What is the baby's name?

I slept in. Technically, I got up a few hours ago to use the restroom and then went back to sleep, but still.. I slept in.
I was dreaming that I had a baby. The dream was sort of odd because in part of it I actually did physically give birth to the baby, and in other parts the baby was a cat. The human baby was a male, but the cat might have been female.
Anyway, I don't remember what I named the baby, and in the dream I was trying to remember. I was looking for the information I was given when going home after having the baby. I wasn't looking for a birth certificate, for some reason. I could remember that the name started with an AT, and that it was the back end of a well known name. I remember the name sounded really good on it's own. For instance, Alexander can be split into Alex or Xander. That wasn't the name though.
The cat, when it was a cat, was black and white. Not a tuxedo, though the belly and chest was mostly white. It was a plump little thing, too.
I remember looking at a questionaire that I filled out, and I think this was for adopting a cat. The questionnaire asked if I wanted a boy or girl, and I said boy and answered the following questions using that pronoun.
Whoever checked the paperwork had crossed out the "he" in each of my answers and wrote SHE just like that (underlined).
As a human, the baby would not take my milk.
As a cat, the baby would not eat the food I offered.
It was a weird, weird dream

I seem to be dreaming a lot more lately. For a few weeks, I would dream but not really remember them.

@LadyDuck It's always the most fresh when we first wake up. I am already forgetting mine as well.

I have a black and white cat in real life. It sounds like a very weird dream.

@Hannihar if the image loads, that's what they typically look like. Some can have less black fur, or even more.

What do they look like? We have black and white cats out there too and not sure if they are tuxedo cats.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I bet you was, I bet you was glad when you woke up and realized it was only a dream.

@gr8nana6 I don't know that I'll ever have children, but then, I"m not sure if I ever want them either. The cat though, that would have been nice to wake up to.

I've never dreamed about having children; and I never had any in real life.

I have no children either, and I am not sure that I ever will. It doesn't bother me like it used to. Now I'd be content with a house full of pets.

@LindaOHio My mom used to dream of that. She wanted to own a farm with lots and lots of dogs. I think she kind of wanted an animal sanctuary for them.

Why do you want to remain away from my weird dream?
