So....the story is I may be getting a Kitten from a family member (I still need to A-OK from my parents and my Dad hates pets so it will be a battleground lololol)

 

I've heard that potentially it is likely that he will be a male kitten since i've heard that Male cats tend to be more affectionate with their owners than female cats (which may tend to be more independent/moody/aloof).

I was wondering what name I could give mine? What did you name your pets and why?

 

Some potential names I had in mind are:

• Makoto: Unisex name for both male and females; Makoto was the name of the main character in 'the girl who leapt through time', Makoto was the name of my favourite character from FREE!; and there was a character named Makoto in the TV japanese drama/toku show 'Kamen Rider Ghost'. Plus 'mako-chan' sounds cool too.
• Takumi: I dunno, I just thought calling my kitten 'Taku-chan' would be heaps cute
• Yuusuke/Yuuto/Yuuta/'Yuu': Same reason why I chose Takumi. 'Yuu-chan' sounds cute too
• Kyou: Named after Sohma Kyou from Fruits Basket....although I really hope he doesn't end up growing up to be an aloof and violent cat
• Wataru: Named after the amazing Violinist and half-fangire from Kamen Rider KIVA
• Other names/lower priority: Ryoutaro (Den-O), Shoutaro (W), Eiji (OOO), Ankh (OOO), Kenzaki (Blade), Souta (Kabuto), Haruto (Wizard), Kouta (Gaim), Kaito (Gaim), Peko (Gaim), Tomari (Drive, will be shortened to Tom), Takeru (Ghost), Haru, Gareki, Nai, Yogi, Karoku, Ichigo (c'mon Strawberry cats!), Kou/Kouga, Taiga (Kiva), Emiya (Unlimited cat works bwahahaha...nah), Shino (Hakkenden), Takara (treasure)
• KH names: Roxas, Ven, Sora, Ephemera

 

And yeah...giving another living being a name is very hard...because its a name they'll have to stick to for the rest of their life. I want to give him the perfect name

 

The name I'm looking for Is I want it to be simple but also meaningful and not over the top. (i.e. calling a Cat Xehanort, Ganondorf or Skitty/Delcatty is not what I'm aiming for). He'll be an indoor cat and I've heard his breed is very placid and sociable so I was hoping for a name that defines a gentle and genial existence. I've heard his fur is likely to be creme with dazzling blue eyes.

 

I VOTE FOR YUUTO

 

Peace!

Well, If it's a male cat, maybe try calling it... Midnight? 

Midnight would be appropriate if it's black with yellow eyes! 

Or! 

Maybe by how the kitten looks like and what your brain and guts tell you what would be a name for your pet kitten. If anything, I am pretty sure it'll love it as long as you take good care of it!

I VOTE FOR YUUTO

 

Peace!

 

Is it because of this guy?

 

 

Quoted from Wikipedia:

 

"Yuto is one of the characters in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime. He is the Xyz Dimensional counterpart to Yuya Sakaki (Standard Dimension), Yugo (Synchro Dimension), and Yuri (Fusion Dimension)."

 

I thought he was the YuGiOh counterpart of Bleach's "Hitsugaya Toshiro" for a moment

You caught me red-handed. My Xyz counterpart would make a good name for your cat.

 

Peace!

I like Takumi, but only because Taku-chan sounds amazing. *cough cough* my username is a mixture of Takuku and Zumoritoarimoto *cough cough*

Sakamoto. In reference to the cat in Nichijou

Roxas, or Jiji. 

Or Takumi. 

 

Male kittens also tend to litter box all over, so be careful on that, and get him fixed fairly young, or he'll spray on any surface he see's fit. He'll also go prowling if unfixed, and might get hit by a car (Or make a female pregnant, and drag the kittens home with him). Trust me, i've had them before.

Hey Jack! Kyaa I'm so excited!

 

From what I've heard, both the parents of said kitten maintain a clean personality/environment. I've been told that their earlier litter of kittens thus far have also maintained that cleanliness too. So I'm hoping my kitten will know where to litter.

