i knew this person who had a cat. a black cat. and it had some name like Ghost. and when Ghost died, they would get another black cat and name it Ghost.
i always thought that was kinda shitty.
i rarely ever use my cats name, but every cat ive ever had is distinct in my memory by their behavior and their name, and i wouldn't want to conflate them.
I agree, at the very least make it “Ghost II” or “Ghost Jr.” But even then it’d have to be some “holy shit is this my old can reincarnated??” situation otherwise it feels disrespectful.
It took me almost a full month to come up with a name for Darby cause I had to get it just right
