Over the river and through the woods...
I don't know any turkish names, so don't think I can help you too much. Hopefully you will find some ideas on that website. Or, just narrow it down to a few, and if you can't make a decision, post them all and we can vote on them!

Of course, you know you HAVE to post a pic when you get one!

Keeping with the Turkish names:

Boy:


Halil = dear friend
Berk = solid and firm
Sevilin = \tbeloved







Girl:

Gizem = mysterious
Aziza = precious
Ayse = \t lively

I've found that trying to name a cat before you actually get one is next to impossible, b/c you have to have it for awhile to determine it's personality. For example: I originally was gonna name Winchester Barthalomew: but after having him for a few days, I decided to choose Winchester, b/c he was such a "pistol". And Geronimo was supposed to be Amadeus, but I ended up naming him Geronimo b/c he's such a "warrior".

That's just my opinion..

I tried to make sure our cats had musical themed names, given that my BB (Best Beloved) and I are both classical music fans.... so we narrowed it down to two names before we went to get a cat. Crotchet, and Minim. That way we could also have two cats and still make it work. As it happened, we fell in love with a cat called Emma (
) but she didn't looks like either a Crotchet or a Minim. We took her home. After a couple of days of hiding in the closet, she came out and took a leap at the window after a bird. She hit it so hard that the latch slipped and she almost went falling four floors!
Thank the Lord she didn't!! BUT, on the bright side, even though she had a headache, she inspired us to call her Tosca, a musical themed name - from the famous character who threw herself to her death in the opera.

Bootie on the other hand, is kinda musical in a roundabout way. She was very wobbly because of her brain damage, while she was still trying to figure out how many legs she had and how they worked. We had thought about calling her Grace (which she really had none of), or Faith because she was the last surviving kitten of 6 and she was the smallest and weakest. But when she finally got to her feet and managed to walk, her butt swung from side to side all the time. We tried Beyonce, but it didn't really stick. It wasn't quite her. BUT, "Bootylicious" came to mind..... it was a song, therefore a musical theme.... so Bootie it was.

I would definitely see what this kitten is like personality wise
You'd be amazed at how well it works!
