Name game

I named mine Cassie, she seems to have that classic Irish girl personality.

Checkers would actually be a very appropriate name. It's the name for the British Prime Minister's country home.

My friends hamsters name is cat because of me and my other friends convincing

Going along the same lines, "Truck" would be an appropriately ironic name!

What about Silvester? I like that name for some reason

And you BETTER not name it Moe (yes, after the robot from WALL.E), i call dibs on that when i get my mini.

Or you could name it something to do with the game checkers or chess -- Like Gambit or Pawn, Knight, King, Rook, etc. (Yeah, so my chess vocab isn't up to snuff today...)

Mine called Megumi, like this name for long time. Sounds strange putting a Japanese name on a Mini, but just like it.

I would name a checkmate either Bobby (Fisher) or Boris (Spatsky).
