53 Pet Names That Had Everyone Saying, "Why Didn't I Think Of That?"

I had a black snake that lived in my attic when I was renting( the house wasn’t great, and he was great pest control so I just left him up there to come and go as he pleased) that I named David Hisselhoff. Everybody used to freak out when I’d tell him that he was up there, but I didn’t mind and I would always tell them not to hassle the Hoff.
