One of my girl cats was literally named Girl Cat.

The stray calico kitten that hangs out on my porch and in front of my front door I named Princess because she is regal and demanding.

I just kept the names from the shelter, in case the cats were used to them already.

When I was a kid our kitten was a rescue my mother brought home from the place she took horseback riding lessons - the kitten got stuck inside the chip machine's coin box, so it works more whenever you fed the machine coins.

We ended up giving her the oh-so-original name snowball. Then her colors came in and we discovered her to be a calico. Oops. Kitty it is then. RIP kitty.

I named by boy Willow, because he had very long limbs and tail, reminded me of the tree. the petsmart employee thought it was weird tho and only wrote 'Will' down on the form

Will O, the Wisp-y tail

Damnit it's true. My female cat's name is Aurora (Bora Alice) and my last male was simply named Siatie (c a t)

I named my girl Selune... I guess I'm basic D=

I've had cats named Baldr, Hermóðr, Grendel, and Wotan. I've currently got a Valkyrie, Brynhildr, Freyja, and Freya (we got Freya when she was a year old because her owner couldn't keep her, and we already had Frejya, so...). But our current boy cats are Svartur ('cuz he's black), Robert, and Charlie.
