Naming a cat.

[mrsbenglish.livejournal.com]

Hi friends!

Not quite a baby (and hey I've come to you for help naming both of my human babies!)...but...my family just adopted a kitty from the humane society today, he was a stray and lived there for a couple months, they called him chip. We're trying to figure out a name that suits him better and I come to you for ideas!

I'll try to edit in a photo later this evening if we haven't figured out a name by then, but anyway..

He is 4ish years old. Pure white, short to medium length hair with bright orange eyes and a pink nose. He has the sweetest playful/ snuggly personality. He's kind of roly poly too at 11ish lbs.


Thanks!

Gideon, it means warrior and he must have been to survive on the streets and in a shelter. By the way, pink nosed cats and dogs need sunscreen on their noses when outside or they can get sunburn.

Congrats on the new addition to your family! I love when people adopt cats older than a kitten. He must be small if he's roly poly at 11 pounds, my cat is the thinnest cat you will ever meet and is 10 lbs. Anyway, on to the names.

What type of names do you like? Do you want a human sounding name? We had a white cat and I wanted to name him Pierre.

Congratulations on the new cat!

Super-meaningful names:

Axel ("axe" or "small oak tree; source of life")
Corwin ("heart's companion; heart's delight")
Dante ("lasting, enduring")
Finian ("light-skinned; white")
Finlay ("blond-haired soldier")
Hugo ("bright mind; bright spirit")
Magnus ("great")
Merritt ("valuable; deserving")

Fun names:

Archie
Bucky
Binky
Indiana
Woody

I recently lost my beautiful white boy (he had blue eyes -- he was deaf. He was also the most divine kitty EVER!)

His name was Kasper.
