Great story and cute thread.
Storm was already named by the Humane Society and I liked his name so I kept it. Even before I adopted Sunny, I was going to name my next cat Sunny because I was looking for a male orangie. Little did I know that this name would fit him so perfectly. Sky was named Herman and I couldn't stand this name for him so I named him Sky after his pretty blue eyes. Starr was being called Sammy because he was supposed to be adopted by another lady but she later changed her mind. I thought the name Starr suited him. Both Pearl and Ziggy Stardust were already named by another PT'er K & L and I liked both of their names so I kept them. Pearl was my grandma's name so it does have meaning for me and Ziggy Stardust was named this because of her odd eyes.:

My RB Pepper was named Chocolate but he was a black cat not brown and I thought this name was too long. I decided to name him Pepper because he was black, he started sneezing,and he was full of pep. Little did I know that Pepper was such a common name.
