help!!!
I need an unusual name for my male kitten?
I like the name Zannen. My friend had a cat named that but it was spelled "Xanon".
Reply:The Naming of Cats
The Naming of cats is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
First of all, there's the name that the family use daily,
Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James,
Such as Victor or Johnathan, George or Bill Bailey -
All of them sensible everyday names.
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames:
Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter -
But all of them sensible everyday names.
But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular,
A name that's peculiar, and more dignified,
Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular,
Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat,
Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum -
Names that never belong to more than one cat.
But above and beyond there's still one name left over,
And that is the name that you never will guess;
The name that no human research can discover -
But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess.
When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular Name.

Published in 1939 in "Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats".
Reply:Since chidhood, and to this day, all of my pets have been called Eric.
I've had Eric the Goldfish, Eric the Budgie, Eric the Cat, Eric the Dog.
A name is just a name and as long as they come when called does it really matter. At the vets, the females are known as Erica, but only to save embarrassment LOL
Reply:Personally,since we are talking about being unusual ,I would go wild and go with something very spontaneous,unusual but yet simple that would reflect its main character, or something completely "out there",like" Lord Verdauga Greeneyes" or something.
Why not visit i-love-cats.com,it`s quite cool and they have an extensive list of names from all over the world...
Reply:Rambo and Brewster are good.
Mine is called Thor. He's grey/blue - greek god of thunder. i think.
but now i think he should be called Salvador, after Dali, coz he's soooo strange and surreal.
what about your favourite drink? that sometimes throw's up a bunch of random names.
sorry, just read what i wrote, the throwing up and the drink wasn't connected.
yup, cannae beat How Superflouous(?sp) With Ceefor. gotta be the best name ever.

Reply:We had a hard time naming our kitten, we eventually chose Samson, BUT he has officially been nicknamed Fuzzy or Fuze since hes so fuzzy.
Reply:I was working at the animals services on friday and someone filled a lost cat report. The name of the cat was "stupid". Interesting name, felt sorry for the cat.
Reply:We had a lovely cat called Gizmo
or how about Charlie Rascal (from a childrens book)
or maybe Bilbo Baggins (from the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings)
