You are all so right!! Unless you are a devoted pet owner you don't understand all of the affectionate names you give your pets.
Patches a female calico soon to be 16 years old is called Miss Do!!! Why? She is always DOING something. For example, knocking my glasses off the nightstand at 4:30AM to get me up. Magic (deceased) was called very affectionately Mr. Boo. As in
my sweet baboo. And my current new orange tabby that adopted me,is called Rascal or
Rascalberry with great affection.
