I needed a name to go along with that
for the female I adopted at the same time, and she became Hickory, after

the
hickory nuts we had where I grew up. Hickory... Doc -- of course I

always
got asked where Dickory was!


LOL,

My children (the bald ones not the furry ones) are called Tom and Harry,
several people asked if we were planning to have a 3rd and call it Dick.

My cats a

Murphy - after Murphy's Irish stout as he's all black and DH was drinking
Murphy's when we were choosing a name.

Tabitha - A tabby cat that we got on halloween and is partly named for
Tabitha from bewitched and partly for her "Tabby-fur"

And McGonagall - after the teacher who transforms into a cat in Harry
Potter.

When you said her colors, I immediately thought of Halloween. Is
there a Halloween word that describes her, like pumpkin?
My cat's name is Freddy because he was found in a grocery store by
that name. I like names that fit a cat's look or personality or, in
Fred's case, have a story behind them.

I had a cat named Doc who was named after the little boy in The Shining.

LOL! I'm always fascinated by what people call their pets - you can
tell a lot about someone from their pets' names )

I picked Brio's name by visiting www.thesaurus.com and entering words that
described her character like lively, animated, etc. I'm really happy with
the name I chose... it suits her to a T. Somebody said to me once "it's
short, but it's long... breeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo." 8-)

My two are named Tiger and Amber but if I get another cat, I will use
more imagination. I love music so I would probably choose a name
connected with music. Some possibilities -Allegro, Presto, Rondo,
Tango, Tacet, Viola.
