Oddest pet name?!

Currently looking after a Moose! My French husband calls her Mousse au chocolat or Moussaka :rofl:

The people of Bali use the birth order name to refer to one another, actually. Maybe an option?

The first born are named Wayan, Putu, Gede or for a girl, Ni Luh. Wayan is a Balinese name meaning “eldest”.

Second born children are named Made, Kadek, or Nengah. Made and Nengah mean madya or “middle”. Kadek means “little brother” or “little sister”.

The third born is given the name Nyoman or Komang. These names may be shortened to “Man” and “Mang”.

Fourth born children are named Ketut. Ketut is often shortened to “Tut”.

If there is a fifth child in the family, he is often called Wayan Balik (meaning “Wayan again”).

Seems like one only needs to know five names and after that the order might save you. :joy:
