Halloween Name for Kitten

A kitten came to us yesterday. She is a siamese girl, and we are trying to think of a cute halloweenish or fallish name for her. I would prefer the name to end in "y" or "ie" as our other pets are Monkey, Lucky, Trixie and Winn Dixie. Any suggestions?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

You ladies came up with more ideas that I would have ever thought of, THANK YOU!! We held a family conference, the votes are in, and the winner is . . . . Bookitty!

Here is how we came to have her: We live in the country, and Wednesday when I stopped to get the mail (our mailbox is down the hill and across the road from our house) I could hear a kitten crying with all its might in the pasture. That poor little thing was crying so loud, as if to say "This lady will not get the mail without rescuing me!" So loud. I figured it was a wild kitten caught in some brush somewhere, so I brought the kids up to the house then went back down to see if I could figure out how to help it. I started talking to it as soon as I got down there, trying to calm the little thing. I still couldn't see it, but just as I was contemplating climbing a barb wire fence, here she came.

Much to my chagrin, it was not wild. It ran right up to, onto my leg, and started purring like crazy. What could I do but bring it home? It followed me back up the road, meowing the whole time, lol. Definitely a domestic kitten use to being around people and children, probably dumped out in the country by someone who didn't want it any longer. I didn't believe that people actually did that until I moved to the country, and unfortunately they really do.

We don't need another cat, but after our oldest said "But mom, I have never seen a real live kitten, only in pictures! We have to keep it!" What could we do? I took the little thing to the vet, secretly hoping he might find some reason we shouldn't keep her. But alas, she is healthy, and now we have yet ANOTHER member of our pet family. That brings us to 3 cats - - Monkey, Lucky, Bookitty and 2 dogs - - Trixie and Winn Dixie. That is in addition to our two boys who are 5 and 7, and a 3 year old girl!

In the kittens defense, she is very, very cute, and very, very good. She is partly siamese, those really blue eyes and all. About 8 weeks old.

Thanks again for helping us name her!

A couple that came to mind are Pixie and Kandy. Although these don't end in "y" or "ie," Boo and Pumpkin would be pretty cute too! Good Luck!

One of my favorite books when I was in Elementary school was "The Littlest Witch". In that book, the cat's name was Itchabody. I always thought that was a cute "Halloween" name for a cat. :-)

Congrats on your new addition! I am so happy you guys decided to keep her. I used to work for the Humane Society and so many people brought animals in every day and it's just very sad. Anyway, some of the names I thought of are Spooky, Eerie, Witchy, Calamity, Tricky, Ghosty, Chilly, Hermione (my daughter's suggestion), Trisky (short for Triskaidekaphobia, which is a fear of the number 13) and my personal favorite although it's doesn't end the way you want is Salem. I think it's the coolest name for a cat. Be sure to let us know what you choose!! Happy Halloween!

Well the first thing that came to mind was Pixie, since she picked you and you want it to end in IE. It is a bit of a play on words but fits the situation.

When I was a teen, we had a siamese we wanted to call "Fiesty." We asked my dad what he thought (while he was half-asleep) and he said, "Ice Tea, yeah, I like it." So we named her "Icedtea."

Enjoy your animals!!

I had wondered if you looked for its real owner, or asked at the nearest Vet. to see if it was known, before you allowed the children to bond with it. Now I have read the whole story, and you're so right, people think animals are disposable and do Dump them when no longer wanted. I'm so happy to hear how you handled this, and now congratulation on your new little BooKitty. I rescued the pets I own, from abusive homes,and they make wonderful pets, and grateful for a loving, clean home. Hats off to you,V.,more people should care.

For fall, I like Autumn (I am not a Halloween person, so wouldn't want a scary sort of name) - although that's likely best if she's a chocolate or seal point (which I know can be difficult to tell in a siamese kitten). And to get your ending, call her "Auttie" for short.
