One of my favorite album titles is "What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits" by The Doobie Brothers. In light of my cat's habit of biting my feet, I'd want one of our album titles to be "What Were Once Toesies Are Now Cat Toys."
In any other context, "Toesies" would qualify for me as a linguistic irritant. Out of respect for a good album title, however, I want the number of syllables to match.
