I had one kitten that was always by me when I was cooking and while serving up some pasta a piece of spagetti fell on her, she went crazy, so her name became Noodles.

Rinky and Dinky got their name when my neighbor found them in her wood pile in their back yard and she asked if I'd take them and I said sure it's no rinky dink affair taking on 2 more kitties, but I'd take them.
