I have recently gotten a kitten, she's fully black and tiny, the runt of the litter. I want to give her a name from a book, doesn't necessarily have to be an animal in a book.. just a good name for a female kitten. The book doesn't have to be fantasy either. xD

Names I like so far..
Nyx - Greek Goddess of the Night
Ludo - The monster thing from Labyrinth

I like unusual names if you catch my drift.. :)
They could even be names of authors or poets.. I would love to call her Byron but she's a girl so..

I LOVE naming kittens.

Here are my personal top picks for if I got another female cat:

Karma (“Good Karma!” or “Bad Karma!”)
Callisto ("Calli")
Freya
Mithril
Pandora
Shiva
Valhalla (“Val”)
Zelda

I have a one year old cat called Nyx - named for similar reasons as given above.

Be warned - she quickly became Little Nicky, because she's a veritable devil.

Didn't anyone simply suggest Pussy? It's sweet enough for me...ooops, did you say literature? Okay lemme see if I can come up with something old and suitable...Is it a witch's cat? I should consider that as well...

I used to have a dog we named - Holack (Hebrew for black one).

I currently have a cat named Orpheus.

Call her Shelley. Girls name as a standalone but also a poet.

Or Ada, Lord Byron's daughter. A formidable woman in her own right, she effectively wrote the first computer program (an algorithm to calculate Bernoulli numbers) for Charles Babbage's as yet unbuilt mechanical Analytical Engine.

I've only ever named two animals. Both Cats.

1. Ferocious (furry for short)
2. Vicious (vicky for short)

my dad is planning on getting a dog soon and naming it aggressive. aggy for short.

Mine is called Alice even though she is not named after Alice in Wonderland, most people think she is.

For myself, after my girlfriend suggested the name, I immediately thought of: "Who the f* is Alice"

ROFL . How many people remember that?
