Default What do you call your hound?

Just wondering how many names everyone has for their dogs? My hounds name is Flash, but on any given day he is called all or a combination of:

Flash, Flashers, Flasherbasher, Rashers, Fat Basset, Lazyboy, Chewbacca, Chewy, Mama's Boy, Sweetie Pie, and probably a few others.

Do you think I'm confusing him?

Doppler gets called Doppleganger, Bud bud, and Jabud bud. Virga mainly gets called Virgal birgal, Little miss, Sweet sweet (my husband calls her this), and Little one. Silly puppies! Oh. And Virga will come when we call for Doppler and vice versa. But I don't think it confuses them. They get used to it.

Molly is called Mollykins, Molly McMuffin, and most often called Mollycopter (I think it's from the sound her ears make when she shakes).

We have a cat named Sydney who we call Beans more than anything else. She actually answers to it now.

Ella is usually El, Smella, or Smells and Ringo is usually Dingo, Dingo Butt or Big Boy. Ella answers to pretty much anything that sounds like her name and Ringo answers to anything I say
