My folks cats are Boniface, Zophar, and Gertrude.
My siblings cats are Old Nick, Kumquat, Zuul, ChiChi, Katz, and Selot (a Star Trek reference). I went with dogs.

My cat's name is Lydia. Named so because of how much I *love* the name and just had to use it. Her nicknames, related to her name that is, are Lydie and from my young nieces, Lydia Kittia. 😊
Here she is in fact:
I'm hoping to be able to adopt another cat within the near future. (🙏🙏🙏) and the names that I plan to use would either be Josephine "Josie" (another stunning name that goes well with Lydia) or for a male, most likely Stanley. (So adorable!)
I love human names for pets (just what I'd use myself) but off-beat and whimsical names are fun too.
My previous cat before her was Diamond. (2002-2018) I named her back when I was a kid, so had I had her much later, her name undoubtedly would have been something else entirely. Her name didn't exactly suit her, especially thinking back on it now, but was one that just stuck.
And before Diamond, there was snowball. No picture, but can you guess what color he/she was? 😄

Thanks! 😊
Aww Lydia is so pretty! Lydia & Josephine would be great cat ‘sister’ names :D
She really is, isn't she? 😊 I *love* the set of Lydia & Josephine and the prospect of using the diminutives of Lydie & Josie completely sells me.
Although I've always heard that getting another female with an already existing one usually isn't the best idea. Not sure I will have any problems with Lydia, given her personality and temperament, but I will certainly have to wait and see. Male or female, it would certainly be nice to give Lydia a potential playmate and companionship.

When I name a cat sometimes the name just comes to me, as if he/she came with that name, sometimes it’s based off their personality, other times it’s just a name I liked.
My cats name is Lady Augusta Marie aka Gus-Gus, Gussie :)
Cats I named when I was a kid: Butterball, General, Sophie, Nameless (I couldn’t think of a good name for him so I just gave up :D), Leftover (he was the only survivor of a dog attack…).
Augusta is a farm cat & she’s had a few litters over the years, here are a few…
•Wilfred & Wolfgang (tabby bros), Plum & Peaches
•Benjamin & Jemima (grey ‘twins’), Thumbelina ‘Thimble’, Cricket & Grasshopper.
•Avonlea, Patsy, Louisa May & Lucy Maud (b&w ‘twins’, named after Alcott & Montgomery), Gilmore, Gustave & Ignatius ‘Iggy’ (all orange bros).
I also had Willamina nn Wilma who had 1 litter: Guinevere & Melusine (calicos), Kentigern (all black) & Sinclair (b&w).

I met two cats named Butterball and Snowball when I was at school. Friends of my parents owned them. This is only the second Butterball cat I know of!
You could go by their color.
Orange - Cheeto, Peaches, Clementine
Black - Coal, Jet, Nox, Nix
White - Pearl, Blanche
Gray - Gris, Yin
Spot, Dottie "Dot", Lacey
Other names - Maybelle "May", Babette "Babs", Bixby "Bix", Furn (Fern has fur)
Or you could do what my friends did - get three pets, Harley, Dave and Ison

Personally, I would either go with something random (speeding ticket, plywood, duct tape, ect.) and then call it by a nickname, or call it something a little too normal (Chad, Robert, Kyle, Norman, Ashley, Herbert, ect.), or something with a cat pun (Calpurnia, Bartholomew, Katerina)
