Tuesdays with Tigris - What's In A Name?

Reader,

I am not sure why they Lady gives us names, because she so rarely uses them. 

Take me for example. When I arrived one year ago I was Lilo and Lady and Man changed it to Tigris. Currently, I am most often called Gris or Grissie, which makes sense as nicknames, but it doesn't stop there. I am also Grismas, BG (big girl), GrisGris, and Miss Gris. When Lady is being formal I am Tigris Blue Buttar. Blue, for my grey colour that looks blue and Buttar after a Canadian Bull Rider and because I am round.

Styx, who was Stitch, is Styx, Styxy, and Styximus Maximus (which Lady makes Max). He has the least names.

The cat whom I don't like is Jack-O-Lanie, Lanie, Little One, Lambie, or Scoot-scoot. When Lady is being really silly she called her Little Lanie Lambie Leme (Leme is also a bull rider, Lady has a theme). 

Lanie

It has only been a year, I am sure she will come up with new names (which may be better than the little songs she makes up about us and sings).
