Thread: complete beginner

thank you for all your advice, we went to see the litter this evening and here's my girl, she's yet to have a name any ideas greatly appreciated, I like storm as she's the colour of a storm cloud but other members of the family arent so sure ;)

She looks so sweet,choosing a name is one of the best parts of having a new babe,I like Storm,leave that name in the hat & see what you think next time you see her,in the meantime you have laid down the "base line" the rest of the family have to better it,might even come down to names being drawn out.
Will look forward to finding out....x

What a cutie !
My first thought was: oh a little Mable ...

But what I want to say with that: The first name is mostly the one you chose

She is so adorable. I just want to kiss & nuzzle her little nose. Nothing wrong with Storm or Stormie. Our last kitty was a solid gray that looked like a big storm cloud. Perhaps as you visit more you'll find the name that fits perfectly.

With each of my furbabies we had a brainstorming session until we came up with the name that seemed to 'fit'.

Having said that, each of them now has their posh name that no one uses and also the name we chose in the brainstorming which we think of as their 'real' name and is the one we gave the vet and the insurance.

They also have a few other names that just develop. This causes very few problems with Poppy who is deaf and thinks her name is 'a happy handwave'. The others respond to the tone of voice and don't seem to mind being called 'Mum's Pretty One' or 'Handsome Clean Boy' etc. Names are great fun - the right one comes along and you know when it's right!

She's gorgeous!
As everybody says, the right name will suddenly be obvious ... whatever you decide, enjoy your lovely little girl

She just told me her name is Sophie

That must be the name she wants you to call her by - all cats have a 'real' name that they rarely reveal to us apparently...... We call ours several names - many of them unrepeatable (and I suspect the same as a lot of you call yours too - especially those naughty tortie owners - don't get me started!!)

Purrrrfect

I think that suits her. She looks like a little Sophie.
