Famous Baldies -
With the names below consider selecting the person's bald character when applicable.
Also consider using the famous person's last name to address the pet rather than first names.
Most people would use only the first name even if they gave the pet the full name. Try using the last names when it sounds cool enough. Be different.
I have highlighted all names in this section for convenienc in spotting even the character names.
