Well I guess if we're just throwing out cat names we've used
Boy: Rocky, Guardian, Scout, Peewee, Houdini, Big Boy
Girl: Socks, Magellan, Diva, Leia, Izzie, Ozzie, Fireball, Ditto, Belle, Oreo
Names of my kitties over more than two decades:
Girls: Nova, Athena
Boys: Casper (black), Cocoa (white with blue eyes), Marconi
All kitties have dignified names.
My 2 boy cats:
- Named after a character in LotR
- Named after a kind of cheese
Mexican Pizza left a poop on your bed
Black male cat: Lucifer
Which is kind of funny, you'd think a white cat would better fit "light bringer"
It's post downfall

My friend has a cat named Apollo and the man lives up to his name
He takes Americans to the moon?
a god of archery, music and dance, truth and prophecy, healing and diseases, the Sun and light, poetry, and more
He gets people very far from wapakonetta
I once met a boy cat named Vendetta.
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
Chalupa Batman and Osiris.
lol.
All of my cats were named after Star Wars characters. No one, regardless of assigned gender, needs to be named “ Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Tacos.”
Luna - male
Eclipse - female
Madame (formally Freya) - female
Bat - female
Ding - male
Rainbow bridge: Gaia - female, Apollo - female
Bat and Ding had those names at the shelter and we didn't see a reason to change them. Luna ... We were told he was a she as a kitten, and after a week of proper nutrition we saw the boy bits and just kept the name. Apollo was purposely named that way because we already had one swap and then we'd have the sun and moon.
If bat and ding are patterned/spotted. Then the dingbat joke kind of fits. (Dingbat characters are characters used in printing, that instead of being letters are ornamental pictograms, which from a far look like ink spots most of the time. i swear i remember there being long, whispy characters made as edge fillers, but i can't find them anywhere.)
Girl cats: Himalaya, Sable, Shasta, Ka'ala, Pixel, Dingdong, Biscuits&Gravy, Wanda, Palomar (minsser)
Boy Cats: Mao, Theobroma (theo), Mr. 305, Buster, Britches, Cowcat, Tomlinson, Noodle, Handsome, Millie
One of my girl cats was literally named Girl Cat.
I just kept the names from the shelter, in case the cats were used to them already.
Counter argument: Potato and Spacy
Damnit it's true. My female cat's name is Aurora (Bora Alice) and my last male was simply named Siatie (c a t)
