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?

Oh god she's so cute. She reminds me of my last cat - not useful for you but he was a massive ginger Tom with a bit of Maine coon in him and we called him Brian.

I'd go,for Lady Marmalade in your case though

miss having a cat and glaring at spoilt only child dog

Definitely Krunchie

EveningOverRooftops · 07/05/2021 20:54

Well, soon enough you’ll blend the two kids chosen names and be calling the kitten TwatKat. So maybe start with that Grin

Ericaequites · 07/05/2021 20:56

Lyle or Lyla would be for the Golden Syrup? Cats respond best to two or three syllable names with the first long, or iambs or dactyls.

SmileyClare · 07/05/2021 20:56

KittyMcTwixKat has a ring to it.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 07/05/2021 20:57

I have no idea - but that the cutest cat ever!

Ginger Knut 🤭
I like your thinking - it's very easily rearranged for when she reaches 9 months old until she's about 17.

Although I'm thinking she looks like a Wotzit.

And then you'd need to get a long, shorthaired cat named Pringle.

Cryalot2 · 07/05/2021 21:06

There is only one name for such a gorgeous kitten.
Kuttie pie. (She is cute)
Karamel is good.

WiddlinDiddlin · 07/05/2021 21:06

Keith
Ferrous Oxide
Wotsit
Krunchie

Knut (Ginger)

Id suggest everyone sticks a name in a bowl and someone picks out the winning name.

@CherieBabySpliffUp

Having seen her my vote is for Karamel.
Agreed
JellyTeapot · 07/05/2021 21:17

I like Gingernut, with Ginny for short (also for another fantastic redhead, Ginny Weasley. I may be biased, my new overlords came home on Wednesday and are called Molly Weasley and Minerva McGonagall Grin)

Cheddar is the best cat name ever.
But penguin would suit.
I also like Biskoff, and Krunchie

Caterinaballerina · 07/05/2021 21:29

She’s so golden like a crunchie so definitely krunchie

Hankunamatata · 07/05/2021 21:29

Krunchie gets my vote as she is colour of honeycomb

Latte40 · 07/05/2021 21:31
