Kitty and Thomas

DD is Kitty, would really like to use Thomas for boy's name. I love Kitty and Tom together, could I get away with it or does it really sound too silly due to cat overtones?!

sorry, couldn't resist...

Kitty is fab (I have one too!)
Thomas is lovely, but the cat thing might have bothered me......but if you really love Thomas / Tom then just do it. Fab names!
And I have a good friend with a little Thomas who is the funniest most gorgeous little boy!

i am bias but lurve thomas.(my ds2)and i think kitty and thomas are very sweet together.

I may be pregnant so suffering from some kind of brain absence but it took me a while to get it! How embarrassing! So Yes if you love Tom then go for it - if anything it makes life more interesting

frazzledoldbag34 · 31/08/2008 21:53

Hatrick - I can't believe you know 4 other Kitty's! Are they all children or older women? I know none (and only know one person who knows of another one). How strange that it's so uncommon where we live.
However, I absolutely love it and IMO it's one of the best names out there. My Kitty was always going to be Charlotte and we changed our minds when she was born (she so didn't look like a Charlotte) and I've never regretted it for a moment.

I didn't get the cat connection at all until you said, and I think those names are lovely separately and together, so go for it!

I know a couple called Tom and Kat. Now there, I did see the connection...

EachPeachPearMum · 31/08/2008 22:05

NAO - what does 'deluxy' mean please?

NotAnOtter · 31/08/2008 22:16

just lovely i use many such terms!

cheesesarnie · 31/08/2008 22:24
