Neko, Petra, or Nico?

These are the three finalists for naming my cat.

Which would be best, just based on how cool the artist is?

Nico
Petra (Haden)
or Neko (Case)?

Nico

Neko

Based on recent output I would go with Neko (Case). It also might be the safest choice for your cat seeing as Petra was hit by a car and Nico died after a bicycle accident.

Nena

harpo.
cats can't talk.

morrissey

my cats no whiney irishman!

and there are three choices here people, come on!

petra then. it sounds corporate when addressing a cat.

Nico. particularly if your cat is leggy and pale.

Neko

Petra...definitely Petra

Call it Double Dragon Jones

Nico

You need to tell us something about the cat's personality:

Q: Is she confrontational, with an exhibitionist streak?
A: Neko.

Q: Is she oddly soulful, but incredibly self-centered, uncommunicative, and needy?
A: Nico.

Q: Did she have a really cool dad?
A: Petra.

i'm just blown away that petra haden is anybody's list. petra. petra.

the number one choice for me right now is petra, actually. the fellow and i are off to meet the kittys (petra/nico/neko whatever and her brother) in a few minuites, all i know if shes a little black cat, and apparently friendly and exceptionally smart.

Margot, you must name your cat this.

fuck it, i'm adopting a kid and naming him Double Dragon Jones.

batman spaghetti.

actually, that is MY name and if you take it I will cry.


I originally tried to name my kitty Nico or perhaps Neko, but was told it was an "obnoxious hipster name" to name your cat. 3 guesses as to who told me that.

you should name the boy cat Arthur. or Sport. Here are my unsolicited ideas for girl names;

Harriet

Puddles

Noodles

Tapeworm Mc Fleaerson O'Gooeyeye. Oh wait, that is my cat's name.

OH SNAP! Or, Eater Jr. There is a very specific way you must say this name, which I will tell you the next time I talk to you.

whats creepy is that i was pulling for the name arthur originally but we have thought of bettter ones since.

right now it's between Petra and *Tango.





*it has been decided that the boy cat will be Churchill, since he is pretty stoic and clever and looks like he is weaing a little tux, and Winston Churchill, a notrious cat lover, owned a cat named Tango. The name would be appropriate for the little girl cat who is fiesty, fun, and moves around a lot.

i have no idea why ive decided to post this. ive never been so ghey for cats.

Neko is "cat" in Japanese is it not? And that would be a deterrant, since pretty much everyone that names a cat that thinks they are clever. It doesn't seem so clever however when you realize you just named your cat "cat".

Doesn't Neko mean "cat" in Japanese?

I vote for Enion (Pelta)

I like Tango.

or Peanut.

Don't name your cat after an indie rock superstar, I implore you.
