frodo
Xena was a fighter, she was the boss, lived up to her name.
Frodo is a fluffy little doof, who just wants to sleep and eat. Like a hobbit.
Nubby? Where are you?
My cats are
My boy cats were named Aristotle and Galileo, and my dog was Kepler. So, I call bs.

My boy cat is also named after an ancient god
