Ok, let's cheat a little, Berk.
The Minister's cat was called X after the bridge on a map that was in code.
The next bridge on the map was marked Y so the second cat was named after that and the last one was called Z after the final bridge on the map, which turned out to be upside down and of little use anyway.
There!
How about toys next? That should be easy.
The Minister's cat was called Atari because it liked to plug its tail into the television set.
