My little girl still doesn't have a name, so I need some name advice.

Hubby just keeps saying, "I'll have to think about it" when I ask him if he's picked out a name for her but I really don't think he has one inkling of an idea.

Can you all give me some names to throw at him to help him make up his mind?

Another question for you..Is it ok to bathe her now since she's been advantaged, and if so what should I use to get rid of the remaining fleas? I want to bring her from the basement to a room upstairs where it's warmer, but I don't want to deal with fleas, especially in winter. Should I advantage all the other cats before I bring her upstairs?
Can you tell it's been awhile since I've dealt with fleas?

I always wanted to name a pet 'Go Away'. so then I could just say 'Come here, Go Away' and really confuse the pet. But this is mainly for a dog than a cat as the dog will actually come to you.

You have to give it a few days before bathing. I believe it says that on the box as well as waiting a few days after baths to apply it.

How about Sadie? I dunno why that name, but it just came to my mind. She's calico right? Maybe because my mother has an Amish friend named Sadie who makes quilts, and calico makes me think of a quilt.

That's why my Dad's cat is called Mow. He just responds to it!

That's how I chose Luna's name. She only came when I called "Luna".

I also had "Penny" and "Shadow" going, but she didn't respond to either.

Brad wants to call her either Calli or Westie. I told him I don't want her named after a dog and he said Westie is a beer. Go figure? Now he's saying he's not sure again. What a man! I'll be naming her soon..

I think you could name a cat just about anything. It took ours a little while to learn theirs, but they did! Now I could call any of the three names and that cat will come. We cheat and sometimes give them treats, that's why they come when called.

Brad said I could call her calli. But now how to spell it? Cally, Calli, Cali, Caly Kali? My first choice is Cali. What do you all think??
