Numistmatic names for your pets that you had/have?

We know that Charmy has named her cat "Penny".
My son, 7 years ago, named our rescue cat "Silver" (he's a blue Russian). My uncle had a dog named "Ike" (but I don't think it was for the dollar version...though that uncle did collect coins until his eyesight went way too bad to continue, so who knows...I didn't ask)
Anyone else taken to name their pets anything related to numismatics? A "Morgan" or "Longacre" or even a "come here 'Doubledime"? 
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

the late dog food king of la-named his daughter morgan and his cat cc i believe.
Our toy poodle's name is Renoir. Pierre-Auguste Renoir was featured on an Andorran coin a while back. Does that count?
RMR: 'Wer, wenn ich schriee, hörte mich denn aus der Engel Ordnungen?'
CJ: 'No one!' [Ain't no angels in the coin biz]
I employ a receptionist named Stella.
Moose !
My kids names are Carson and Charlotte but my wife put her foot down when we got the puppy last year. Lol
DOG for dirty old gold?
I have a dime in my house but it ain't my dog.
While in the White House, the Fords had a golden retriever named Liberty. Does that count?
Not so much, named Martini & Jameson.
It would never occur to me to give a dog or cat a numismatic oriented name...I have always named pets based on their character...Cheers, RickO
I do too, Rick, but for some reason, when he was 7, my son wanted to call our shelter cat that we had just picked up, "Silver Lightning" and we have just shortened it to "Silver" over the time (almost immediately). Kind of like "Richard" becomes "Rick" or "Ronald" becomes "Ron", etc.
It just dawned on my how funny it was calling him "Silver" when we are around numismatic items and bullion so often. And, some friends have said we should get an orange tabby and call it "Gold" to go with "Silver".
It just got me to wondering.....

My Boston Terrier Milo (best dog ever) who passed away this past Halloween at 15 often earned his nickname Slug cus he wouldn't move from where I would want to sit or lay down if he just didn't feel like it. Which was mostly, unless snacks were involved.
So, Slug. Numismatic.
Forget pets, I've named my kids Fair, Poor, Almost Good, and Filler. ;-)
But their middle names are Bela, August, Frasier, and Victor respectively.
