KITTY SMOOSHY FACE! (with kitten pics!)

Yes, that was a ploy to get you to help my name my new kitten. But first:

Awwww!
Kinda evil looking here
Cuuute
Kitty smooshy face in blankets!

There we go. Now, I hate all the fluffy-and-rainbows names that my friends have suggested and every twenty year old girl names a cat. This little man will not be a Mittens, or Smoky, or Muffin, or that stuff. Potential names:

  • Kafka
  • Horatio
  • Gogo (full name Estragon)
  • Zoom (in honour of one of my favourite childhood books, Zoom At Sea
  • Steve (just really a great cat name. Steeeve.)
  • that’s it so far

So basically, I’m going for either an existential philosopher or Shakespeare character, but any awesome name is good. Any suggestions would be great!

Cute cat.

I like Horatio. It’s just such a great name (but Steve is good, too).

Awww. Kitten!

Kitten kitten kitten kitten Kitten!

You could name him The Evil… ‘Evie’ for short…

…though ‘Steve’ is good, too.

I would name him Bob. Horatio is good, though.

I’d personally call him Smooshy Face. I think that’s a terrific name for a cat! Please keep in mind, however, that I also personally have a cat named Fuzzy Face (see, she has this face, and it’s fuzzy!). I’m also a fan of “Steve.”

Well, you can’t have my next cat name - The Magnificent Fangmeyer. My first cat was named Lou. He was Lou at the shelter when I got him, and it suited him too well to change. It makes lots of great nicknames, too, which is important for cat names. :smiley:

Has the Cutest Kitty Ever done anything to suggest a good name yet? Any habits or strange interests (ALL cats have strange interests)? How about Fuzzbottom? Archibald (although that seems to be more of an orange cat name, for some reason)?
Bogey (short for Bogart)
Bugsy
Cecil
Darth Vader
Dusty (cause he’s grey - not quite as bad as Smokey)
Greymalkin
Guido
Killer
Bes (Egyptian Dwarf lion-god of good luck and fortune)
Here is a list of Shakespearian baby names.
Moth would be a good Shakespearian name for a grey kitty.
Oliver’s a good cat name.
Stephano is a Shakespearian name (and it shortens to Steve! Hey!)

He looks like Trouble. Or possibly Fang.

Deimos. Or Vince.

Looking at the size of his paws, you should just name him Monster, cause he’s gonna be a big’un.

How about Tom Aquinas? Marcel? Pascal? Simon (for Claude Simon)?

Okay, here’s a good one - Beerbohm, the longest serving mouser at the Globe Theatre in London (and he’s a tabby, too).

No, I don’t have anything better to do. :smiley:

Ooh, I like Stephano, and Pascal. I tried calling names to him to see which he’d respond to, but he’s quite pre-occupied with attacking his own feet right now, so he’s ignoring me. He’s quite the hopper, too; he was bouncing around the living room all last night.

I think I’m in love.

Definitely Steve. I’m a big fan of mundane names for animals. I have a cat named George.

He’s a hopper? You gotta name him Q-bert!! Happy Kitty!

Awwwwwww!!! Cute li’l fuzzer!

He looks like a Pascal to me, especially if he walks on your computer keyboard. But Q*Bert would be a good name, too.

That’s basically what you should always expect to have happen when you call his name. The Neville kitties don’t seem to know their names. Actually, I suspect they do know their names, but they only respond to them when they want to.

OK, I have my captions for each of those photos (in order):

“Meow. Meow. Meow. me-e-E-E-E-O-W-W-W-W-W! OW! OW!”

“If you take that picture, I am so going to smother you in your sleep.”

“Ah-choo!!!”

“I vant to be alone!”

If he acts unusually knowing and superior, name him Cecil.

Otherwise, Smoosh. Or Little Ed?

Hoppy kitty == Cricket.

Franklin Delano Romanowsky

that or Englebert.
