I'm partial to the classic names...Sparky, Fluffy, Spike, Fido and Spot
for example. But we've had odd ones too, Moose, Nemo (I&II), Ace
(I&II), Spyder, Allie, Gato, Burt, Monday and Frog. And of course we
haven't paid much attention to popular opinion about what is
appropriate for any particular species. If White Kitty works, and you
are happy with it, and the kitty occassionally responds to it...meets
all the criteria I can think of. But, if you are still searching, how
about something biblical...who's the dude we leave the extra table
setting for? Ezekial? What's the femenine form?
EZka...EZcat...EZscat! I bet you'll be saying that lot before long!
Or go for the ironic... Butch...Snag...Brutus...Jezebell! Ohhh, I like
that one!
