Help me name our black kitten

Just that really. We've had her three weeks but nothing has stuck so far.

She's tiny, smoochy and likes to climb up us.

She also has tabby stripes under her black but I've read she may grow out of these.

Any ideas?

Bramble

That's what mine was called for three days until the vet told me she was in fact a boy Blush

Myrtle comes to mind - not sure how that happened. She's beautiful, as are all the lovely black kitties.

Minnie
Bessie
Florence

Ahhh what a cutie !!
She looks like a Willahmena, Willa for short.

Inkling.

Shadow. She looks scared of her own 😻

Kotare · 16/11/2017 22:49

Ohh, Willow might work. Lots of fab idea that I shall run through with DD later today (am far, far away from GMT)

Shadow was on our shortlist before. I guess it could be shortened to Shay. She does have a permanently scared look. And is very clumsy as the scratches on my neck reveal!

In that first pic she looks just like Toothless in how to tame your dragon.

Hauntedlobster · 18/11/2017 13:09

Cola? Noir, Dia (I’m thinking of coal and diamonds)

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 18/11/2017 13:12

She's so cute!
DD says Lilia
DH says Soo/Sue/Sioux
I say Kara or Calista

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 18/11/2017 13:13

Or Ella

ChipInTheSugar · 18/11/2017 13:18

Ocho (no idea where that sprang from!)

Weedsnseeds1 · 18/11/2017 20:48

Gobolino was a boy, Sootica was the girl in that story.
Hecate
Lilleth
Jet
Ebony
Fae
Demdyke (as suggested by PP fabulous name for a witch's cat)

I read DD all these names and we ended up trialling Panda at the weekend. It didn't seem to work so now we are trying Mystery/Misty

Awww she is adorable. This is my black beauty, Samra. It's an Arabic term referring to dark complexion Grin her mother was called Shadow, she was also all black. Luna sounds lovely, but you said it didn't work with your DD.

Olive, to match her eyes?
Maya
I googled "cat in different languages", sounds silly buy there's some words there that sound like great, unusual cat names

Titch!!!!

MargotLovedTom1 · 21/11/2017 00:08

I know you said your dd is not into Harry Potter, but I really feel there is no name for that kitten other than Bellatrix Lestrange Wink.

mehhh · 21/11/2017 00:16

Coco!!

Apileofballyhoo · 21/11/2017 00:34

Luna. Latin for Moon and also handy if she is a bit crazy.

NickMyLipple · 21/11/2017 00:36

She looks exactly like my Mildred. She's also virtually impossible to photograph!

Cleo.

Ttbb · 21/11/2017 01:03

That cat looks like a Dora to me.

BoreOfWhabylon · 21/11/2017 01:06

Lilith

Kotare · 21/11/2017 04:46

Lol at Bellatrix. I love it! Mildred is gorgeous. I hope the cat with no name is as beautiful.

We had a rather stressful weekend with the kitten. DH came rushing through to wake me up on Sat am telling me the kitten had cut herself. We were lucky to get an emergency vet appointment. Vet removed the red wax skin of a babybel which was mashed into the fur of her arm with scissors and laughed at DH who is a doctor and should know what the insides of a mammal look like.
