Craziest Pet Names

Recently I came across a rather interesting list.  Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI) published its 2014 list of the most creative and unusual pet names in their database.  Here is what they listed:
 
Dogs
1.  Peanut Wigglebutt
2.  Sir Hog Knucklehead
3.  Sasha Biggiepotamus Fierce
4.  Otto Blitzschnell von Longdog
5.  Zippity Do Dawg
6.  Airbubble McMuffin
7.  Hamburger Patty
8.  Angus T. Brackencrack
9.  Mister Buddy Pickles
10.  Waffle Dots
 
Cats
1.  Snuggles Butt Le Lee
2.  Count Flufferton
3.  Katy Purry
4.  Walter Croncat
5.  Joey Banana Pants
6.  Felix Thunder Paws
7.  Nuttykitty
8.  Senor Meow
9.  Sassy Brat cat
10.  Purrscilla
 
Having been in veterinary medicine for 30 years, I've seen some rather unique names.  And I'm a bit tired of many of the same names (please don't name your pet Bella, Buddy, or Bailey....you really have no idea how many other pets have the same name!).  But there is "unique" and there is "were you high or drunk when you named your pet?"  Many of the above names fall in that latter category.  However, I'm sure that there are some very interesting stories behind those names.
 
Anyone want to comment and share the wackiest pet names they've personally come across?
