Help me name my beautiful new kitten

[WinkOnlyCellophane]

Picking up this little Bengal cross next weekend all being well! She’s five months old, beautiful, fur like silk, very happy with people, playful but chilled.

DH and I love music, puns, history. DS is one so likes most things especially cats and dogs!

Ps she doesn’t normally wear the collar. The owners put them on for the pictures so as to show who the boys and girls were.

Clawdia
Or Cleo was the first name that came to
Mind.

Yes Cleo came to mind too! She has dramatic eye liner

We had a beautiful Cleo (chocolate tabbie point Siamese) so I think that's a wonderful name - but I'm probably biased

Tosca , Electra or Norma from the operas?

Tabbigail
Known as Tabby

Another vote for Cleo (short for Cleocatra). Beautiful!

Silkie.

Wow she’s stunning!
Cleo is a good choice I also think she’d suit Zeta

Poseidon (I know that's technically a male god but she has the colouring of a stormy sea!) or Persephone (Sef) for short

Lady
Smudge
Velma

Oh I love the recommendations so far! Please do keep them coming :)

She has very pronounced rosettes by the way - not just the stripes on legs and tail etc, back and belly are rosetted.

Purrdita…

Claudette/Clawdette

Theda.

Betty.

I'm going old school punk - Bengals like a bit of chaos

Siouxie (and the Banshees)
Poly Styrene
Joan Jett
Viv Albertine

Rosetta, then?

Or Gloria.

I was going to suggest Silkie.

Loving Norma too.

How about India?

Bruenhilda (hilda or hilly)
KateCat (three of Henry's wives and also Henry Hotspur, notwithstanding Medici)
Carmen
Rosamund
Isolde (Izzie)

Any excuse to post a picture of mine. She was a stray so I have no idea what she is but I suspect there is some Bengal in there.

Mine started life as 'mystery cat' which evolved into Misty

I like the Rosette suggestion or a Rosie.

Was going to say Rosita but live the idea if Rosetta!

Cleo for sure. She looks royal!

Savannah
Dotted minim- Minnie for short 😉
Henrietta

I was thinking maybe she should have a Bengali name, and then I remembered the Bengali for water is Fanny, I think that would suit her.

I used to work with a Nargis, which is a Nasturtium and the name of an Indian dish that is like a scotch egg and that made me think of bhaji.

So, after all that, I think she would be a fine Bhaji.
