ideas for really unusual names

[jenny]

as you know im picking up my new bengal kitten in the middle of february,so want to start thinking of names so that the breeder can get him used to it.

i like really unusual names. i mean, my staffie is called indie and we had a rottie last year called phoenix. oh and the siamese last april called Tao.

So any unusual suggestions would be appreciated :)

the only names on our list at the mo are Aslan and Houdini.

I allways said if i ever got the siamese/oriental tom it would be called Phairos (can be spelt differently), pronounced Fair-rosse.

Yeti (he is snow spotted after all)

Thats good Luke, will have a think Jen, does a name not jump out at you when you look at him???

[Kazz]

Yeti (he is snow spotted after all)

Thats excellent, :-D like both those suggestions.

What was the name of the black panther in jungle book Bagerra

[jenny]

well even tho he is 2 hrs away, i may just go and see him before i pick him up, it might give me a feel for his character and a subsequent name :)

still, need some really inspiring ideas for very unusual names....

keep up with the suggestions they're great :D

[Kazz]

Right off to have another look at his picture will be back.

Okay how about Aztec, or Caspar?

[tilly]

If I get another cat I am probably going to call it Guess and if there are two the other may be called What . So that when people ask what they are called i can say Guess What. But it might just be my sense of humour.

the only names on our list at the mo are Aslan and Houdini.Well, because of the Indian connection, I can think of a few place names that might fit: Patna, Poona,
Agra, Delhi, or Sherpa., which of course isn't a place name, but might fit if the kit turns out to be a climber! When I was waiting for my Singapura kitten I pored over the atlas trying to find a Malay or Chinese name for him; couldn't find anything that suited me, and one day it occurred to me that he was born in Massachussetts ...a regular Yankee doodle dandy...hence ended up being Dandy! Good luck with the name choice; let us know what you decide!

I watched Eragon the other day and the dragon was called Saphira. Its quite an unusual name & I like it! :)

[teenytiny]

I like that Saphira, yes I like that :D

How about KAI if he's a boy :)

[Kazz]

Any thoughts yet Jen?

[EmmaG]

how about Buzz for a boy ;)

[dinahsmum]

"I love you" in Bengali is, apparently, ek het jou lief.
Can you make anything of that?
Other than that I like Dms Indian connection names. Poona is good.

One of my cats is called Kuta, which is a place in Bali as she is a Balinese mix.

Another is called Indah, which means "handsome" in Indonesian, as I'd just been on holiday there.

If you look on Google or another search engine you may be able to find a dictionary to convert from English to Bengali and see what "handsome" is in their language.

my OH decided he likes Simba :shock:
i'll put it on the list somewhere while i think of more names, lol
