Cat Chat Feline Forum

Trying to decide on a name for my new little boy kitten. So far, I’ve thought of Scar, Calvin, Tommy, Cash, Haze, or Jasper, Picasso, and Apollo.

We also got him on May 4, so a Star Wars themed name would be suitable too. I thought about naming him Anakin or Luke Skywalker.

If you guys have any name ideas for Him, let me know please

Hi there! What a sweet boy. As for a name, as much as I like there to be another Tommy in the world (I had a Tommy and what a superstar he was), I think your boy would make a wonderful Anakin. Not a name I would have thought of, but I think it suits him.

May the Fourth be with you.

just practice calling the name outside late at night in full hearing of anyone passing

one syllable names tend to morph into 2 or more sylllable nicknames, because they're easier to call

Yoda must be on the list, surely, with those gorgeous ears

Now there's a point! My sister was adopted by a cat (he just turned up one day). Long story, but the owners didn't want him back. When she found out his name she said ' if you think I'm standing on the step shouting 'Elvis' you can think again!'

He's got ears like a lynx, beautiful boy, perhaps 'Lynx' might be suitable, but you've already got a good long list.

Names are so subjective anyway; once I was on a snake forum and someone asked for help with naming a snake - well, you can spread yourself a bit more with a snake name, as the snake isn't likely to be answering to it, so I drew up a string of lyrical/romantic names and posted them. 'We-ell,' came back the reply, 'actually we want to call him 'Fluffy' ...'

Looking at him and seeing a certain similarity to my Tilly at that age, I wondered whether he ought to be called Dennis the Menace!

Weird, I actually thought the name 'Lynx' suited him too and then saw your comment
