From dogs and cats to hedgehogs, guinea pigs, and bunnies, the pets in this story come with official names and the nicknames their humans actually use. Some are adorable, some are bizarre, and some sound like they belong in a crime drama instead of a living room.

I wonder if the science behind pet nicknames comes down to:
