aside from this particular instance of name/pet name calling, i was
curious if i was alone in, directly or indirectly, biblically naming
someone/something (or, maybe not strictly biblically, perhaps just
obscure references of some kind...) curious what other people can/have
come up with...

My cat's name is Thalia. I chose it because she entertained me on first
sight. When I walked into the humane society, into the room with all the
cages, the first thing that hit me was the extreme level of noise that just
sounded sorrowful, and fearful, and unhappy in general. And there she was,
sitting about 6" back from her cage wall, in that regal posture cats get,
sitting on rear haunches with front legs fully extended vertically. As I
approached the cage, she stood up, stretched langorously, and sauntered over
to the door. Then she said one thing, "prrrrrrrow?" I was hooked! No
whining, no crying, with all that noise around her, she seemed unfazed. I
have not been disappointed; she's a wonderful emotional anchor and buffer.
