Lara in Colo Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 (edited) Yes we went crazy and added to our family. We are having trouble naming her though. So far we have pixie mallomar (however we also have Mandy-dog and Maximus-VERY large cat) lady Godiva Stardust Paisley We've been thinking of things that work with her fur--(thus mallomar) the white sort of comes up into the black in streaks at the bottom (like some shots of space solar flares. We've also considered Greek/Roman/celtic names, but aren't that knowledgeable. She also has this cool spot on her nose...... And Yes the date is wrong on the picture LOL!!! Help please!!!!!

Brigitte Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 If Maximus is the large cat, how about Minimus for her. Call her Mini for short. Precious? That was the first word to come in my head when I saw her picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmom Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 (edited) I like stardust. Her eyes are beautiful! Or Lilly. How is here personality? Is she "sassy"? We had a cat that looked like that her name was ' kitkat'. Edited May 14, 2010 by hsmom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SapphireStitch Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Well, I'm partial to the name Paisley because we just adopted a stripy/swirly kitty who looks quite a bit like a short-haired version of your little furry baby there and we named her Paisley. I first heard it used as a dog's name, but it seems to be working out well for a kitten. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakia Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 My daughter says she would name her Millie. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lara in Colo Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 I really like paisley as well, but DH doesn't (not that his vote counts much-Max is his cat) what do you think about tempest or smudge (for her nose)??? This kitty seems hard to name, maybe I wore out the naming part of me with 4 children. Keep the ideas coming!!!! Lara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dobela Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Our cat that looks similar is called Tabby - short for Tabitha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie Laurie Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I think Smudge is cute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 If Maximus is the large cat, how about Minimus for her. Call her Mini for short. I like Minimus ("Mini") as well... She's adorable!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jujsky Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I like Malomar the best. What a sweet, beautiful kitty! Makes me miss those kitten days *sniff* I swear if I was a single woman I'd be one of those insane cat-ladies ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SapphireStitch Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Tempest and Smudge are both cute names. I picture Tempest growing up to be a very big, calm, lazy cat so that you have to explain to people all the time why she has that name. :D We originally thought we were going to get a boy kitty and I had all kinds of ideas for boy names. Clive, Nigel, Norton, Percy... IMO girl cats are harder to name because people use more creative names for girl children, which makes it hard to pick a cat name that's not in use for a child you know. Then I was up against DH and DS who always want to name cats after food items. Our tortie would be "Sweet Potato" instead of "Gracie" if it were up to DH. I put my foot down on that because I was not going to make a fool of myself yelling "Here kitty, here Sweet Potato!" across the back yard. :) Some other suggestions: Daisy Petunia Daffodil Lacie Lucy Ingrid Maisy Molly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormy weather Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 How about Dot or Dotty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristusG Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 DD 6's name is Paisley LOL! She used to crawl around, drink water out of a dish, and wear a collar like a kitty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I like minimus or Tempest. You could call her Tempi. She has a little glint in her eye that says she think she will be ruling the roost soon. :D Quite adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenL Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Oh, she is SO cute!!!! What about Tippy since the mark is on the tip of her nose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lara in Colo Posted May 15, 2010 Author Share Posted May 15, 2010 Oooo we like Tippy!!! That goes to the top of the list. Tippy Smudge Tempest Paisley For some reason her coloring reminds me of a comet's tail. But comet doesn't seem right. So what is black/grey and streaky?

Lara in Colo Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 WE DECIDED THE NAME!!!!!! DH said she looked all cosmopolitan (the black tie look). I said her fur striations reminded me of a comet's tail. And she is sort of kookie So her name is Cosmo. Thank you all for your efforts on our behalf, you really helped me think this through.

Well, tell her there's a little kitty in NC with her name. :D My DH and his twin weren't allowed to have any pets because their dad believed "animals belong on farms". He says they spent one summer at around age 5 pretending to be puppies...crawling everywhere and barking. My poor MIL. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teachin'Mine Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 My daughter says she would name her Millie. :001_smile: That's what I came up with too!!! But I like Mini, and Mallomar, and my daughter likes Stardust. She's darling!!! :001_smile: Munchkin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teachin'Mine Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Cosmo fits her perfectly!!! :001_smile: You could nickname her "Cosmo the Cutiepie". :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
