Talking Animals with human names.

Whats peoples opinion on this?

Do you have animals with human names like Dave or Gertrude (not so good examples)?

Or non human style names like Carrot-face or Rehfoosila (also bad examples)?

short of making up something random its not that easy to name an animal with a non human name.

Besides, Dave is a great name for a snake. So is Barry.

My toroise is called Toby, pretty normal.

and my leo is called muffin because he reminds me of a chocolate and banna muffin I once had.

so I cant vote I guess.
