The Spanish word for witch is Bruja (broo-ha)

What about Mayfair, like the books by Anne Rice?

Or you could call her Willow, if you're a fan of the show Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

They black cat from Hocus Pocus was named Binx.
Within the weather theme there's always Tempest, Cloudy, Squawl....And other synonyms for storm....

I had to read through the whole post to see if it was mentioned, but I have to go with Brenda and Kathy... I'd name her Willow. (Another Buffy fan!
) If I couldn't use Willow, I'd pick Hermoine as I like the Harry Potter series as well.
And the little girl who plays her, forgive me I don't feel like looking it up, is adorable.

Binks (though it might sound kinda boyish) is the name of the black cat in the movie "Hocus Pocus" with Sarah Jessica Parker and Bette Midler (I thought that movie was too cute
).


Going with Viva's idea

Bewitch is "Embrujar" in Spanish. I believe pronounced "M - bru - har". Emmy could be a nickname?

Bewitch is "Taikoa" in Finnish.

Bewitch is any of these in French "ensorceler, ensorcelez, ensorcelent, ensorcelons"


Witch is "Stregare" in Italian

Bewitching is "Adeyaka" in Japanese.

Witch is "Lamia" in Latin.

Witch is "Bruxa" in Portugese


That is a few translations that I was able to find. Out of the translations I think I like "Embrujar/Emmy, Taikoa, and Bruxa" the best.. although I think they are all very unique. Good luck naming her Val, she is beautiful.

This is so hard! I'm going to have to sit down with her and say a bunch of names
I had the same problem with Neo and Morpheus because they were my first two kitties
hmm wonder if the matrix has any new people in it with cool names!

I vote for Salem! I think it sounds pretty COOL for a little girl kitty name.

Here's the Oxford definition:

"a fabulous monster supposed to have the body of a woman, and to prey upon human beings and suck the blood of children. Also, a witch, she-demon"

It also reminds me of the wonderful ground cover I use in my front garden, called lamium, but I pluralize it (probably incorrectly) as Lamia. Its very pretty with a green and silver leaf, and a pretty delicate little purple flower.
