We are about to adopt two beautiful grey tabby sisters from a local rescue. What should we call them??

DD wants to name them Elphie and Glinda (from Wicked) but DS and DH aren't keen!

So hit me with your name suggestions for a pair of female cats please 🙂

Surely it’s got to be Janet and Rita!

Or you could take a leaf out of Susan Calman’s book and name them after strong women (real and from tv/books).

You mean female kittens.

I have some great name ideas but as I can't see a photo so .....

neverbeenskiing · 05/12/2024 18:22

Here they are!

Some great suggestions so far, thank you. DH likes Janet and Rita, DS likes maple and bacon. DD is still firmly team Wicked but also quite likes Betty and Ines (I do too!). I also quite like Holly and Ivy, but I don't know if it's the 'one'.

A lady I look after at work calls her boobs Lottie and Tottie.

I love matchy names. All of my many cats have flower names. The two youngest are Magnolia (girl) and Oleander (boy).

Don’t name them until you have had them for at least a few days, and you have discovered their characters. See TSEliot for further illumination.

until then you can call them One and Two.

Great advice - I named mine before I collected them only to discover Jasper should have been 'getinthekitchentobesick' and Perkin should have been called 'owwowwgetoffyoulittlebuggerstoprunningupmyback'

I'm on team DD, great names.

@Fabulouslyunfabulous yeah!
