Chaos is cool, too, but I agree, Trouble and Scorn are my favorites too.

Had anyone read The Enchanted Forest Chronicles? The witch Morwen had some great names for her cats!

Are you sure you're done with your paper, EG?

I think it's still in your system...

I wasn't writing about that--I just like Shakespeare!

I could continue that for a while. . .more good cat names from Shakespeare (i think): Titania, Oberon, Puck. . .

Starr Polish · 05-30-2002, 09:27 AM

Orlando! He's from Shakespeare...no, really!

Orca...I think that'd be a neat name for a cat...don't ask me why.

I remember having two cats named Eno and Audio once. Eno for Brian Eno who was in Roxy music at the time, and Audio just because. It was fun to call them!

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-30-2002, 11:22 PM

How about Ernie and Bert...you know, the guys in Sesame Street

Mirahzi · 05-31-2002, 01:04 AM

Perhaps not a good idea if they're true to their namesakes.. Ernie would be makin messes all over the place

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-31-2002, 01:14 AM

Then one would hope he would not be true to his namesake, eh?

Mirahzi · 05-31-2002, 01:16 AM

I would hope not

If you need a Sesame Street name.. Elmo's kinda feline.. or Cookie Monster

Eruviel Greenleaf · 05-31-2002, 09:44 AM

Elmo! or Big Bird. . .heh

Andúril · 05-31-2002, 09:50 AM

Hahahaha *points at previous names*

Ha ha those are funny!

But no, seriously.

How about Woof? Or Fido? Or Rover? Or Benji? Or Spot? Or Moppit?

I was so close to calling Woof "Beast", or "Behemoth". Luckily I didn't.

PS. yes, I know, it's a cat. Fido goes well with cats.

That's purrfect! (bad pun, sorry.

)

I was recently Mercutio in English class.

Merc. : Tybalt you rat catcher, will you walk?

Tyb. : What wouldst thou have with me?

Mec. : Good king of cats, naught but one of your nine lives, wich I mean to make bold withall and as you shall use me hereafter, dry beat the rest of the eight....

(Those are actual lines from R&J, if you didn't know, Mercutio is playing on Tybalt's last name: Cat(p)-ulet)

Tar-Elendil · 06-01-2002, 04:43 PM

i should read that play again..i really enjoyed it
i recently watched the romeo and juliet move with that leo dicaprio dude..set in modern times but has same dialogue..it wasnt very good :P

Eruviel Greenleaf · 06-01-2002, 08:55 PM

No, the one with Leo is terrible

Tanoliel was just in a production of R&J. The fight scenes were great

Ehh . . . too common and plain. I like interesting names that normal people would look at or hear and say . . . well, they wouldn't say anything - they would just scrunch up their face in a really funny way and shake their heads.

Tar-Elendil · 06-01-2002, 09:08 PM

ok then.
how about Grishnákh or Shagrat

BeardofPants · 06-04-2002, 06:33 PM

*Evil look*

Cat Scratch Fever.

Eruviel Greenleaf · 06-05-2002, 01:05 AM

Hermione. Not from Harry Potter...just thought it would be a good name for a cat. Say it's from Helen of Sparta's daughter, if you will

I was Mercutio when we read it in English too. Cool.

Name your cat Kashka. That's Russian for cat. I got the idea from Menelvagor's signature. Sounds like an interesting name.
