An email conversation in which [livejournal.com profile] pvt_tiger and I debate the relative merits of the names of my future cats.

Me: *talking about two kittens I found on a rescue site* They're little enough so that renaming them wouldn't wig you out too much, right?
PT: I suppose. But I like them as Walter and Oliver. They're cute-nerdy-boy names!
Me: I just don't like the name Oliver. But also, I was thinking of taking one of the little grey girl kittens from the other batch. They all have such big blue eyes.
PT: Oliver is nowhere near as offensive a name as Kevin. God, I hate that name.
Me: Hee. Also, I would never name anything that. Except maybe a slug. 'Cause having a pet slug named Kevin would just be awesome.
PT: Okay, that may be the only instance where that name is permissible. Heh. A banana slug named Kevin....
Me: *griiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiins* Oh yeah. Oh. Yeah.
PT: I was also going to suggest a turtle named Kevin, but he would just be bitchy.
Me: Yeah, he'd be a biter. And you'd have to keep him in his own tank because he'd be mean to the other animals. Even if they were just fish. He'd eat 'em.
PT: Exactly. He'd also be the sort to disappear to crap unseen in the back of the cupboard under the sink if you ever let him out. And you'd find it like a month later after enduring an wretched, unknown stench all the while.
Me: But just getting him out of there in the first place would be an ordeal to begin with. He'd move really fast for a turtle and instead of pulling back into his shell he'd snap at you and then you'd need a band aide, which of course, you'd be out of. This would mean a trip to the store allowing him valuable, "crap behind the old container of Comet," time.
PT: Kevin's such a dirty bastard.

I know! So. Cute. The rescue kittens are the best. I figure that whenever I finally get one it'll be wicked cute.

The one I think I want the most though is actually an older kitten. His name is Mason (http://catadoptionservice.org/cats/ns1108/) but I think he'd make a very good Kou-cat. Hee!

Oliver is a fine name as long as you can disassociate it completely with that horrible musical... I'm a big fan of Tobey, but then again, if left to my own devices I'd name all sorts of things after West Wing characters and then be really traumatized if they died.

Dude, named a fish after Elton once. Thing only lasted two weeks. We put him in an animal cracker box and put him down the trash shute. All very sad. Heh.

Also, the name Kevin always makes me think of Legolas' brother. *snerks* Dude, best name ever.
