Felix gets Felixywoo or Felixstowe -the kids think I'm mad with that one, they've only just realsied it's a place
My little black boy cat is Pickles too! Normally nicknamed as Pickly head, Picks and For God's Sake Shift out of the way!
My other little boy is Monty - aka Monty head and Stop Scratching, lol
A friend of mine called her cat "Stoppit" - I think that's fab
She is Ambi, Ambi-Pure, Ambrose, Amber-Rose, Fruggly head, Chuggly head, fruggly-chuggly head, monster, mew-mew, ep-ep, chug-chug...
Basically anything stupid that you can think of (and most of them are my courtesy of my OH :eek:
Socks - Mo, Rolly Mo as he sleeps on his back and twists his head and paws in the air! My friend Dan thinks that is so weird and cool.

Poor little mite.
Snozzy get called: Snozzykins, Snozzums, Princess, Pretty Kitty, Madame, Baby Girl or Snozzy D.
Shadow will answer to Bugger (excuse my french) cos I was always calling him a "little bugger", he started to think that was his name (he was a naughty boy) He is also called 'Bad Shad' (cos it rhymes). Sadly these days he is too old to be naughty.
My youngest, Archie - 4 months, is called Archibald when he is naughty.
Woody is normally Good Wood as he is such a lovely natured cat.
We did have 5 cats for a lot of years (last one died a coupla yeras ago)
Bart - would sometimes get 'Bartie'
Gizmo - would get 'Giz', or 'Gizzy'
Figaro - almost always got 'Figs' - but sometimes 'Slinky', because he was.... very.
Joni - occasionally got 'Bitch' - because she was one
Frankenstein - spent most of his life being called 'Frankie' - But sometimes I'd call him 'Wonky' (because of a birth defect, his left front paw was a funny shape, also the left side of his mouth, and his left eye had flecks of green among the brown.
Currently have a dog - 'Stig' - which my wife often calls 'Stiggie'
Toby: Tobes, Tobstrel, Mr Tobies, Toby Stir, Mommy's Man, Mimpy
Pepper: Mrs Corns, Peppercorns, Madame Poivre, Cornies
Biscuit: Whiskles, WhiskyWibblestix, Bix, Whisk

I'm not well ..........
l have a short haired cat called "Bon" .. we call her Splom Splom, Skanky, Pom Pom. Bon La Pom, Bon La Bin
OMG lm so glad l read this thread, at least l know lm not the only one shouting strange names at the back door
Bookend loves it and rolls over for her tummy to be tickled
Gizmo , well it depends on her mood, sometimes she looks up at me as if to say " you idiot , did you know I was sleeping before you started talking to me in that stupid baby voice and woke me up, now pi** off and get me some snacks to say sorry "
EDIT:
I forgot Little Sh*t - when she digs her claws in for attention:eek:
Nicknames: Figgy, My Baby, Mr Fig, Robo-Fig, Figgly Mog
Nicknames when he's naughty: Cooking Fat, Little B*****d (said of course with a defeated smile because he's just too gorgeous to actually be mad at even when he knocks a glass off the table because it was there and he could).
My girl is called Tootsie which I don't like but she was 2 when she came to me and already called that.
She gets Toots, Tootles, Tootle Pie, Tootle Pip, Pipsqueak or Pipski.
Angel is Ange the Strange or StrangeAnge - she's still a bit aloof.
I sort of wish that when we adopted Angel we'd changed her name to Florence, then they'd have been Florence and Zebedee (Magic Roundabout) or Zeb and Flo.
Now she gets called Poobag or poobsly because she has this habit of making the whole flat smell when she uses the litter tray and she seems to go rather a lot! She also gets called Clemmie cat (which is slightly nicer than the others) she occasionally gets called Clem Clem as well.
That's nice.
He was also called Wearie, in later years, when he began to slow down as it rhymed with Sherie, and his last nickname was Woo, (Or Wooee) which came about when my nephew, then aged 5, went outside to whistle for him to come in and all that came out was 'woo' - it stuck and it became a nickname. We used to say a rhyme - Sherie-dearie-Werie-Woo - encompassing all his nicknames and he answered to every one of them. He was a lovely old boy and I miss him terribly. His memorial plaque and his ashes inscription all say his full name - Sherekhan - but to us he was always Sherie, or Woo.
I have Lily who soon became Lily Moo, followed shortly by Moosie, gorgeous girl, (when hubby comes in I say "Babe, your girl is in" , sweetheart, moose,
Blackie, became Blackster, Hunny Bunny, Gorgeous boy, Bunny, cherub, sweet pea, Hunny,
My late Percy who was black with white socks, my hubby named him "tosspotieus, whitefootieus!!! oh and baby.
I never shorten Bernard - he knows his name well.
Millie and Lucy don't really respond to their names very well (I sometimes try using their original rescue names but they've never responded to those either). Millie gets called Millie-Moo and Lucy is Lucy-Lu but I may as well call them Puss and Puss for all the notice they take.
