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?

Such a pretty kitten, enjoy!

Jane - that is her name - she does not want a cute name as she will grow up and she dislikes chocolate- Jane or Lucy

When we were cat searching we did a shortlist of names
Our Ginger Cat names were

Phoenix (risen from flames) but sounds a bit too much like Felix
and
McVitie ( as in GingerNut)

Orange Kream? Hobnob?

Kiri (brand of milk powder in Egypt)
Kally
Kleo

And she is absolutely gorgeous.

Loving the names - particularly Earwax! I laughed out loud at that one.

Chickoletta · 08/05/2021 09:26

I love Dodger! Not keen on any of your choices I’m afraid. We once had a beautiful ginger cat like this who was called Jaffa. Could that work? Jaffa Cake?

Topbird29 · 08/05/2021 09:39

She is gorgeous. I like Krunchie. Matches her colouring. And has the advantage of being neutral so neither sibling "wins".

Jellybabiesforbreakfast · 08/05/2021 09:47

I like the suggestion of Phoenix... it's a pretty name and she's a pretty girl.

BlueEyesWhiteDragon · 08/05/2021 09:53

Well I have to say 1 day in and shes a little brat.

She woke up at 3.30am with a huge case of the zoomies and just charged around the place for what felt like forever but probably was only 30 mins. However in this kerfuffle she woke up all the dogs. She then somehow got on top of the curtain rail and promptly wailed for assistance before getting down herself once I'd got up to help her.

At that point I decided I was awake anyway and as I needed to get up at 5 I wouldn't bother going back to bed and instead would play with her for a bit, got out the toys and she immediately went to her basket and went to sleep!!
