Smart people can be stupid too

Hi everyone! I hope this is ok (coming from a long time lurker with maybe 10 posts to my name) please ignore if not.

I'm trying to choose a name for a (hopefully) soon to be mine cat and thought it might be a particularly Buffista friendly task.

She is a 2 year old medium-haired tortoiseshell (mostly shades of grey) with a sort of... beastly look? My DH and I have been brainstorming (mostly Lovecraftian Erdrich horror type names so far, with a couple of muppet names thrown in for good measure) but we haven't come up with anything yet.

Does anyone want to play Name That Cat?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I would be tempted to go with Beasty or Beastly.

Aw, I like tortoiseshells. The last one I (sort of) had we called Patches after the zombie cat on Buffy.

Nice to see you, Helena

Hi Helena. How about Halfr Graybeard?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Lovecraftian made me think of Koshekh [link] .

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Is this the point where I mention that I warned sarameg not to name her cat Loki?

And I concurred. The words "tempting fate" were almost certainly used.

Awesome suggestions! Khoshekh is an awful lot to live up to (/hopefully not live up to...). It's also a kind of fantastic name though. Most of the names we've been throwing around verge on unpronounceable so these are all definitely a step up from that. We were also looking at Spider-Man villains (since we're hoping she'll enjoy slaying some basement spiders) but nothing jumped out.
