1431.0. "I'M GETTING A NEW KITTY!!!!" by 58205::HTAYLOR (Have you hugged your kitty today?) Mon Jun 06 1988 14:58

    Well, this weekend, my mother finally gave in to her own feelings
    and we are getting a Female Persian kitten.  She is what they call
    a Shaded Golden Persian.  We will be picking her up on sunday.
    
    Now our only problem is a name for this beautiful little warm fuzzy.
    the cattery name is "Suttonian's"  So it has to be "Suttonian's"
    something.  Here are the names we have picked out so far.  Let me
    know what you think and if you think of any more.
    
    Suttonian's twenty four Karat Gold.  (Called Goldie)
    
    Suttonian's Michaela (pronounced just like it is spelled except
    that tha the "ch" sounds like a "k".  We would call her "Micki")
    
    Or Suttonian's Starfire (called Star)
    
    So, what do you think?  Got any more names?
    
    Holly, Tabbatha, Silver, and the Persian

    How about Suttonian's Sunshine (Sunni for short) to describe the
    little ray of sunshine that's come into your life??

    I like the sound of the twenty four carat gold one...sounds very
    important - also Goldie will suit the colouring
    
    Apart from that I am terrible at thinking of new names...sorry

1431.4Starfire versus StarfyreAIMHI::OFFENMon Jun 06 1988 16:379
    Of course I'm partial to Starfire because we already have a StarFYRE
    in the house.  Congratulations on the new Baby.

    P.S.  How's Cleocatra doing????
    
    
    
1431.5I'm Jealous!!!FSHQOA::RWAXMANMon Jun 06 1988 19:2513
    I wish I could have another kitty.  After getting a look at all
    the Ragdolls and Birmans at the Springfield cat show, I wanted one
    of each!  Of course when I brought this up to Dana, he said "if
    I let you have 3 cats, you'll want 7 more; two is enough."
    
    I like the Michaelana (sp?) best.  A Persian should have a Regal
    sounding name; after all, they are very beautiful cats!
    
    Congratulations, Holly!  It was nice meeting you on Saturday.

    My vote for Star.  Of course when you get her home you may find
    her character prompts you to call her something else:-)
    
    Have fun

1431.7Whimsy & topical all at onceCIVIC::JOHNSTONI _earned_ that touch of grey!Tue Jun 07 1988 12:1011
    Noor, for Queen Noor al Hussain of Jordan [OK, so I'm a fan...and
    the kitty's a Persian, not a Jordanian...]
    
    Noor, I believe, means 'light' hence the reason the queen chose
    it upon changing her name.  Also, the woman has shaded golden hair
    her ownself.
    
    Suttonian's Noor doesn't scan, but Noor al Suttonian would do alright
    if that's allowable.  'Light of Suttonian'

1431.8here's some more58205::HTAYLORHave you hugged your kitty today?Tue Jun 07 1988 14:4415
    Ok, we have decided against Starfire (no offense Sandi).  Mom really
    doesn't like twenty four Karat gold (Don't ask me why).  both of
    us still like Michaela.  Sunshine is too common (sorry).  Here are
    a few others my mom suggested.
    
    Suttonian's Peanut butter cup. (called peanut)
    
    Suttonian's Lady Sarah. (called Sarah)
    
    The reason she liked Peanutbutter cup is because the cat is brown
    and black.  I kind of liked that, but can you imagine a year from
    now calling the largest cat we have "Peanut"?

1431.9Congrats!AQUA::GOLDMANMatt GoldmanTue Jun 07 1988 16:4012
This isn't a name choice but ...

Congrats on the new kitty.  You couldn't have picked a better cattery!  ;^)

Also, congrats on your acceptance into Central Mass Feline Fanciers.  Have you 
heard from Mass Colony Cat Club yet?

Re: Naming convention

The cattery name of the breeder precedes the given name.  The cattery name, if 
one, of the owner/buyer follows the given name.

    Congrats on your new kitty, Holly!  I, too, agree on the choice
    of cattery.  Congrats also on your wins over the weekend.
