If you're searching for a fuzzy new addition to your family, the best place to start your search is at your local pet shelter. Sure, most of the animals there are certified mutts, not designer breeds. But they're awfully cute, and many of them are desperate to find their forever home (or fur-ever home, you might say). 

Some of these cats and dogs come from the street. They're part of feral litters of kittens or puppies, and they and their siblings need to be named and homed ASAP. On one site, PetFinder, people love to give the wackiest names to these critters, and if they're goofy enough, that pet will gain a lot of attention from the moniker. These names range from the latest trends to random products to just silly nouns or verbs. Check them all out below — they're bound to put a smile on your face. 

Up next, read about the ways that these customers are truly weirding out the retail workers, like one person who "called the store… while they were in it."
