When it comes to naming their kids, all bets are off with celebrities, (cough) KANYE! (cough), and with their pets, it’s no different. Check out some of the funny, unique, and sometimes just strange names these stars chose for their furry friends.

Sirius Black
Ariana Grande named her doggo after the Harry Potter character.

Bearenstain
Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz named his dog after the popular kid’s book, The Berenstain Bears, only slightly changing the spelling.

Kitty Purry
Probably the most fitting pet name of all time, Katy Perry’s cat even made a cameo in the music video for I Kissed A Girl.

Oprah Winfrey
The name was originally meant to be disrespectful, but after sitting down with the real Oprah, 50 Cent squashed the beef and admitted he was a fan.

Mr. Fluffy Pants
Kesha rescued this kitty in 2013 and asked her fans to help name him.

Pablow
Miley Cyrus wrote a heartfelt song about her beloved fish, called Pablow The Blowfish, after he passed away in 2015.

Thurman Merman
Named after the character from 2003’s Bad Santa, Rachel Bilson nailed it with this one.

Karen Carpenter
Christina Ricci named her dog after the American singer and drummer of The Carpenters. Before Karen, Ricci had a dog named Sheriff Steve Goldberg.

Brutus
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson tragically lost this little guy (on the left) after he ate some poisonous mushrooms. He turned the sad situation into a somewhat positive one, using it to remind people not to take life for granted.

The puppy on the right is named Hobbs, like his character in the Fast and Furious franchise.

Pepper
I wouldn’t call this name strange, on its own anyway, but Emmy Rossum has two other dogs named Cinnamon and Sugar too. So Pepper is the spicy one of the trio.

Kenobi
The force is strong with Anne Hathaway’s pup.

Honey Child and Foxy Cleopatra
Reality star turned actress Nicole Richie chose these two names for her dogs, who both have their own IMDb pages.

Ghengis Khan
An award-winning chow chow, Martha Stewart named her dog after the leader of the Mongol Empire. Sticking to the legendary conquerers theme, she also has a cat named Empress Tang.

Olivia Benson
Taylor Swift took inspiration from the female detective on Law & Order: SVU for her cat’s name.

Harrison Zulander
I have no idea why CeeLo Green chose this name, but I like it!

Eye In The Dark
For anyone else, this name (or phrase really) would sound ridiculous. For Norman Reedus, one of the stars of The Walking Dead, it just seems right.

Adamantium
The Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialek’s cat was born without a pectoral muscle and needed a metal prosthetic, so naming her after the metal inside Wolverine’s body only makes sense.

Squiddly and Diddly
Simon Cowell acts tough on TV, but really he’s got a soft spot for his two yorkies.
