May be a dumb question, but some of the names of the cats, how do the cats even know what a lion is (for Lionblaze)? I'm sure there are more like that.

Don't they know it from LionClan? Sure, it may be like naming a child after a mythical creature but it's still something.

Lion-, Leopard-, Tiger- are all like this, though it stems from their mythology of LionClan, LeopardClan, and TigerClan. We still don't know where those stories come from, but possibly some cats found a zoo one time and were fascinated? haha
almost related but not quite, imma talk about some name implications because of location (I'm Canadian, for context) Jayfeather's name is funny to me since the series is unofficially British, that means they've never seen a blue jay, like most designs of him reference. Instead, the jay they'd be familiar with would be a eurasian jay, which does have a little blue on its wing but is mostly light brownish and white. It also explains (to me, anyway) why Sparrow Fur is named that when she is a calico. It's because while sparrows in the Americas are consistently light browns with some whites or yellows occasionally, house sparrows and eurasian tree sparrows are brown, black, and white. Then again the series is "unofficially" British, so I think it's fine if they're vague on what animals the cats know and see. I personally find it funny they have a separate name for twolegs/housefolk/upwalkers when every other animal has its normal name lol

I believe it a shortened form of the name, Mildred. Looking it up, it’s apparently a shortened form of many different names. (Camellia, Millicent, Emilia, etc.)
