Maybe holy little terrors??Originally Posted by eilcon
Katie and Gracie are just cute little girl names that I like. Pete and Claire are named for saints, so they have a lot to live up to! They're definitely NOT holy little cats!

Stewie got his name from The Family Guy show. That is one funny show and one funny baby who has a Brit accent and wants to take over the world, kill his Mom, hates father...etc. It is very funny, check it out sometime on Sunday evenings or on Netflix DVD. Yeah, that is how he got his name.

HUGH fan as well of both shows as well as, Amercian Dad, Futuruma (off air but they might bring it back again like Family Guy). These are some funny shows for adults. Was thinking about naming the next cat Meg, but then everyone hates her. hahahaOriginally Posted by WillowsMom
HAHAHAHAI love it!! I'm a hugh Family guy fan! as well as the Simpsons!!
Well I only just decided on my little stray's name. I still say she's a stray cause I don't know if I'm keeping her yet. (Its all up to my mom) Well anyway. Her name is Miki. Miki (pronounced Mee-Kee) means 'tree' in Japanese. Miki was stuck in a tree for two days before someone brought the bucket down the dorms and went up and got her. So she was named 'tree' for how she was found.

Yea, no new episodes though....
My newly rescued cat "Mr. Tinkles" reminds me of the persian from "Cats and Dogs". Her baby is "Little Man" for now, because he's little and he's a boy.
Our dog, Tabitha, is striped like a tabby cat, and Tabitha is long for tabby. We breed her (boxer), and her babies aren't named yet, but I call them Eanie, Meanie, Miney and Moe.
Then, my babies, Thunder & Beans....Thunder has a white thunderbird on her chest, and Beans has a weakness for jelly beans. (Both Dogs.)

Kotton got HER name as her fur is as soft as cotton so I named her Kotton Fluff but later changed it to Lady Kotton as she is a Siamese LADY!
Ben is Benjamin and it means something like "sits at the right hand of God". I had just found out my big Poodle was dying when I adopted Ben and I was/ am hoping the name would protect him NOW he is called MR BEN! He is boss of the house now my big Poodle boy is gone.
Missy came with the name but I also call her Miss Missy as she is so beautiful and needed a special name.
Panther is part oriental shorthair and he is all black and climbs on my kitty trees and hangs over and just looks like a black Panther.
My Late Minnie was called Minnie the mooch by my ex as she kept asking for more and more food and got fat. Turned out she was pregnant so then became Minnie Mamma and after the kittens were weaned and we saw her hunt and catch possum and jack rabbit she became Minnie mouser. When I moved back home and managed to get her too she was such a LOVE and sooooooo good she became Saint Minnie or Syn Min or Cinnaminnie Sunshine Love of my life Girl.
My Beloved late Corkie was Minnie's kitten and the first one out of her "nest" (a hole under our porch) and the first in the door. I have English blood in my and was told that a special person is a Corker and since she popped out of the hole like a cork she became Corkie - then Little Miss Incredible.
Her late Sister was born black with an orange face and half a moustache and a goatee but I figure she was going to be a Calico like her Mom so called her Callie's Calilily Callie.
My Big Poodle was actually my Mom's till she died, and she tried all types of names for him. She taught ballet and was telling her German pianist about him. Her pianist said "OH little Schatzi"! Mom found out that Schatzi means beloved or sweetheart in German and Schatzi was a throwback to the heavier boned German Poodles (original Poodles) so he became Schatzi and BOY did he live up to his name. NEVER did he meet a person or cat he did not like!

My friend has a cat named Bender from Futurama.
My kitties...
Clover - I was in 5th grade and thought this was a cute cat name.
Autumn - She came with that name and it fit her so perfectly with her colors that we kept it.
Meeka - We thought she was a boy so named her Meko from Pocahontas. I always liked that name. Well lo and behold she is a girl so Meeka she became.
Hope - Hope was born with a chest deformity. She was no supposed to live, hence her name Hope. She grew out of the deformity and only has a slight neurological disorder resulting from this.
I knew for years that when I was able to get kitties, one of them would have to be named "Renfield" after the bug/spider catching and eating character that did all the dirty work for Count Dracula. Given the origin of the name it would have to be the crazier, more spazzed out one of the two. The second name, "Rochester" went well with Renfield and sounded more dignified and sedate. As it turned out I got brothers and each one fits his name to a T- Renfield is a nutball and Rochester is very calm and magnificient.
Our third is "Loomis"- mostly because he LOOMS up on you out of nowhere. It first came to me because I was confused about the character "Toombs" from an X-Files episode- thought he was Loomis, so I used it.
He is also the only one of the three not a littermate, so he is a bit of a red headed stepchild so to speak.
When we are feeling particularly absurd we use made up full names-
"The Viscount Rochester von Cearbhaill"
"Renfield, First Duke of Cearbhaill"
"Loomis, Black B**tard of Cearbhaill"
-mainly because we are idiots over pet names.
(Cearbhaill is our old kennel name as well)

Magnum - Magnum PI because he was so nosy as a kitten and investigated everything
Boomer - because he doesn't meow he makes this loud boom sound
Bumper - 2 part story - he has no coordination and bumps into walls all the time and we got him after he decided to hitch a ride to our house in the bumper of the truck one day
Scully - seemingly something to do with his big head but I think his previous owners were just closet xfiles fans

- Lucy was already named when we got her.. plus, she kinda looked like a Lucy, so we kept her name.
- Sassy was already named, and she was definitely too old to change names..
- Stinky.. well.. I think it's kind of clear how he got his name..

Actually it is basically made up. It is pronounced like POEM but with an "n".
It is from the "word" pwned. the guys who originally owned her were big role playing gamers, and they always say you got OWNED when they beat each other or whatever, PWNED is nothing more then a misspelling of that, it is a common mistake and a word they use all the time so they named her that.
Wowzer - I didn't name her, but she was named that by my neighbor (she was his cat) because she meowed so much and it sounded like a "weow" or "wow". When she strayed to our house and decided to live here, I wanted to change it, but I didn't out of respect. I think her name should be Sassy!
Gracie - because we wanted a cat with a regular nice name (most of our other cats names that had to do with their appearance or personality... Orangie, Scaredy, Fluffy etc.)
Nate - didn't name him either. He came with that name. I wanted to change it too, but he came from my daughters bf and I'm keeping it out of respect as well.

My cats both have people names, and it took me weeks to come up with both of them.
Samuel and Henrietta (Henri for short). It just fits them.

Dion - Named after Dion Dimucci of "Dion and the Belmonts" They were old Rock and Roll band in early 60's.
Frankie- Named after Frankie Vallie, another old time singer.
Bast- Egyptian cat goddess
Mort- don't know hot she got that name, spur of the moment thing.
Ollie-The old time Stan and ollie actors
Stanley-Old time stan and Oliie actors
George- He was a starving stray kitty we brought in and we named him George for the vet visit, and it stuck with him.
Bubba - He was born a fat butterball, and was named chubbs which transformed into Bubba over the years. He is on the rainbow bridge, he needed to be mentioned because he was a very special guy!

Able got his name via a play on words he was "able" to survive getting hit by a car and broken jaw that resulted from the blow
Blackie, because he is solid black. Katie was originally Skat because she is so skiddish and eventually became Katie.
