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?

Karamel or KitKat are great and suit colouring

On your theme of letters how about Kacey (pronounce Kay sea)

Your kitten is utterly adorable.

My name suggestions are:

Jaffa Kake
Orange Klub
Penguin

Or you could double barrel her name so the kids get one name each.

shinynewapple21 · 07/05/2021 23:09

She's beautiful .
Given her stripes I'd call her Tiger

shinynewapple21 · 07/05/2021 23:10

Or Tigger

thethoughtfox · 07/05/2021 23:22

Elektra

Twix is a great cat name! We know an Oreo and I love that name too for a cat.

Tillygetsit · 08/05/2021 02:14

Such a pretty kitty! I love the suggestions of Wotsit or Krunchy.
If she was mine, she'd be Geri as in Ginger Spice.

MooseBeTimeForSummer · 08/05/2021 02:50

Sorry. I’m still laughing at @SmileyClare’s suggestion of KitTwat from the first few posts.
Because all cats are twats at some point. Some more than others.

Yours,
Twattish cat owner
