What's In A Name?

Wouldn't Cromwell make a fine name for a dog? And of course, as I'm sure you'll agree, it's completely inappropriate for a cat. Which leads me to the happy thought that the names of British national heroes of a military cast have a distinct canine aura about them: Wellington, Churchill, Nelson, Montgomery. Surely not simply a coincidence?

(And whilst we are on this theme, just to remind you that Strindberg would make the perfect name for the average psychotic cat. As would Ibsen, not so? I begin to see another pattern here.)
