To ask you to avert a war and name our new kitten...

Today our new overlord kitten came to live with us.

There is outright war between the DSs over her name.

DS1 wants Twix Or Elektra
DS2 wants Karamel or KitKat

The only thing they could agree on was that she either needs to be named after a biscuit/chocolate or have a K where there should be a C (this is due to the name of our old chap who we lost)

Having exhausted my peace keeping abilities I turn to the wisdom of mumsnet (with the half-hearted approval of the DSs) to declare her name.

The secret hidden option is to get another kitten and let them name one each

Pictures of the furball attached ....

So AIBU to stealth boast about how adorable she is ask you to name her?

Twixkat and you can call her Twixie for short.

CCC1 · 07/05/2021 20:19

She is adorable. I am just going to Chuck a couple of random k words into the mix.

I think a third choice so neither child wins

My favourites are Krunchie or Karamac

Pinkpaisley · 07/05/2021 20:19

IMHO that cat’s name is Toffee

LadyWhistledownsQuill · 07/05/2021 20:21

I'm not a big fan of brand names for pets, so I'd take Elektra from that list BUT it's a new kat so KitKat does work...

Beamur · 07/05/2021 20:22

Gorgeous.
Of your list I would go for Twix. KitKat is a bit like calling her cat cat Grin

Just throwing in a curve ball... Rusty.

Please let us know the final decision Op. I hope peace can be restored soon.

Karaway
Koriander

Biscuit in my language is Kiks so Kiksy perhaps, but I would overrule your dc and call her Alba.

stclair · 07/05/2021 20:28

Ginny, short for ginger biscuit 😊

KirstenBlest · 07/05/2021 20:28

Katie

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 07/05/2021 20:31

Ahh she's gorgeous (and aren't you lucky to get a ginger girl ? )

I'd have Twix for a tortoishell (the brindle ones not tricolour)

I'm throwing into the pot:
Werthers
Lotus (that biscuity spread)
Kia-Ora (too orangey for crows Grin )

Caspianberg · 07/05/2021 20:33

Ketchup
Kimchi
Kiwi
Kulfi

Bythehairywartsonmywitchychin · 07/05/2021 20:34

Katarina
Kitty
Catarina - Katarina if they want to use a K

She’s very cute 🥰

Eggsley · 07/05/2021 20:34

What about Kira?

Spira with a K... loved a Spira, wish they'd bring them back.

Or Karix? Karamel + Twix

babbaloushka · 07/05/2021 20:35

Pumpkin or Jaffa are my favourites.

sallyedmondson · 07/05/2021 20:35

We had a ginger Tom who looked like that as a kitten. Foolishly we let our son name him. The name was?

EARWAX

LadyCatStark · 07/05/2021 20:37

Just Kit. Then she’s Kit Cat 🥰.

LookingGlassMilk · 07/05/2021 20:39

Katinka

Caramelsmadfuzzytail · 07/05/2021 20:42

Karamel is the way to go. I have a ginger female called caramel. There is no better name.

SmileyClare · 07/05/2021 20:46

Peanut butter kit Kat. Might have to be shortened Hmm

Or keep it simple: "K"
