Names!

[x_catseye]

When Catseye first came to the mansion Catseye did not like human names because human names confused Catseye because they did not mean anything so Catseye named people what they look like or what they do but now Catseye understands that naming people after what they look like or do is like telling them that they are a thing and that it is mean and Catseye does not want to be mean to people at the BigHouse or Catseye's other friends in the BusyTown so Catseye is going to ask what people want Catseye to call them if they like to be called by their real names to be nice or if they like their special name Catseye gave them.

Also Catseye learned that peoples names are veryveryspecial to people sometimes because of the people who named them what they are named but Catseye does not know why people have their names and Catseye wants to understand if people want to tell Catseye why they have their special names Catseye would like to read, nyah!

Which name does MouthyBiteyBoy like bestest?

I have long-since grown resigned to Marius. Never shortened to Mary, please, as it rather throws off the balanced ratio of male-to-female naming. The only other acceptable abbreviation is Sami, as set forth by my parents. (Due to various factors, the name 'Marius' has become less associated with my grandfather and more with unpleasant connotations.)

Catseye likes Marius cuz it sounds like happy!

And indeed I am.

Wanna hear a funny story about Marius and names? I dunno if I should tell it, or if I should see if Marius will tell it himself, since he's the one who got stuck with Chupathingy.

What is a Chupathingy?

It's what Mr. Marko used to call Marius when Marius was a X-Men trainee. His code name was Chupacabra, which is like, totally impossible to spell or say without the internet.

What is a Chupacabra? It is not in Catseye's dictionary.

Catseye misses BigMan.

And Catseye misses Mister Beaubier- where is Mister Beaubier? He was the person who wanted Catseye to use human names and now he's not answering Catseye and he's not in his room and Catseye wants to tell him about the mousie she found!

Time to introduce you to wikipedia. It's awesome. It's a big encyclopedia of like, almost everything, and it covers stuff that's not in the dictionary! But you can use it for school stuff because it's not always accurate.

I kinda miss Mr. Marko too. I hope he's okay whereever he had to go to.

I'm not sure where he got to.

Catseye does not understand. If Chupacabra means goat sucker, isn't that name mean to Marius? How come it is allowed?

Catseye thinks she should ask about Mister Beaubier because Catseye wants to know when he's coming back.

It's kinda mean, but kinda teasing. The trainee names are supposed to be sort of teasing. If Marius had really been insulted, he could've said something and they'd probably have changed it.
