Well Smudge already had his name when I got him and it seemed to really suit him, because he's a Smudge of this and a Smudge of that.

Winter also had her name, when I got her. She was named because she was born in the winter...actually she was born in fall but hey the people who had her before I got her weren't that smart. But the name really suits her, because at times she can be a bit flaky.

and Tama got his name partially from an anime that I like to watch called Fushigi Yugi, he's sort of name after my fave character named Tamahome, but I decided to change it a bit and called him Tamashii which means soul or spirit in Japanese.
