Catler is named after Jon Catler. I have no idea about the others. FloraC (talk) 16:52, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
I would also be strongly in favour of renaming catcall. It’s the only temperament that I’d actively avoid making music with or researching, simply because I’m too ashamed to say the name out loud.
Perhaps we could rename it “catnip” instead?
