These are some fun names. Our cats are named Max and Ruby for the cartoon bunnies.
Always fun to pick out the new name for that fur ball you have just brought home. Always interested to see what people choose.
I love the name Merida! Kelly Mcdonald is one of my favs and pair that with one of my favorite Disney stories and you have a recipe for a great name!
Cleopatra does have a nice ring to it plus Cleopatra also loves cats. My friend has a cat named Katniss, I guess it will also make a good cat name.
I think Katniss is a great name for a kitty! Our cats are Indiana Jones, Sammy Dean Winchester, and Boo Boo (her name when we started fostering her) AKA One Eyed Willie (given to her by my son because she has one eye and the Goonies!).
I really like the name Daphne and Duffy! However for a kitten, I feel as though Prada would be more adquate!
Oh these are so cute and clever! I think we’ll end up adopting a kitten at some point. I like these names!
I love these names. They’re all so cute but I think Katniss is my favorite.
What great ideas. I love the idea of naming one Prada. Or in my case it would probably be Coach, it is more affordable.
I LOVE the idea of fashion names like Prada – so very chic lol. These are all such cute ideas!
Naming a new kitten is so much fun! My daughter wants to name her new kitten Fluffly, I told her that is fine, but I like Katniss better.
I know many people that have struggled to decide on their pet’s name. I haven’t had that happen myself, I go with whatever feels right.
What a fun post. We don’t have any cats or kittens but these are great name ideas.
I love these names! We have two dogs named Teddy and Finn, coming up with their names was a lot of work! I love the idea of having a cat named Buttercup, so cute!
Oh I love all of these name ideas! It isn’t easy to name your pets! Definitely great ideas here for cats! Love them!
