Chazz: Poncho, I won't let the cats hurt you! Poncho: How do I know you haven't already fallen victim to their brainwashing? Chazz: Ask me something only I would know the answer to. Poncho: Okay… what's our pet name for Carmen? Chazz: It's not "our" pet name, it's your pet name-- Poncho: Chazz, this is serious! There's no time to split hairs! Chazz: Sigh… "monkey butt." Poncho: Hee hee hee… okay, I'll come out, but tell M.B. to keep those cats back.
Tham Packs, in the first Sunday strip in the collection “All Dogs Naturally Know How To Swim” (which makes it very likely the first Sunday strip to have appeared), six (of the eight) cat food dishes are shown, each of which bears a name, and five of the six names are readable. They are: Alex, Stanley, Osiris, Satchmo, and Dizzy.
But I only know of one strip (in that same book) where any cat’s name is actually spoken. One cat, speaking to another cat, refers to a third cat as “Stanley.”
