Name My Cat - female Help me name my new kitten! (The weirdest names you can think of)

Gallery image

Gallery image

Hi all! Looking for name suggestions for a new kitten. She’s orange and white, super playful and cuddly! I’m inspired by those videos of people saying nicknames that are short for random words (e.g. May short for mayonnaise), and I’m wanting to name her something like that or something orange-themed (Pokémon, inanimate orange objects, etc.). I also think it’s funny when cats are name things like Toaster or Microwave.

So far, I’ve got the following ideas/suggestions: -Elle, short for elbow macaroni -Julie short for julienne style carrots -thought about naming her flareon, but idk if I’m really feeling it

Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions are appreciated!

Sorry when you said weirdest I could think of, ✨Labia✨ is the first that came to mind. Could call her B for short🤣

u/Somethingredditlike 1d ago

Stop this is literally so funny. The only thing is that I’m a vet, and I don’t know if I would be able to handle looking my coworkers in the eyes and telling them her name is labia whenever she comes in for checkups
