I think "Colin" is the default comedy name for animals

The monkey is called Nigel when I tell that joke.

Possibly Cheetah.

It's also the default name
in the (Tommy Cooper?) joke about one in five of the world's population being Chinese.

"There's five of us in my family, so one of us must be Chinese. There's my mum and dad, me, my brother Colin and my other brother Yim Hang. I think it's Colin."
