It doesn't apply in my case, but I like the idea of a goddess called Bubbles and a Taco Bell item called Squanch.

I've had cats named Baldr, Hermóðr, Grendel, and Wotan. I've currently got a Valkyrie, Brynhildr, Freyja, and Freya (we got Freya when she was a year old because her owner couldn't keep her, and we already had Frejya, so...). But our current boy cats are Svartur ('cuz he's black), Robert, and Charlie.
