The Cat Distribution System truly knows its audience. When it delivered a tiny furball to a household full of Star Wars fans, the Force was strong - and so was the urge to pick the perfect name. Around our office, we've also got cat pawrents who proudly named their cats after beloved nerdy icons:

  1. "Mine's named Gandalf, because he's old, wise, has a fabulous beard, and yells dramatically at closed doors. Every time he blocks the hallway, I half expect him to shout 'You shall not pass!' at the dog."
  2. "My tabby girl is called Ezio, from Assassin's Creed. She's an absolute stealth queen - jumps from furniture like a trained assassin and gives off major rooftop parkour energy. The only thing she's ever 'assassinated' is my socks."
  3. "We have a Tortie named Ripley, after Ripley from Alien, obviously. Fierce, fearless feline, and constantly picking fights with things bigger than her. The vet says she's small for her age - I say she's just compact chaos."
  4. "My cat? Garrus Vakarian, the best companion from Mass Effect. Because he's loyal, broody, and has a crooked little nose. Also, I like to pretend we calibrate things together when I'm working from home. Best space boyfriend. I mean - cat. Best space cat."
