People named after computers

In Sweden, there's one woman with the first name "Amiga" (which really could have something to do with the Spanish translation of the word).
But get this: There's also one woman with the name "Atari"!
No Swedish men are currently named after these two computers.
Edit: Although, there is one man named "koder". I wonder what he works with... We also have two men called "Linux", but no women.
For all you swedes:

Cats?

My wife and I adopted two cats about two years ago and named them after a comic strip we like. The comic strip's name is "PC and Pixel", but rather than using "PC" as a name we used the Irish version "riamhaire", which we changed to "Reevara" to avoid confusing our vet. They fit in pretty well with our other seven cats
