"Otto Messmer gave two different versions of how Felix got his name, the one on his official site "Rejoining Sullivan with a great idea for a new character named Felix the Cat,[3] and the second that "Mr. (John) King of Paramount Magazine suggested the name "Felix", after the Latin words felis (cat) and felix(lucky), which was used for the third film, The Adventures of Felix (released on 14 December 1919). Pat Sullivan said he named Felix after Australia Felix from Australian history and literature." ~ Wikipedia
