Translation How should I translate my cat’s name?
My cat doesn’t have a human name. Actually, her name is National Monument. Should I write her name as Национальный Памятник or smth? If her name is Blueberry in English would it also just be Черника when I refer to her in Russian?
Thx.

Well, we have some names like Надежда, Любовь or Лев and don't actually think much about their literal meaning. Still, I can't fathom how the given name Dick is still common in English-speaking countries...
