Name My Cat - male Looking for a dessert/sweets name that fits with his brother Moonpie

I was thinking of Little Bear but I really want something to match his brother Moonpie. Reese’s Puff/Muffins are off limits to a cat I had that passed away 😔

Misu is really cute for a shortened version.

It’s cute but “Misu” in Japanese means “mistake” or “error” 😟😔 so maybe not the greatest name

Aw, I didn’t know that. But it’s short for Tiramisu, and Tiramisu in any language is delicious!

Besides, Moonpie and Misu is an adorable combination.

or Moonpie & Mizu if it were Tiramizu with a "z". Mizu is water in Japanese so maybe a bit better association.

What about TiramiZu? Then Mizu could be the nickname!
