'zactly!
On to my kitties...
RB Jamara: she was left behind at a rental house my sister owned('nother topic)...her name was Phoebe, I didn't like it and I didn't want her having anything from her former life. I was doing a lot of research into white witchcraft and the Tarot at the time; came across the term Jamara, which was an ancient Indian term for a witch's familiar (a familiar is that through which a witch casts spells, oft times a black cat), she was solid grey, and I thought it was perfect. Most of her 18 years I had to spell it for people, as well as tell them to stop calling her Jo-Mamma, but, you know...
Pinot: we went out to the shelter, this kitty picked us (story told many times), and she was a tiny tabby named "Zoe". She came to her home with us and I was adamant we had to name her and get a collar/tag for her immediately (I don't like un-tagged furbabies). We went over a large list of options, including several in other languages meaning 'small' or 'tiny' due to her 5lb size, the last on the list being 'Pico'. My husband vetoed it, and said, what else do you have? I said the next word that came to mind and it was 'Pinot' - he said "that has possibilities".So....Pinot she became, and her middle name is Noir, not Grigio.
