"Cats must have three names-an everyday name, such……" — Thomas Stearns Eliot

"Cats must have three names-an everyday name, such as Peter; a more particular, dignified name, such as Quaxo, Bombalurina, or Jellylorum; and, thirdly, the name the cat thinks up for himself, his deep and inscrutable singular Name."

Thomas Stearns Eliot
