We do the same thing with our dogs, or other weird, abbreviated nicknames. My dog Orson has one of the longest full names of any dog I've ever encountered:
Gullah Gullah Orson Kyle Carl Buchanan Swirlie Fonzarelli Dorito Stapleton.
Origin: Gullah Gullah = because of the show Gullah Gullah island, and because the singing of the theme song makes him hyper.
Orson = Character from Desperate Housewives
Kyle = The character was played by Kyle MacLachlan
Carl = From Llamas with hats; Orson liked eating hands when he was a puppy
Buchanan = The president. Only, we pronounce it Buck-uh-nan, to make fun of my sister's Presidential speech at school in which she did this.
Swirlie = He has swirlie tufts of hair on the backs of his knees.
Fonzarelli = My mom has a thing for Fonzie.
Dorito = His feet always smell like Doritos. Always.
He answers to this, Orson, any of his various middle names, Orsie, Ors-O, Ors, O-son, O, Tic-Tac-O, Big O, etc.