 

I've been also told that he will be most likely a strictly indoor cat and is unlikely to go outdoors unless I'm with him. So hopefully I won't have issues with him cheating on me lmfao jkz jkz. But yeah, I'm worried about the spraying too....I might have to fix him after he matures to save my furniture lol.

They spray whether you like it or not, sadly. My cat sprayed after we got him fixed, but I used water on him when he did it. 

Females are usually easier to litter train, but CAN be aloof and kinda had a "F-you" attitude.

What about females in heat O_O

I hear they can be a nightmare

Oh my god, god... 

They dont...uhhhmmmmmm.... have problems with hygeine, like dogs do, but they yowl, and scratch, and try to escape. 

It's best to get them fixed as young as possible.

Okay, thank you for the Advice!

And it sounds like Takumi is name with most votes so far lol

 

Why did you choose Takumi?

Jiji is from Kiki's delivery service right? And Roxas from KH.

Cause Takumi sounds cute.

Yeah, it is. If I ever get another black cat, I'm naming him that. Too bad I didn't see the movie before we adopted Jackson.

Roxas might not work, come to think of it...it sounds more like a name for a dog.

Oh yeah! Jackson your cat is black lololol, Jiji would've been a 'purr'fect name

Nah, I'm less inclined to name him Roxas only because when I say 'I'm cuddling with Roxas', it will sound strange lmfao. I would call him Roxas if his fur was Black and White or gold/white. And you are right, Roxas sounds more like a Dog's name (golden retriever?).

 

Mmm! I might wait for more replies and see if Takumi will be the right name.

 

He'll look like this

except his fur is expected to become mostly creme as he grows older and I've heard some parts of his fur may turn black/brown. The eyes are blue.

 

Speaking of female cats. After you fix them, though she doesn't go in heat anymore - will she still exhibit behaviour of escape? Does fixing female cats change their temperament too?

Awwwww...Takumi is perfect for a cat like that.

 

honestly? They get fat as all hell, lazy as all hell, and do nothing but eat and sleep. Fixing them calms them down into fat lumps. 

Aw yis, kitty!! Congrats on your cat-to-be! 8D

 

I actually just adopted two cats from a shelter:

 

 

 

The tabby is a girl, and her shelter name was Rose but I changed it to Rosa. The white one is a boy, and since he's (coincidentally) all white with a patch of yellow on his head, I decided to name him Cecil. (A double Final Fantasy IV reference, in case anyone's unfamiliar with it.)

 

From my experience, I actually found that male cats are a lot more aloof while females are more cuddly and affectionate, but it could depend on the breed. I've only owned domestic shorthairs, so I can't speak for others.

 

As for a name, I think all the ones you mentioned are great! I might lean towards Makoto, though, it's pretty! But if he does come out with pretty blue eyes, Sora seems fitting, too.

Omg awwwwwwwwwwwwww

totally name him Ventus! His personality completely fits him.

There's also Adrien (Character from Miraculous Ladybug who is a Neko basically but he's a black cat though)

Considering his potential appearance, you could also name him Isa. Isa is pretty cool and kind, so he could fit. Maybe even Riku too!

Actually, Isa would be​ an adorable name~!

Name it catmaster no.2 or Homura from Atelier Shallie  :biggrin: . On a serious note , Takumi sound like a nice name .

Ansem, Seeker of Darkness.

I have always absolutely loved  the name Ven. Like, it's irrational how much I love that name. It would be a blessing to that cat if it received the name.

 

I mean, honestly. You could even always imagine the cat looking like this.

 

Gary! Call him Gary!!!

I like Ephemera as a name, but maybe it's too complicated for a cat. What about Ephy or something like that?

Ya know, you should just call him Cat. Or Cate.

Aw yis, kitty!! Congrats on your cat-to-be! 8D

Omg! Cuuuuute! Complete with outfit and Keyblade!

You've given me an idea to dress him up lol

Maybe ~ Ephemera's creme hair and blue eyes does fit the little kitty

 

Gary! Call him Gary!!!

 

Sponge bob?

Everytime I think of Gary from Spongebob, I recall that race he had with Patrick's rock...and Patrick's rock won lmfao

Takumi seems super adorable.
