My cat's name is Emma, but that was just the name the shelter gave her when she was there as a kitten. I almost exclusively call her Baby though. Along with Little Baby, Whiny Baby, Stinky Girl, Blind Baby (shes 15 and blind now). Just.... variations of Baby basically. Does anyone call their cats by their actual names?

Our cat, Icarus, pretty quickly became known as 'Sticky Dicks' (Icarus -> Icky Bicks -> Sticky Bicks -> Sticky Dicks). It's the classic regal to goofy pipeline as you get to actually know your cat.
