Need Some New Kitty Name Ideas

My mum has been to see her new kitten today, with the intention of having a second furball to keep her cat Billy company. She totally copied my idea, however, I have said that I’d help out by asking for name ideas…

new kitty

As the majority of my readers are evil geniuses, I figured someone would be able to come up with the perfect name. Nothing rude, but otherwise all suggestions will be considered.

  1. What a beautiful cat. The colour is lovely. I’m afraid I am not good with names, sorry. :(

  2. Ajax. I think the name Ajax is adorable for a cat ;D

  3. Smokey? First thing that popped into my head since he looks kind of grey/silver…

  4. That cat is adorable! It looks like a Jinxie to me. lol… that was the first thing to pop into my head, but at least it could go for a boy or a girl kitty.

  5. Smokey was also the first name that popped into my head :)

  6. I such at coming up with names. But, I have to agree. I like Smokey. :)

  7. Ashes, Smokey, Silver, Diamond, Crystal, & Isis

    Hmm…if I think of any others I’ll let you know.

  8. Bastet! Or Isis.

  9. What an adorable cat! He (or she) reminds me of Aristocats.

    I like the name Yoda, its cute. :)

  10. uhm… Here are some cat names I adore.

    Felix
    Kuzon
    Haiku
    Hinx
    Lil’ grey
    Fantasia

  11. Or Dusty

    :)

  12. Hahaha, the best I can come up with is “ITTY BITTY KITTY!” ;)

    Okay, kidding.

    How about … Firefox? (It has quite a foxy looking face to me. :P)

  13. I don’t like Smokey, because it seems too generic. I know 3 or 4 people with cats called Smokey. I like Ajax and Dusty, though.

  14. Wanky McWankwank.

  15. Awwww…. Simba if he is a boy, or Nala if a girl – from the lion king… though he/she doesn’t look like a lion, more of a tiger kitty! Awww!

  16. With those big ol’ ears, it has to be Gizmo (a la the Gremlins movie)

  17. I love some of the suggestions for names here, however as Jem forgot to let you know perhaps I should. He is a seal point tabby siamese, so when fully grown will have black stripes on head/face/legs/tail so although I too like the name Smokey it wouldn’t suit him when he grows up. As for the ears, he will grow into them lol. Poor baby has no name…help, help :)

    p.s. for Carly – I like Simba too but Jem said it was a naff name :(

  18. I don’t like Smokey.

    I’m rubbish at coming up with names for animals (my last cat was Kitty), but for some reason he made me think of Aslan or Apollo – assuming it’s male, of course.

  19. He’s got the “M” going on. Mac? Monotone?

  20. I guess it is a bit naff, lol! But he does look like a little lion/tiger cub!!

    Just call him Frank. Or Bill. Or something random and un-cat-like.

  21. male or female?

    If female Katie – it looks siamese. I have a cuddly siamese cat called katie! (named after my favourite horse)

    Why not name ‘it’ after a character in your mums favourite tv show?

    I hate stupid names for cats, like smudge or whatever! (she says having 2 cats with silly names!!! but I didn’t name them so its ok!)

  22. Aw! It looks like a George to me, maybe. Or maybe Jekyll. If it’s a girl, I agree with Nala. :)

  23. He looks like a Sam to me. I can’t think at the moment because he’s so cute and it’s distracting me. :D

  24. how about l33t ?

  25. Hmmm…honestly, I suck at coming up with pet names. :P All of our non-fishie pets have food-related names (Muffin, Peach, Mocha). When my cousins owned guinea pigs, they named some of them after sodas (Sasparilla, Pepsi, Coca Cola, Root Beer Float).

    Or you could call him Ninja (got it from Ian’s comment about naming him “l33t” and I thought of Jem calling herself a “l33t PHP ninja”). :)

  26. Spock! Or Doctor Spock! I can imagine it crawling around a corner purring “live long and prosper….”

  27. I think Smeagol or Gollum would be fitting.

  28. Boy or a girl? If you said, I missed it…

    Azkadelia for a girl (Az for short….) or Eskarina (Esk) :-DD

  29. Boy
    – Delton
    – Denton
    – Terrance
    – Jaseppi

    Girl
    – Ada
    – Ele
    – Arden (Another word for enthusiastic)
    – Luna (Short for lunatic – LOL!)
    – Malei

  30. Such a cutie! Except for the ears that were not fennec-like on her, it reminds me very much of the cat I had at my parents’ place. Her name was Cléopâtre (Fr. for Cleopatra). But, well, that is totally trademarked to my family.

    I’ve had the ingenious idea of calling my cat Béatrice and since then I haven’t thought of any good name for a cat. I however am still an evil genius.

  31. Ashen

  32. Loki. The ancient God of mischief.

  33. Automatically though Gizmo because of his (her?) ears. Gizmo’s a good name, I have a teddy called Gizmo. Because he’s a gremlin, obviously.

  34. Artic is a lovely name for that kitty. :)

  35. Apollo if it’s a boy kitty, Artemis if it’s a girl kitty :)

    I love greek god/goddess names!

    Oh yeah, if it’s a boy kitty you could also name it Baxter!

  36. He’s really cute. I don’t have any ideas off the top of my head, though. Does your Mum like or dislike “food names”?

  37. Hi. Couldn’t find any contactforms or an email so I’m writing here. Your the owner of the Laptopfanlisting, right? (If not, maybe you can sen this to the owner?) I have been trying to join the Laptopfanlisting but it just says that I’m already a member. The problem is that I’ve never visited the site until today. Is there anything you could do to fix this?
    (If you answer, could you do it to my email? It’s [removed for privacy])

    Thx,
    Jessica.

  38. Jim Jabella!

  39. In order of how they came to me: Tigris. Günter. Theodore. Xerxes. Agamemnon. Pan. George. Alex. Max. Ludwig. Monsoon. (Okay, now I’m free associating!)
    I’d be better at picking a name if I saw video of him; when I name a furry family member, it tends to be personality-driven, so maybe none of the above are right for him at all!

  40. He looks like a Mephistopheles. You could call him Mephisto for short.

  41. He looks like a Peter. Wait… it is a boy isn’t it?

  42. So cute. How about the name Hattie or something? lol. I also like Wez. :)

  43. Oh, I forgot to write Stewie. That’s a cute name if it’s a boy!

  44. Aww what a sweet looking cat. What about, Dusty, Coal, Cole?

  45. Merlin is absolutely adorable. You ought to get a picture of him/her with Hex!

  46. Pinky. As in Pinky, as in Pink-y, as in the /pinkies/ on your hand!
    Pinky is a very cute name.
    The cat is a mixed breed of Lynx Point, yes? My Lynx’s name was Tinkerbell.
    Or whatever. :) Still, Pinky.
    Forget about Tinkerbell. And Yoda. And Hex. And Merlin.
    I don’t see how Disney, Star Wars, the number six, and old movies relate to Lynx Points at all!
    Pinky is relative because…well look at the cat. It’s obviously pink. :) :)

  47. awesome cat man, those ears are huge!

  48. awww cuteness!! I can’t think of a cute name right now, how about garfield? lol.

    NOOOO! :p
