I try to call my dog "Barkspawn", and he has started to respond to it.
Wow, that is in fact what I called my dog in dragon age on my first playthrough.

As for actual animals, there has been a lizard named Mr. Wizard, a hamster who was known as the 'Dark Lord' and one named blinky.

Less traditionally nerdy(musically nerdy) my girlfriend brought home a cat and I told her if we were going to keep it, then it wasn't going to have a cutsey name. I called him 'Allowishus Devandander Ambercrombie'. She immediately shortened it to 'Ally'. Bah.

I've taken to naming the dogs in Dragon Age 2 and Orgins 'Higgs'. That's like meta geeky right? Naming fictional pets after fictional characters?

I live out in the country and we've always had what could only be discribed as a pride of cats. And there have been lots and lots of cats over the 12 years out here. I'd get to name alot of them, sometimes after anime and game characters or other such things. Here's a list of some of the names I've come up with in no particular order:

-Four siblings: Squirlie, High Wire, Inu Yasha, the last one I can't remember.
-Ina, from one of the Mobile Suit Gundam series.
-Ginenji aka Nenji, from InuYasha. A real lovey-dovey cat that would always get picked on by stray tomcats and I'd have to save him.
-Kyo, from Fruits Basket.
-Stupid, orange female, she wouldn't stop meowing so I started calling her that.
-Three siblings: Cyote, Fat Cat, Simba.
-Big Guy, a big orange tomcat.
-Two sisters: Light Face, Dark Face. Light Face is a big, multi-colored fluffy female cat. The Big Mama type that don't take no crap.
-The Prince aka Prince Purry, a fluffy white pursian.
-Three siblings: Squeaky, Nibbles, Skittles. Squeaky has a squeaky meow, Nibbles like to nibble my on my toes, and I couldn't think of a name so I took the Kinectimals tiger's name of Skittles.

I have a black Burmese cat with big yellow eyes I named Ryoga, who is is my most fave anime/manga character of all time and who happens to have black hair and usually wears yellow & black outfits.


Additionally, Ryo is one half of a sibling pair, affectionately referred to as The Terror Twins.

If I ever get a dog I would totally call it Dogmeat, otherwise I'd probably just get a cat and call it Garrus or something.
yeah Im not sure I could call my dog "dogmeat" I definetly wouldnt call him/her rex though

Ive always wanted to call future my dog Harley..as in Harley quinn

I have a cat named Cat Stevens (for the obvious pun but he actually has gone through stages of life similar to Cat Stevens, right now he's extremely mellow much like Stevens post Muslim conversion days) and I have a dog named Vivi from Final Fantasy IX

My hamster was called Lister (Character from Red Dwarf)
You should get a chicken and name that Lister too :p

OT: I really want a Corgi named Ein and/or a cat named Apples

My one cat Leeloo is simultaneously named after Milla Jovovich's character from The Fifth Element and a terrible, terrible pun: Milla's character in the film is "the perfect woman"; my kitty Leeloo is "the purrfect cat".

The best part is that it was my parents idea to name her that - huzzah for geek families!

I named my mostly black tortoise shell cat, Onyxia. Oni for short... The short is also very applicable.

i used to have this stray that we rescued but had to put her down cause she was part coyote, and when i found that out i decided to name her Lobo after a wolf in a short story that i can't remember the title of.
