Simple: Allow animals to get nicknames just like dwarves can.

Why: It would make animal management much easier. In Animal screen and in Assign to Cage/Rope menu, specific animals would be much easier to identify.

Typical situations: Player decides to butchering excess animals, but wants to keep breeding pair/breeding pair with backup.

Since breeding pair is typically roped somewhere to save on pathing, player does not want to keep just random male/female combo, but specific one that is already chained.

Also, when player sees 'stud' Horse die in game log, he is going to know that it is time to designate new 'stud' and chain him.

Other possibilities are nicknaming cats/dogs after owners: 'kivish's' dog so that player can tag them to be able to react to death apropriatelly (i.e. assign new dog, prepare for tantrum...)

Hmm, I'd expect at least "No way!" message
