Help me name my cat!

Hello all,

I've shown this photo in a unrelated thread but thought I would put it here too.

I am adopting this little lady on Thursday. My toddler and I have come up with name of Marilyn Meow but DH isn't convinced.

Please help me name her! She is about 7 months old.

Awww, so cute. Gladys

Jessica? Marmalade?

I opened this thread on my computer and my cat went right up to the screen (yes she is currently on my desk) and booped noses with the photo and started head-butting the computer, she clearly approves Grin

I also thought she looks like a Marmalade, or maybe a Hebe?

DW looked at the picture & suggested Yvette.

Caramel,
I like the Hollywood Golden Age in many of your suggestions! Arabella is fab! And it’s a great song too....

Thomasina. What a lovely early Christmas present.

Chocolatecake12 · 17/12/2019 12:31

I came on to say marmalade but see a pp has beaten me to it!!
I had a cat called marmalade as a child and it was a tortoiseshell like your beautiful lady.
Keep us updated!

Something christmassy-ish? Mary? Carol? Delia?

Jingle?
Noelle?

I love Marilyn Meow. Marilyn for everyday BlushGrinConfused. It seemed perfect as soon as I put name and face together.

Jayneisagirlsname · 17/12/2019 13:00

Marilyn is great! I think she looks like a Gloria though too

Starstruck2020 · 17/12/2019 13:01

Carmella

DarlingNikita · 17/12/2019 13:06

She's gorgeous. Stick with Marilyn Meow!

StarUtopia · 17/12/2019 13:08

Maud

That's my next cat's name!

Nonstopbuttmachine · 17/12/2019 16:20

Aww she's beautiful, such a wise face 😺 Her black and orange colouring reminds me of a jaffa cake so what about Jaffa?

midsomermurderess · 17/12/2019 16:58

Mabel. All random cats are Mabel to me.

Papergirl1968 · 17/12/2019 17:04

Beautiful markings!

Thank you for the replies, the name that keeps appearing here is marmalade. I've been sent lots of videos of her and she seems to be super friendly.

Keep the suggestions coming! I'll keep looking on here and up date you once I've adopted her.
