I do love my boyfriend very much but when it came to calling my cat Bing Noel Crosby Karnopp Bingford Noel Crosby Karnopp, I just about wanted to strangle him and kill him, lol. Honestly, my boyfriend can be very silly ... so can I. My cat's name is "Bing" - named after Bing Crosby the actor/singer of "White Christmas" and I like Bing Crosby and that's why my loving cat's name was kept as Bing Crosby when he was adopted from our local animal shelter.
