Even though the name of my cat is officially Frutty, we usually refer to her 
and address her simply as 'maca.' (diminutive for she/cat in Serbian.) She 
doesn't seem to be bothered by being addressed by a universal rather than an 
individual name, as it were. I am hoping for a Gricean commentary on this 
weighty philosophical topic.

O.K.
