Hail Cynthetiq!

In these "name my animal threads" I try to speak from the heart. I gazed upon those images of the kitten and Philadelphia Cheesesteak Sandwich leapt to mind. It would be egocentric of me to think that everyone would enjoy the word “hamburger” as much as me. That being said, Tiny Hamburger would also be an excellent moniker.

Giant Hamburger's idea gave me one...

How about Baby Burger (The A&W Fast food restaurant's kiddy burger) and then he can become Teen burger and Poppa burger as he gets older...

Hail Sweet Lady!

I like the way your brain works. You may now consider me a loyal admirer. If you were just a disembodied brain I would take you out in a jar for long boat rides and baseball games. We could sing songs and I would eat a hamburger for both of us since you would be without gastronomic abilities.

*looks around*

Perhaps I have said too much.

The Naming of Cats

by T.S. Eliot

The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
First of all, there's the name that the family use daily,
Such as Peter, Augustus, Alonzo or James,
Such as Victor or Jonathan, George or Bill Bailey --
All of them sensible everyday names.
There are fancier names if you think they sound sweeter,
Some for the gentlemen, some for the dames:
Such as Plato, Admetus, Electra, Demeter --
But all of them sensuble everyday names
But I tell you, a cat needs a name that's particular,
A name that's peculiar, and more dignified,
Else how can he keep up his tail perpendicular,
Or spread out his whiskers, or cherish his pride?
Of names of this kind, I can give you a quorum,
Such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat,
Such as Bombalurina, or else Jellylorum --
Names that never belong to more than one cat.
But above and beyond there's still one name left over,
And that is the name that you never will guess;
The name that no human research can discover --
But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess.
When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular Name.

© 1939 by T.S.Eliot
© 1967 by Esme Valerie Eliot

Just something to think about. There are tons of great cat names in Eliot's "Old Pssum's Book of Practical Cats".

Beautiful poem, and it fits well.

Stiltzkin · 09-23-2003, 04:44 PM

I've said it before, I'll say it again: Butch.
It is the universal pet name for all pets of any gender.

bundy · 09-23-2003, 06:08 PM

i think, that since StormBerlin posted that wonderful poem, you should name it, Eliot

after all, its a bit more appropriate than Horse.

My friend just named his kitten TROGDOR!
He wanted to name it Mothra, but his gf liked TROGDOR more!

Maybe you can pay tribute and call that lil' guy Mothra.

quadro2000 · 09-26-2003, 06:18 PM

I personally love all these names, but they're not goin' over so well with the woman...

We've been calling him Linus lately as Loki didn't fit. I am STILL trying to convince her to let me call him Shizzlew00t but I'm getting nowhere.

Eliot is a good possibility. As is TROGDOR, although I'm more inclined to call him Homsar.

Fremen · 09-26-2003, 06:49 PM

Homer J. Simpson "insert surname here"
This name just reeks of class.

Hash_Browns · 09-27-2003, 05:41 PM

Levon Canabis Satebah - My Mom's buddy's sister's cousins uncle who knew this one guy that worked at a store near his job, knew a guy who's sister's friends' daughter named her little Kitty that name right there!

When she told me that I fell in love and thought it was thee most awsomist...don't ask why..it just caught my attention..

I just called my Mom just to make sure I got it right...so there you go

tehblaed · 09-27-2003, 08:55 PM

I hate it when people make up fucking cutesy wootsy little names for their pets. Name it Steve, damnit.

G0dd3ss · 09-27-2003, 09:14 PM

I think you should name him for what he really is...Little Shit Machine.

...or Ahdiesas (Esas for short). For All he does is eat, sleep and shit.

I love kittens.

Ours are named Venus and Lain.

lurkette · 09-28-2003, 04:36 AM

So...what'd you name it? Or are you still looking?

We tried a bunch of these names but nothing has seemed to fit yet! As I mentioned above, I thought we had settled on Linus but it didn't seem to work. A friend firmly believes that all pets should be named after other animals, so she suggested we name him Froggy. Or maybe Kermit, as an offshoot of that. Damn, I hope I never have kids. They'd go years without names.

Steve! Yes, I agree. That is a good name.

galaxygirl · 09-28-2003, 08:05 PM

He looks like the twin of our kitten. My six year old named him Lightning.

Seems like you guys are leaning towards L names. How about Luka?

Miekle · 09-29-2003, 07:42 PM

What about Liono like in the Thundercats hehe its STRONG yet *cute* ehheh if ya haven't seen thunder cats... its purnounced LION and then a strong O heh I'm pretty sure I spelled it right but not positive

quadro2000 · 09-30-2003, 05:38 AM

Luka...hmmm...not really my thing, I don't think. But thanks!

Today I'm going to try calling him Elvis. 'Cause you know, he's the king of the apartment. Plus, it's really fun to think about him wearing the white jumpsuit with rhinestones.

Cynthetiq · 09-30-2003, 06:12 AM

you just want him to look like Stitch
