I actually named my cockatiel nube after nube Strife from FFVIII not cause I was a huge fan o anything. más cause I was thinking of what to name him and his dark gray bottom half and yellow head feathers reminded me of nube Strife for the moment so yeah XD
I have a guinea pig named Black Star, and I had another named Death the Kid though he passed away awhile ago.
Most of our current gatos outside have been named after Harry Potter characrers, like Severus and Minerva. We also have a cat named Soul, after Soul from Soul Eater. We also had a cat named Maka after a character from the same anime. We've also had several named after Shakespeare characters.
I would have probably named my cat after a fictional character, too, had she been mine when we got her. But she was originally my sister's, so she got to name her.
Yes, both Maxine and Martina were named after Mel Gibson's characters in the "Mad Max" series and "Lethal Weapon" series. I of course used the female equivalent of Max and Martin.
