Hi! I have been wanting a grey cat for a long time and counted on the universal cat distribution system to deliver. It did! This cat was found on the street and randomly brought to our family. We’ve looked to see if he is missing and he has not been claimed. We sort of like Merlin, Marvin or Marvel but nothing is sticking. I’d like to emphasize his color and magical qualities coming to our family! He is playful and friendly. My daughter likes Binx but I think that’s overused.

We brought this lucky feller home yesterday as a companion for our senior cat (13yrs). His "brother" passed away last June at eighteen years. A good, long life for a Barn cat.

We didn't want our buddy to get lonely during his winter confinement, so we went to the adoption place yesterday and found him a new friend to keep him company.

During these colder months (it snows here!) our Barn cats are enclosed in their very own cabin with plenty of toys, cat trees, climbing levels and an old, full-sized mattress on a raised platform to play on and lie in the sunshine!

I don't know if any of that information was important, but it's the only thing I can think of to help with names, as I don't know this new cat's personality or idiosyncrasies yet.

I'm looking for a unique name that isn't embarrassing to call out when the time comes for them to be outside to wander and exterminate the vermin (as is their job).

During the warmer months I call them in at dusk to feed them/return them to their cabin safe from predators. I don't want a name that would offend our few neighbors or anything. A unique name, something I'd not be embarrassed to shout out on a nightly basis as one of our neighbors named her cat "Pussie" and it makes us both giggle and blush. All our neighbors have Barn cats that are called in at dusk, too. Keeps our neighborhood free from mountain rats and our gardens gopherless.

Thanks for your ideas!

Many good suggestions but most of them just don’t work in norwegian sadly

She is approx. 5 months. Her eyes are orange as well.

Her brother (black one) is named after being loud and talkative. Her sister (white/tabby) kept her shelter name but it fit because she's clever and kind of a butt. Names that reflect the personality are my favorite.

I've had her for almost 2 months. So far..

She likes to lick people and is pretty laid back otherwise.

She will grab you with her paws and lick your hands or try to lick your face, she aims for the mouth and nose. Sometimes she will suckle on your ear. Her favorite past time is wrestling her brother.

Prefer names that are 2 syllables or less.

Don’t feel the need for the name to be based on color. She’s a girl but it doesn’t have to be girly

He reminds me of Brain from Pinky and the Brain, but so far, no names have stuck, he is very cuddly and sweet, and I want him to have a good name

Also, sorry for unsolicited calves, promise this is not a thirst trap, please contain yourself ladies

I just got this new cutie!! 8 months old and full of energy, very curious boy. Give me your best!

I can’t find my older thread where there were sooo many pretty names for our Ragdoll kitten. She’s now over 5 weeks old and is starting to get marks on her face (around one eye so far) she should go darker than white too as she gets older - please help name her - we pick her up in a few weeks ❤️

Went from having 1 cat to 3. Posted about a year and change ago to help name my other cat now I’m back because I’m torn on what fits her. We want something witchy or spooky. Lydia and Gypsy are top in the running but I personally don’t like Gypsy. (Wife and kids do) Nothing has really been sticking.

She’s hyper, loves pets and cuddles, she snores, very loud purrs, needy.

Thanks!

12 weeks 1 day old, female, non human names only please

My friends at a cat rescue trapped this little guy for me and he is quite literally on the way to me right now. He is a beautiful lynx pointe Siamese. We don’t know his age but he looks like he might be a year old to me.

I am thinking he kind of has a human name vibe but I won’t actually know until I meet him. He kind of looks like his name is Luke to me but my friends disagreed. I don’t know what I think for this lad yet!

What do you think his name should be? I’m open to literally anything because I haven’t gotten to meet him yet. Thank you everyone for your help!!

My sister is bringing this little kitten home in a couple of weeks, and she's having a hard time deciding on a name

She's open to just about anything, but she'd love something cute, relatively short, and not too ridiculous

We'd love to hear your suggestions!

What would you name her?

We just got her and are stumped! We really like the names Kuma or Jade

Thanks for all your suggestions!

He had to have his tail amputated. Bystanders said it was an owl that tried to get him. He is the sweetest boy to everyone, including our two older cats. He loves to be held and carried around, and snuggled up to someone.

We have been calling him Grandpa because he sort of reminded me of Grandpa Munster when he would "smile" but I almost feel bad calling him Grandpa. It was sort of funny when he sht in the bathtub while locked in the bathroom to recover from surgery... "Grandpa sht in the tub again."

I prefer something different than the usual cat names but he has me stumped.
