Our two cats, [name]Izzy[/name] and Momo (short for [name]Isabella[/name] and Mohandas), got a big sister last weekend. She is a short haired calico, mostly white on the bottom with big, beautiful patches of orange and gray on top, and bright green eyes. She’s very quiet and very sweet, and loves to be cuddled if you’re anywhere in her vicinity.
So, what would be a good name for this sweet little cat? We toyed around with some ([name]Calliope[/name], nicknames [name]Calli[/name] and Sweetpea, or [name]Regina[/name], nickname [name]Gigi[/name]), but nothing feels quite right. I’d like a longer name with a cute nickname, like the other cats, maybe even a nickname that ends with a vowel sound (an a?) and has two of the same consonants in it.
Personally, I really like [name]Calliope[/name]. I also like [name]Eloise[/name] (two "e"s but no repeated consonant, and nn could be “[name]Ellie[/name]”), [name]Phillipa[/name] (two “p”, two “l”, and it ends in an “a”, and nn “[name]Philly[/name]/Filly” or “[name]Pippa[/name]”), [name]Lilliana[/name] (three “l”, ends in an ‘a’, nn “[name]Lily[/name]” or “[name]Ana[/name]”), [name]Misha[/name] (no nn or maybe “Mitsy”, no repeated consonants, ends in an “a” though - and works for a sweet cuddly girl-cat).
She sounds like such a luv bug. [name]How[/name] about Amorina, Amora or Amoura? nn [name]Amma[/name], [name]Ora[/name], [name]Mora[/name].
No repeating consonants except in the nn [name]Amma[/name] but I think [name]Izzy[/name], Momo and [name]Amma[/name] would be very cute. Plus I always feel like pets are a great place to use amazing names like Amoura that have an obvious literal translation like = love.
We ended up going with [name]Nora[/name] (short for [name]Eleanor[/name], but we don’t really use the full name). [name]Izzy[/name], Momo, and [name]Nora[/name].
[name]How[/name] about [name]Peony[/name]? They are my favorite flowers- so soft and pretty. I would never use the name on a real kid, but on a cat I would!
