Like the RCMP horse-naming contests! Okay, so it would have to start with S...

To be honest, I'm in this mentality that the Scratch cat's official name should be, well, 'Scratch' (you know, like Scratch the programming cat).

I think so too, and a lot of people call him that, right?

I believe that Scratch was built on Squeak programming, not 'Squeak' being the official name of the Scratch mascot. That, and Squeak already seems to have it's own mascot, a mouse which I suspect is named 'Squeak'. (LOL, 'Squeak Mouse' and 'Scratch Cat', they seem to go well together  tongue ).

Anyway, it seems here that everyone's agreed on having 'Scratch' (full name 'Scratch Cat') as the official name.

I want to name him "Scratchr", like all the impotent people are called on the forums.

Scratchr is a Scratch Team member, which I'm afraid to say Scratch the Cat is not.

Re: Does the Scratch cat have an official name?

So, Scratch Cat should be his name, or Scratch for short.  It would be weird if he had a different name.  Can you honestly look at the Scratch Cat and call him Bob or something like that?

I think Scratch sounds good—not only is it the name of the program, but Cats may also Scratch, get it?  tongue   smile
But yeah, I think he should be called, Scratch.  wink

Ace, please don't bump up old topics unless you have a good reason to (people have already agreed on Scratch Cat).  smile

I think Scratch is the first name and Cat is the last.  big_smile

Yeah, don't try talking down to me about that, I had a good reason. Someone made a another topic asking about the Scratch Cat's name, and cheddargirl put the link to this topic there.

Re: Does the Scratch cat have an official name?

I think of it this way:

Scratch [the] Cat

"Hello mr. Cat..."
"Cat... Scratch, Cat..."      tongue


Scratch Cat.

I don't really think putting a mouse and a cat together would work out.  tongue  lol George the Scratch Cat. XD That would be a weird name. OwO But I agree, I guess everyone wants it to be Scratch.  smile  Unless we called him George!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  lol  XD

And there's another basic question: what is Scratch Cat's gender? Or does Scratch Cat even have an official gender?

IMO he's a boy, but that's just my opinion. I mean although Scratch is a cat, which is generally feminine, here it's different...
