The Cat with Too Many Names

Elwood, previously known as Lucas, previously known as Miracle, previously known as Trickster, has had a lot of names in the first few months of his life.  He started out with a temporary name of Trickster, because he would always be the first kitten to sneak out of the bedroom and climb a baby gate to get to the rest of the house. 

Then he and his three siblings got sick, and the other three didn't make it.  He needed a miracle to survive, so I named him Miracle.
I called him Mira for short, because I thought he was a girl.  Then I found out he was a boy.  He forgave me but I thought Mira was not a good name for a boy cat.  So then I went on vacation and my cat-sitter named him Lucas.  And I liked that name, so that was his official name until he was adopted.
Then someone adopted him and named him Elwood.  It goes well with his brother's name which is Jake.  Here is Jake and Elwood.

They appear to be getting along quite well.  Now I hope he never has another new name again.
