Woodland/Outdoors: Bramble, Twig, Sandy, Heath, Russle, Leaf, Beckett, Beacon.

Famous Tragic Literary Figures:
Ophelia, Eurydice, Juliet, Hamlet, Romeo, Leto, Orpheus.

Soo many good ideas here! I’m highlighting the ones that stood out to me most- tragic literary figures names are beautiful and a great concept! Maybe a little heavy for little kittens but hey, they might grow into their names (or get renamed, of course).

[icequeenpurple]

@jalexis15

Strawberry Shortcake, Orange Blossom, Angel Cake, Apple Dumplin, Huckleberry Pie, Lemon Meringue,

Cupcake, Cannoli, Mousse, Meringue, Brownie,

Your list has so many different adorable ideas, I’m losing my mind!

One thing- I’m wondering if you (or anyone) can help me think of logical ways to divide up some of the categories that include lots of great name options! For example, I love the idea of gemstone names, dessert names, and flowers, but it can be really hard to just choose 3-4 names (our typical litter size).

I struggle with feeling like they don’t exactly match in style or meaning, and it just makes me sad to leave great names behind. Any subcategory ideas for gems, desserts, flowers/plants, or location names (by meaning or name style)?

[icequeenpurple]

@jalexis15

Matilda, Eloise, Harold, Harriett, Ramona, George, Alexander, Petunia (childrens books)

Omg, I forgot to mention these names! Squeee! I’m a huge, huge fan of classic children’s lit and have so many names ideas inspired by children’s books, but most of them are inspired by characters from a single book/series. LOVE the idea of doing a litter of all titular characters from different kids’ books.

Are you KIDDING me?? So much to work with here!! I absolutely love these. The cactus names made me gasp out loud and I am so excited to find the perfect kittens to wear them.

[anon25197097]

Haha this is true. But I guess they are only literary

[icequeenpurple]

@chendelight

Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, etc. (NATO phonetic alphabet)

Shea, cocoa, mango, (butters)

Blaze, Flame, Ember, Spark, (fire)

These are great! The butter theme is so creative!

Sooo many great lists here- I especially love the national parks!

@babynamesrus

Nautical Theme : Cove, Sailor, Rowan, River, Skipper, Bowie, Stormy, Matey

This is so creative!

Thanks so much everyone, and feel free to keep them coming!

[jalexis15]

I’ve been thinking about your question and I think I have a way to split up the floral names. You could split them up by color! Of course flowers can come in more than one color, so I just went by popularity of the color and how well the names go together!

[name_u]Red[/name_u] Flowers: [name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Zinnia[/name_f], [name_f]Azalea[/name_f]

[name_u]Orange[/name_u] Flowers: [name_f]Marigold[/name_f], [name_f]Chrysanthemum[/name_f], [name_f]Dahlia[/name_f], [name_f]Tigerlily[/name_f]

Yellow Flowers: Sunflower (Sunny!!), [name_f]Pansy[/name_f], [name_f]Calla[/name_f] [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_f]Daffodil[/name_f], [name_f]Primrose[/name_f]

[name_u]Blue[/name_u] Flowers: Periwinkle, [name_u]Hyacinth[/name_u], [name_f]Bluebell[/name_f], Sweet Pea

Purple Flowers: [name_f]Iris[/name_f], [name_f]Lilac[/name_f], [name_f]Violet[/name_f], [name_f]Petunia[/name_f]

[name_f]Pink[/name_f] Flowers: [name_f]Tulip[/name_f], [name_f]Peony[/name_f], [name_u]Snapdragon[/name_u], [name_f]Cherry[/name_f] [name_f]Blossom[/name_f]

White Flowers: [name_f]Lily[/name_f], [name_f]Magnolia[/name_f], [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Jasmine[/name_f]

[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps!

@ballerina-flo

I was thinking a weather-themed set
Sunbeam
Rainy
Storm
Cloud
Misty

These are sooo cute and I can’t believe I never thought of this idea, given that I’m a huge fan of weather names. I’ve always wanted to have a kitten named Raindrop, and now I have a great set of ideas to go with it.

@bjoy

Lion, ocelot, bobcat, cougar, jaguar, panther, lynx

These are all cute, and the big cats theme is especially adorable! Kittens really do think of themselves as little predators!

Yellow Flowers: Sunflower (Sunny!!), Pansy, Calla Lily, Daffodil, Primrose

Blue Flowers: Periwinkle, Hyacinth, Bluebell, Sweet Pea

Purple Flowers: Iris, Lilac, Violet, Petunia

Pink Flowers: Tulip, Peony, Snapdragon, Cherry Blossom

White Flowers: Lily, Magnolia, Daisy, Jasmine

This is brilliant! The yellow flowers, blue flowers, and purple flowers really stand out to me— those flowers are so distinctive for their colors that I can just see the coordinating colors in my mind’s eye as soon as I hear the names. Super cute.

I was also thinking of Chrysanthemum, Hyacinth, and Amaryllis as a floral set because they’re all very frilly, Latinate names that I’m struggling to fit in with names like Rose, Daisy, etc.

[jalexis15]

I love Chrysanethmum, [name_u]Hyacinth[/name_u] and [name_f]Amaryllis[/name_f] as a floral set! So adorable

San Francisco (California) nn Fran or Fanciso
Kalamazoo (Michigan) nn Kazoo
Cincinnati (Ohio) nn Cincy
Indianapolis (Indiana) Indy

[columbiacharm]

@icequeenpurple

I missed these! I’m so intrigued by New Orleans with Nola as a nickname— I love the idea of using city names that aren’t commonly used as names, with more accessible/“normal” nicknames. Kansas City “KC”/“Kacey” definitely fits well with that theme too. Can anyone think of more cities like that?
