My cats are named after a tattoo, an encoding system and a movie character.

Heh, good guesses.

Maze (because I have a maze, actually a labyrinth, tattooed on my back and she's stripey).

Hex (short for hexadecimal, but the pagans I used to date preferred to think otherwise).

Ripley (you can probably extrapolate for this one).

edit: line breaks.

Fair guess again.

In this case, she's named after the Alien movies.
