Lets play 'Name The New Cat'

[oddabe19]

So last week my girlfriend gives me an e-mail about a woman that has to get rid of all 3 of her cats because of allergies, or put them down. The woman was very broken up about it and what not. Now, grant my roomates and I have one cat already and we're not allowed dogs :cry: :mad: I decided to adopt one.

Her current name is Annie and she's 6 years old, the pic is in crummy condition (taken on my roomate's palm), but she's brown-orangish has tiger stripes but also looks like she's tortise hair. But she needs a new name. I was thinking something Greek Mythology-ish. My girlfriend suggests Cleo.

and another pic, she is the cat on the right, kind of balled up.

LETS PLAY NAME THAT CAT.

Paris
Helen

That's a unique cat feature: adoption. I'd like someone to try and adopt my 7-8 year old German Sheppard "Sasha" or my 3 year old Rottweiler "Bill". Ouch.

[oddabe19]

Here's the other catch, i really would like something unique, not really a 'common human name'...

not paris, not helen, I don't like paris hilton with a passion and helen is a common name.


I would LOVE to adopt your dogs... I wish we could have a dog... :-(

Those are from Greek mythology names dude. Have you not read the iLiad (http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~joelja/iliad.html) (Homer)..

Well, what is the cat's mood ? You can't name Garfield a proactive cat. [example]

[benplaut]

hmm

give the cat a nice, geeky name \\:D/

Fortran?

Ximian?


:roll:

actually, i have no good ideas, but the cat is cute! :-P

I wanted to name her /. or /dev or root and i even suggested Fortran, but my g/f decided that Fortran was the worse class for her Meterology degree, so that's out.

Sparkles the Ferret Cat

[BorgHunter]

My cat's name is Isis, after the Egyptian goddess of fertility. It's a fairly ironic name, as she's fixed...

EDIT: Well, threaded mode sucks. This got attached to the wrong post. Meant to reply to the original. Oh well...

[Monchy]

Sparkles the Ferret Cat

I second this name.:-P

[kvidell]

I second this name.:-P
I'd even like just "Sparkles" ;P

[Monchy]

Sparkles would be cool too, but you can't deny how fresh and unique Sparkles the Ferret Cat would be :wink:

Let people guess whether that means he hunts ferrets or if his mom was schtuped by one ;)

I say you call it SPARC

[benplaut]

I say you call it SPARC

i second that! :grin:

[Adrenal]

i second that! :grin:
Heimdall

[somuchfortheafter]

gimper... not that much a cat person but i like animals lol

[Lovechild]

Dunno, if I was ever to get a cat I would name it SPARC, likewise with a dog which I would call ALPHA.. at least geeks would like the names, and god knows it beats Fido

[Stormy Eyes]

Hugin and Munin (from Norse mythology: the two ravens that flew across Midgard by day and returned to Odin with news (and probably crapped on his shoulder on a regular basis))

[nocturn]

I like Nemo (not from the movie) and Spock as names.

[oddabe19]

Remember, it has to be a FEMALE name...

I suggested SPARC and ALPHA, but that didn't go over too well.

I like Sparky the Ferrit cat though.... hmmmm....

keep them coming


PS- Bored2k, i know they're from mythology, I just don't want a common human name as well

[CospeFogo]

Since you're a Christian, you may like these. They're Hellenized forms of Jewish female names:
Erotion, Protous, Dosarion, Tryphaina, Sambous, Ptoullous, Herais, Euterpe, Alexandra, Ambrosia, Domnina, Diogenis, Saprikia, and Thaumasis.

[jerome bettis]

i named my cat dog .. you can borrow it if you like. he actually responds to it too

[panickedthumb]

Go with Cleo, that's the best one here so far, and I once had a cat named cleo who rocked! Good name for a cat. :)

[JimmyBEng]

Freya, from Norse mythology. She had her chariot pulled by cats.

Also, a verse in the signature, good idea. May have to do that myself.

Angosha!
