Picking a Name. Calling All Pets!

There are so many names out there….

Holy guacamole! As my daughter would say.

Thousands of them!

Finding one isn’t easy. How do people choose the perfect name? I’d love to know. Take the survey below!

Since we got our rescue kitten, we’ve been trying for new names… So adorable that sweet little baby girl.

Aren’t all these great choices? List from www.catnameslist.com/femalecatnames

Agh!!! so manyyyyyyyyyyyy to choose from !!!!!!

What to choose??

So, because we love and miss our late kitten, Rose, we looked to find our new kitten a similarly cute name. We thought of Little Lotte (from Phantom of the Opera), April (as she was born in April some time), and others like Rosey, (since she has these incredibly pink ears and a sweet pink nose!) and it would be in honor of our sweet Rose.

We just loved our little girl so much!

———————(=^..^=)———————–

But I think we are naming her something related to Rose, instead of using her name (which we want to keep in our memories forever).

Well, we’ve searched high and low.

And since our other kitten’s name is Pinty, short for Pintorelli (which is Italian — since there is my other passion: all things Italian), I searched for an Italian name for girls, and voilà, came up with Lia, which found out it means rose, beautiful rose to be exact! We seem to love it! What do you think?

somebody call me? yes???My fiancé calls her princess all the time “Where is the little princess!?” and out she comes running and jumping up and down.

Its just too cute. So “Princess” + “Lia” fits the bill. Just like Star Wars Princess Leia, LOL!

Hahahahahaha! No.

Just Lia.

love kittens

A bit of tea please! with a couple of scones!

Lia is soo good for her. Its meaning is “bearer of good news” and it is a “beautiful rose” in Latin. Couldn’t be better, don’t you think?

We’ll see!

  1. That’s a lovely name for a very pretty kitty 🙂

    My two are named for characters in my favourite book – Lord of the rings. My little girl is called Sammie (Sam) and my boy is called Frodo.
