    Name suggestions for the "fuzzball"???

    The Humane Society named this little one "Calico" for now, but she deserves a REAL name, and I need your help with this!

    Here is a picture of her:


    She is approximately 4 weeks old. She is nothing but skin and bones under all that fur, as she is very malnourished and underweight.

    Names I have considered so far: My son's suggestion "Canada"; "Tippy" (for "Tippy-Toes"); "Boots" or "Mittens"; "Priscilla" (nick-name "Miss Prissy"), "Orphelia", and "Oola". (The "O" names are because I only have one pet who's name starts with "O", and I have TWO pets each who's names start with "S" and "A", and an "O" name would just round things out a little better, TEMPORARILY, while she's with us.)

    I would like any other suggestions any of you might have, and maybe then we can do a poll to pick her official name.

    Thanks.

    Ooh! I LIKE Oola as in "ooh, la, la" although the name Zsa Zsa came to my mind too as she's is just oh-so-gorgeous! I could just squish her!

    EDIT: Now that I've read your other thread and see that you've given the others All in the Family names, how about Gloria?

    I've always loved the name Talia and if I ever get another female that will be her name. A variation of Calico could be Calia. I like weird names anyway.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Well, she looks like a FLUFF or PUFF (as in powder puff) to me.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    I'm partial to Priscilla, but also like Oola. How about Princess Puff?

    OK, once we get a lot of names on here, can someone make a thread with a poll so people can vote for their favorite? Maybe on Sunday or something? I don't know for sure how to do that..............

    Thanks.

    She's so cute, and so tiny. The only name that comes to my mind when I look at her is Thumbelina. Hans Christian Anderson's little tiny girl.

    It's quite a mouthful though.

    I've also thought of the names "Fluffy", "Puffy", "Muffy", "Missy", "Jacqueline" (or "Jackie" for short, since she must have been born just a few weeks before Halloween, and it could be a feminie version of Jack-O-Lantern), "Spunky", "Punkin", "Elsa" (wasn't that the lioness' name on "Born Free" many years ago?), "Shasta", "Tori", "Baby", and "Diana" (after Princess Diana). I like all of the other suggestions, too. I just haven't quite figured out which one fits her personality and appearance the best. She is such a tiny, fragile, wee little one! Do any of these potential names stand out to any of you?
