Kitty and Thomas

[lotsoflovelychocolate]

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?!

[LilRedWG]

I'm afraid I did think of cats when I saw the manes, but they are both still lovely names.

[kitsmummy]

I wouldn't think of the cat connection, think they're great names that go together well (slight bias possibly as my DS is Kit)

[ghosty]

I know girl/boy twins called Kitty and Stanley ... everyone calls them Kit and Stan. People were a bit when they were born but their names suit them now (8yrs old)

[SmugColditz]

catty

[reginaphilangy]

I didn't make the connection at all!

[CilC]

Not at all - it was just the beatrix potter thing. To be honest no one makes the connection! Stick with what you like!

[lotsoflovelychocolate]

Thanks for all your comments - I definitely feel happier using Tom now. My DH wants Jack so we shall see.

CilC - I love the name Tabitha but have been firmly told by DH and family that Kitty and Tabitha really is out of the question!

Hatrick and frazzle - I've never thought of Kitty as unusual but it's not common here either, we don't know any others anyway - knowing four is amazing!

[CilC]

I have a Tabitha and really wanted Thomas. My husband thought it was too catty....tomcat, tabby cat and also beatrix potter has these characters. I let him have his own way but I almost regret it. I think these two names are great! Go for it!

Hatrick 'hackton' and a really tight one is called 'perfect hackton'!

a weak lazy one is frequently a 'half hackton' - disappointed voice!

[thumbwitch]

pretty cat-like really but cute nonetheless.

[Gobbledigook]

God, I would not even think of cats

But then I hate cats and I've had half a bottle of champagne

[Gobbledigook]

THink they are lovely together.

Thomas is a FABBO name imo and my Thomas is blardy marvellous

i know a kitty age 2 and a 29 year old.lovely name.

[NotAnOtter]

just lovely i use many such terms!

[EachPeachPearMum]

NAO - what does 'deluxy' mean please?

[BEAUTlFUL]

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...

[frazzledoldbag34]

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 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

[cheesesarnie]

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

[NotAnOtter]

Tom is deluxy as well
