Original Names!

You all have some interesting cat names Mine are going to seem boring!! I have no reason behind any of my cats/dogs names, just because I liked them,lol. Sherman is just because, all though my friend wanted me to name him Picasso because of his markings. Theres Abby and Lily, Callie, and Chloe. My dogs are Molly(already had her name when we found her) Jimmie, well because we already had a Chevy(RIP) and hubby wanted something to do with a chevrolet....and then Amy(my pit) actually my 2 y/o called her that, so thats the name that stuck!!

Bakker-cause he likes to "knead" alots (esp at 3 in the morning)
Bobber-not to orginal as she is a bob-tailed cat
Grizzly-DH picked that name out but it funny as she is long haired and kind of chubby so we also call her grizzly bear.
Ox-strong big black cat who lumbers along.

Here are my two girls...

Polly - becuase she is a Polydactyl (so NOT very original) The name really does fit her though. She is cute and refined and very laid back and loveable.

Roxie - (formerly spelt Roxy, the vet accidently spelled it Roxie when I took her in, and I liked the way it looked better. So it stays. ) It took us over a week to name the kitten. My DBF didn't like ANY of the names I was coming up with. I new I wanted something cute and semi-human for her, like Polly's name. And something that goes with Polly.

Jordan likes to sing to the cats. Everyday, mainstreem songs. We were on the floor loving on the kitten who was sleeping in the toy box and he picks this tiny thing up and starts to sing to her for the first time. "Rooxanne! You don't have to put out the red light! Rooooxaane!" I jumped at that name, it was so cute. I said, lets name her Roxanne and call her Roxie for short. He liked it, so it stuck.

All these are sooo funny lol. I esp. like the videogame names. Jade's name was the name I was going to choose for my 1st daughter and that name acutually did come from Mortal Kombat Deception. ( I used to beat the boys up with that girl all the time lol) And the kitty we were slotted to get instead of Isis was a tuxedo and I was going to name her Syndel. that fell through tho ): Great names. Hope to see more this evening when I get back from work!

Loki was named after the Norse God of Mischief *LOL*

I'm pretty sure I've never met another cat named Trout

It sounds weird, but boy does it suit her now..I love her name.

Cookie is really Cookie-puss.. b/c he looks like puss in boots too! I haven't heard of any other cookies, suzies (at least of the kitty kind) and Zakk's at least around here. There are definitely some other Rockys and/or roxy or rockets around here, though I never would have thought it at the time.

Hubby reminded me, I forgot about Sugar. He started life as a she (the vet said he was a girl). He was born as white as driven snow, hence Sugar. Now he's an old fat white and gray striped cat who likes to be called Sugar-Booger. I would give a list of names, well, the ones I can remember at least, but it'd be long. We have a half-feral named Small Fry who's all black. She was really, really tiny when she was born...and I just watched Futurama before I saw her. LOL And we have an all gray kitten boy named Bender. Still waiting on an Amy and Leela. Yes, I'm a futurama fan. LOL

Lol, someone just asked me about one of my cats, Cajun, and how I came up with the name. My ex and I were just saying any words we could think of out loud for names, and I think I read a hot sauce bottle or something and said Cajun, and it stuck! And in my 10 and 1/2 years vet experience and coming across tons of new names every day, I only just saw another cat named Cajun about 2 weeks ago, but it was spelled Kajun. Weird though, he was 11 years old, just like my Cajun!
Elessar is named after a character from Lord of the Rings. I was going to name him Legolas after my favorite ( ) but it doesn't roll off the tongue like Elessar. Rain was named after a famous war dog they had on Animal Planet, and everyone else's names are pretty normal.

Festus is my girl cat. Her Momma was found, extremely preggers, wearing a collar. So I figured someone would claim her. I didn't plan to name her, but in time "Kitty" became "Miss Kitty". So when she had her kittens we ended up naming them after the Gunsmoke characters. Marshall Matt Dillon, aka Mattie, and Doc, Sam, and Festus. We didn't plan to keep Festus, but now she is our Festie, or Festus Marie!

My most unusual name was probably my foster Sugartoes. My kids found that name on a kitty name search, and I thought it was silly. I pictured a kitty with white sugar paws. Then I met Sugartoes, a sweet tortie girl with brown sugar toes...I knew that had to be her name.

I had a kitten as a kid who ran off the couch-and fell straight to the floor "splat". So I named her Lickety Splat! We had a black boy named Periwinkle, or Perry for short.

My last litter had twins. They were named Zazzou and Spazzou. So Arlyn, for a while, I had a Spazz. I'm certain her adoptive Mom renamed her!

We had dogs named Logan and Storm from the X-Men comic books. Logan was a rottie mix, with black paws but brown toes, like Wolverine's claws. Wolverine's character's name is Logan.

We adopted Storm, and her name was Lacy. She was so neglected that she had no idea that was her name. So dh named her Storm to match Logan.

I'm loving these great names!

I just loved the name Bijou (French word for jewel) and his eyes were like beautiful jewels. Unfortunately Bijou is a feminine name but we don't let him know that. He's such a masculine fellow he would be offended.

Haha thats great! All these names are awesome!
