Thor. I always wanted a cat named after a god.
What color are his eyes? Cat eyes are usually inspirational.

While we’re on foreign words for “black,” the Arabic word is Aswad. Like the name of the guy who sings with Sting.
Bongo.
Think about it. Roll it around in your head. Feel the way it rolls off your tongue.
Bongo. Bongo the Cat.
Ahhh, yeah…
That would never work. Bongo is a rabbit’s name.

I don’t know why, but I just love the idea of your taking your cat into the vet and filling out the usual information form with that name:
“OK, Mr. Geek , and what seems to be the problem with little Whysee…Wheezy… Um, how do you pronounce that?” **
I named my first male cat “Brother”. This caused a small incident at the vet:
Receptionist: "Hi, is this you new cat…errr (looks at screen)…Bother!?
Me: BROTHER!
After that I joked that the ‘r’ was silent.
Quasar!
A friend of mine named his cat CMOS.
Judo.
I don’t know why - it just came to me as I was reading this thread.
“Judo. Judo the cat.” Well, I like it.

I was gonna say Spencer , but I like gallows fodder’s suggestion of Carl better.
Emmy
We thought she was a he but she’s not. We originally named him Crash but after we discovered our mistake we hastily changed names.
Emmy was the [Regis Voice] Final Answer [/EndRV].
If you ever watched Dragon Tails you know where we got the name.
If you’ve never watched Dragon Tails - be thankful, very very thankful.
Xerox.
Works especially well since he’s black and white.
Also, you can tell people he’s a copy-cat.
I would be so honored if you named your kitty after me…Tiggamoo. Gotta admit it’s a fun name to say.
Uhh, hello? People, if you haven’t noticed, a couple of posts ago he ANNOUNCED THE FINAL NAME OF THE CAT. Okay? Just so’s we’ve got that clear.
[hijack]According to a once-friend of mine, and concurred to by my former wife all cats inherently are, and hence should be referred to as, DIPMOE: Disease Infested Physical Manifestation Of Evil.
Not “cat people,” those two.
