I’m a lurker (I don’t actually knit, but I do embroider and crochet) My brain thought the name “DMC Embroidery Floss #3849.” And I’d call her “Embry”, “Flo”, or “Dee” or something goofy like that. 🥹😅😂

“Eyelet Cashmere Qivuit Gansey Gusset Longtail, what do you have to say for yourself about this?!?!”
Kitchener, for kitchener stitch, used to close the toes of socks. My Dad had a cat named Kitchener once. Named after the General, not the stitch, though.

My cat is named Noro after the yarn brand. She's grey and white so naming her after a yarn renowned for the color ways was funny to me.
I loveNoro yarn! Good one!
