We will be in touch
I am looking to get a couple of bengal kittens in the coming weeks or months and have been thinking about names for them. The plan, not cast in stone, was to get 2 siblings - a boy and girl and call them Babbage and Ada - or if two boys possibly Babbage and Turing. I can't think of a good 2nd girls name though if needed. Are these names too geeky and if I get 2 girls, what should the 2nd one be called ?
Shrodinger or Seefer.
Also, This Thread Is Useless Without Pictures.
keep it simple...
0 and 1
Cheese and crackers.
Grace (as in Hopper)?
One of the many great things about cats is they don't give a **** what you call them. So just call them Babbage and Ada or whatever, never mind if they're male or female. I used to have a brilliant little mog called Steve, she was bonkers.
Alice and Bob?
Bengal Kittens?
Don't and Eat Me?

Benson and Hedges
We've got three boys, Joey, Archie and Colin. But you can call them Curly, Larry and Mo, they'll only listen if there's a reason to.
Call yours Dick and Liddy.
5 and 5e?
Call them both Schrödinger, but only when you can't see them?
Buster and Keaton
Conan & Sonja
Smith and Wesson
Watson and Crick
Fortran and Cobol?
Reverse and Polish?
much to my shame,I was bullied* into having a cat which soon turned out to be 2, a brother and sister( mum cat allegedly run over) any way boy is samson and the girl obvious innit?
I wanted to call them one and two.. if one got lost we would still have two. They are well laid back no problems so far.

samson
Al and Gore because he invented the internet.
Or name them after databases and go for Mongo and Maria
We, apparently, are getting some chickens when we move into our new house. There will be four of them, apparently.
She's calling two of them Clarissa and Henrietta. I'm determined that the other two will be called Genghis and Fang.
Dave & Kevin. Sorted.
Dead & Alive
or you could follow what we've done and name them after brands of bikes..
Itchy and Scratchy
oedipus & Jocasta
True and False
null and void
Truth and Dare
Stop & It
I called my cat Tesla, she would have been called that if she was a boy also. I'm sure there could be Tesla and Edison or something although Edison strikes me as a boy cat name for some reason.
You need a geeky girls name that's not Ada and you can't think of one?
I'll give you a clue - there's only one person ever won Nobel prizes in two different sciences, and it's a woman. She was also the first woman to win a Nobel.
My neighbour's old cat was called Belerophon Catfeatures the Second (there was no Belerophon Catfeatures the First, they just thought it gave him more gravitas). So call it whatever you want I reckon.
Ex's cats (she turned into a cat lady) are Ffffffish, Fatty, Pongo and Flat Eric. Pongo was the dog's name but every time they called him, he ignored it and the cat came running so a name exchange was arranged and now the dog is called Axl Rose.
Bit and Byte
When me and my brother shared a house a while back, we had three cats.
They were Bruce, Keith, and Doctor Electric.
Pinky and Perky?
Taxi and Police?
No, got it. Sting and Bono. Then you can claim that you spend every night with Sting and Bono. Awesome.
Bit and Byte
Byte and Nibble?
Spot and Lore
"A cat must have three different names."

Geeky names:
Sheldon and Amy, then you can refer to them collectively as Shamey
or sticking with the non fictional science names what about Watson and Crick
cat and dog?
jesus and christ?
god and allah?
aymabi and tofadik?
The two bengals on our street are called "Cassius" and "Simba"
Our cat is called Kropotkin, it was supposed to be a girl, and was going to be Rosa Luxemburg.
collar and cuffs?
Orwell and Huxley?
We had a ginger Tom called Frank. He was a right nasty ****er.
What about "Pretentious" and "Moi?"?
Berners and Lee
Higgs and Boson
I have my dog called Louis and we are picking up one of his daughters next week, she's going to be called Elle.
Just a bit of a play on him and her in French.
Sad I know but it was the best I could think of.
My other two cats are Franky and Bennie, don't know where those names came from 😉

Thunder & Bolt...
Thor & Mjölnir...

A good choice in terms of fame and science, but I was looking more for the British side of the channel.
Fish is a fine looking girl/boy.
I do like Byte and Nibble. 🙂
I ended up back a girl's house once and her cats were called Cat Bastard and Fat Cat Bastard.
Was easy enough to tell them apart to be fair.
We had Jack & Jill
Peek and Poke ( <- this one! )
Blaise and Pascal
vi and emacs 🙂
Ours are called Fred and Ginger. Both girls. One is really ginger. The other one is fred 😉
Our chickens were named after the spice girls for reasons I can't remember. Until they were eaten during a frenzied fox attack. The replacements don't have names. Chook seems to work for any chicken.
Fred

kudosWhat about "Pretentious" and "Moi?"?
Kudos, for well, you get it
Dave & Kevin. Sorted.
We have a policy of giving them human names (they also have to have a connection with Newcastle Utd). Our 3 are called Bob, Alan and Kevin. If we get another the next name on the list is Malcolm.
Cagney & Lacey?
Assumes they are both less than good looking 🙂
Bengals you say? Noise and Mischief it is then!
Steve and Karen
Just call one s**t and one b**stard as inevitably those will be words aimed at them at somepoint!
Judah and Jesus
Jesus and Mary
Anthony and Flea
Tony and Carmella
Rust and Marty
Cersei and Jamie (particularly odd if they are brother and sister!)
Bonny and Clyde
Next doors cats are called "Spartacus and Hannibal". 😯

Position and velocity? Fine as long as they're never together.
Here are Drum and Bass the day they came home with me from a rescue centre.

The names work well because Bass is the black cat and so therefore she is Basement Cat who must be feared.
[Uber geek]
Jadzia and Curzon
[/ug]
Cersei and Jamie (particularly odd if they are brother and sister!)
Not if the inevitable happens before they get neutered, would be spot on then!
We had Gomez (MIA) and Morticia (still with us).
Got told a story about someone that had Bengals. They were quite psycho and highly string and could not go to a cattery during holidays, so the owners used to get a housesitter in for them.
One decided that the housesitter's bed was a comfortable, warm and nice place to take a massive, sloppy dump. The poor girl only found out when she got into bed.
Bengals are nasty.

You'll never have curly hair if you don't eat your crusts.
Branching out into different nerdery, a friend of a friend ended up with Fafhrd and Sammy. Because apparently Grey Mouser is a ridiculous name for a cat.
Arwen, brown spotted Bengal

All five live happily together and are now two years old. pippin is 7.5kgs and huge but not overweight as they are the largest domesticated cat.
Merlin is the typical tom cat, lean, mean and naughty......
How about Bebop and Rocksteady?
My mate had a cat called Sefer, another pal called his Cat.
Just call them both Stopscratchingthecouchyou****er.
Job done.
