Ha these are so cute! I love wookie. I would also love to know how they conducted that study. If the cat ignores the name, how do we know that they know it? Things to ponder :))
One of my best friends’ husband is into mythology, Star Wars and Marvel movies, so some of those names would be great suggestions for them if they get another cat.
“Ari” sounds so nice to me….and unique, too!
I think tsunami is a fabulous name! It would have suited my cat perfectly! Keep up these cool names.
Kronos sounds like a KING for me. Sequoia sounds so pretty for me. I think those two names I like the most!
Cool cute list! Funny that my cat’s name is Ambi (cat name and short for Ambrosia) and you have Amba on the list for large female cat. Well, my Ambi is still a small cat, I think, she will stay that way. 🙂
