When naming I tend to go exotic. Names I would have for pets are ancient civilitazation's gods names or a mutation thereof, like Osiris or Illyria...maybe Artemis.

Video game manual are also a source of inspiration, the credits have many tantalising name offerings. What about naming her Noob, after the shadow ninja from Mortal Kombat? There's the advantage of the "n00b" joke in it for you :P

Well since she's a girl kitty Isis pops in to my mind.   

How about calling her Davidson and then your cats would be Marley & Davidson  :=.  Yeah ok, not too funny I know.    So here are some more serious suggestions:

  • Lenie - After that loveable character in "Of Mice and Men" who loved playing with mouses.

  • Jorgie - After Lenny's freind (see above).

  • Corazona de Noche - Heart of the night

  • Amorcita - Love...

  • Ratona, Ratoncita - Kind of cruel to call her mouse

  • Ojo - Big, beaytiful eyes? (pronounced o-ho)

  • Rosita - A variation of my mom's name

  • Tomacita - I grew up with a black cat named Tom.  He was by best friend ever and I miss him very much.   

  • Bandida - For stealing her way into your heart and home.

    That's all I can think of now.

Ooooh, exotic names? 

How 'about Quetzalcoatl? 

As an alternate, I nominate Fasadeculo.

Ponch

Why not call it Kinoko? Hell, I name all my pets and most of my furniture "Ponch", helps me remember when it's time to log on.

Quetzalcoatl's rep was ruined by final fantasy (8?) as far as I'm concerened...Naming an animal that is cursing them to lameness...

I feel strongly about this...Seriously...

How about Jenna? Somehow it suits her... ::)

Wasn't that one of the Guardian Forces? Eh, I changed the names of all of them. I think I named that one "Akingbola".

Chicky

I havn't read any of the other posts but i say call her chicky :D

PyroMonkey

She reminds me of one of Lynx's cat minions from Chrono Cross. So if it were me I'd name her Lynx, as it's also the name of a sort of wildcat.
 

Ashen

Shroom. Or how about Zale?

I like the sound of 'Malon', but that might be because it's one letter away from my surname.
I know what you're thinking ... Don't think that.

Sophia. Or Sophie. Short for Sophiana Jones (much weirder than Sophia Hapgood ;D ) . I can't really thing of anything cat related in the adventure games I've played.
Or you could call it Billy as a joke. Billy also means cat in urdu (well, it's Bil-lee actually).

Make sure you name it soon. We dilly dallied too long with a cat once, and it ended up being named Fluffy. Nekojinron.

Didn't go through all posts neither, but for a black cat, "Evil" for a name fits like a glove.
Or "cuppie", since you already bothered to ask here :D

Hmm, some great ideas but nothing clicks yet. Still torn between Alice and Malon >_<

What I physically -call- her has nothing to do with the name. I never call my cats their names... just 'baby' or 'pussycat' or something cutesy like that. The actual name is for bragging purposes really, and to make me feel cool.

I've already called one of my past cat's Neko, before I knew any Japanese so in was wrongly pronounced 'Neeko'... still cute though. Before that was Socratess, Misty (oh, so cliched) and Sylvester (I didn't name that one). After Neko came Ark, named after the hero from Terranigma.

You know what. I just sat here thinking and wondering about more video game heroins I liked... Babar, that name is PERFECT! Not because of Indy, but because my second favourite author of all time is Diana Wynne Jones, who wrote, among others, Howl's Moving Castle and Castle in the Air. Anyone who's ever read the latter will know, coupled with the knowledge that adore that book to pieces, why I'm going to name her Sophie (though, I hesitate to say why exactly because you should READ those books and I don't wanna give anything away... though I'm sure I've already done that by mentioning them in this context).

Sophie it is! Case closed!

Is she the eldest in a litter of three cats, and thus a certain failure?
