A few obvious ones relating back to the thread title:

Muffy  
Taco  
Snatch  
Okay, I swore up and down that I would name my next cat Sabretooth or Hobbes (that was 3 cats ago) but apparently my vote on cat names has dwindled to zero in this household. You have my permission to use one of those. Here’s a few more I never had the whiskers to use: Roadkill and Dog Biscuit.

Molly Whiskers - Mrs Alien’s choice for our next cat, even though Loopy is alive and well and still destroying furniture.

I’ve always had this strange desire to name animals after different animals. Therefore I suggest you call your kitten **rabbit**.

Of course this works best if you have a rabbit called dog, and a dog called cat.

Dog is always a nice name for a cat.

Otherwise, seeing as how it’s gray, something weather related, maybe? Like “Stormy”, or “Blizzard”, or “Hey, the wind’s carying off our lawn chair” (Htwcoolc for short).

Pi.

I am strongly in favour of naming cats after mathematical constants.

How about ‘Non-witty thread title’? Or ‘Dead horse?’

Wait until you get a feeling for the cat, then give it a name. Although with kittens, that can be difficult. My cousins named their two cats ‘Wildcat’ and ‘Cuddles’. Guess which one went crazy and dissappeared, while the other remaind firmly planted on any available lap?

Name your cat Meatros.

It’s a distinctive and important sounding name…yeah…

SHE! It’s a girl, folks.

**Saph** : Zeke thinks I am a traitor, and I am. I think you’re just jealous.

**Max** : I kinda like ‘Rascal’, actually, even for a girl kitty. We’ll see how ornery she is first.

**Ringo** : I don’t know who either of those people are. Sorry.

**jackelope** : I know.

**Great Dave** : Are you suggesting that this has been done before?! _GASP!_ You have got to be kidding. :rolleyes:

I like pets with “human” names. It kinda throws people off. Name her Lucy or Gracie or Henrietta or something.

Meatros could be a female name…How about Meatras? Meatria?

I’ve always wanted to name a cat, Buttface.

Just because it’s so unfitting the grace that most cats seem to have.

Plus, Buttface makes me giggle.

I’m 23, why do you ask?

Or Rover. Rover or Fido would be a good name for a cat.

Karma. That way, when the little thing does something wrong, you can shake your finger at it and yell, “BAD KARMA!”

Regardless of what you name her, make sure she has a title as well. Like **Princess Karma**. Or **General Buttface**. Along these lines, I someday plan to have an trained attack turkey named **Private Gobble-Gobble**.

[sub]Y’know, **General Buttface** does sorta have a ring to it…[/sub]

I had a friend who once had a cat named Pita (Pain In The Ass). Or you could follow **Serendipity** ’s lead and name her Major Pain.

How about giving her an SDMB name?

Invisible Pink Unicorn  
Magical Sky Pixie  
Hampster  
Hi Opal  
Og Smash  
Cecil
