A while ago I found a cat outside a school at midnight I felt sorry for her so I took her home. My father-in-law named her Luli, but when we took her to the vet it wasn't a female but a neutered male.

Since we didn't have a male name, we named him Lalo (the nickname for those named Eduardo). One thing led to another and they ended up calling him Eduardo Andrés.

I have a computer science classmate named Eduardo, so I told him the story of how we ended up with that name, and I mentioned that on his pet ID card his official name is Eduardo Andrés, then everyone looked at me strangely because my classmate's name is Eduardo Andrés.

So now my new cat has the exact same name as my classmate, and I'm afraid people would think weird things about me.

TLDR:

My family named my cat exactly like a classmate and now I feel weird.
