Cat Names?

Uh, I didn't do it.
I just got a new cat. She's about 5 years old. She was a Hospice cat. The nursing home had to get rid of all their cats so she needed a home and I was quick to step up.

Thing is, she doesn't really have a name.

When we first got her back when I worked there her name was something like Perrin? Or somthing like that. But some residents called her Tigger, and the administration officially called her Daisy to match one of the other cats' name. She responds to none of the names, so this might be a chance to give her a name.

I want a unique name. Has to be female, and easily made into a nickname.

Here are some of the names of the female cats I've had before, so none of these.

Chloe, April, Pepper, Sadie, Maggie, and Molly.

The cat is a grey/black striped American Shorthair mix. Tan/brown nose and REALLY green eyes. She has a unique personality. Not an overall cuddly cat, but can be loving when she wants to be.

Some names I was thinking of; Toshiko (Tosh for short), Bast (as in the god), Tara (not just from Buffy, the "towering rock" (Hill of Tara... since she likes high places), someone mentioned Schrodinger but that might be mean, plus it's the same person that came up with "Cathulu"... ideas?

I ask you guys cause that friend just came up with "Captain Cat Harkness"

(the green eyes remind me of molly moon from a book. =|)

Kathulu? Looks like someone watches alot of South Park. XD



Try to give a name to her that is something about your cat's life.

Ok, so she has Green eyes. So maybe a word for green?
Your cat is really Lucky to have a new home, so a word for lucky?
Or a word for unique?

Or have a name that just...feels right to you.
 
Felindae. Perhaps a variation of that? Like Felinda, Ferindla, Fedaelin? (Felindae is the taxonomical class of felines, I believe.)

Or maybe Sylvia or Kokaviene, the latter is a butchering (the most straightforward phonetic spelling) of a Hebrew word meaning star.

I've got my thesaurus out.

Green: viridescent, lime, emerald, olive, verdant, verdue, viridian
Lucky: serendipitous, blessed, favoured, fortunate, auspicious
Unique: exceptional, only, peculiar, rare, sole, uncommon, alone

My suggestions underlined.

How about Biscuts? It is easy to remeber and could be shortened to Bis.
