[Closed] Should I do this to me sister?

[#8461913]

So my sister had a baby girl on Sunday but still hasn't given her a name. Today we bought a girl cat and have already chosen her a name. Should I text my family including my sister that we've got a cat and this is her name? Or should I text my sister and check we're not about to pick a name they might have had?

I'm tempted to do the first one as it's annoyed me that they haven't named their daughter when they've known they're having a girl for 5 months.

Are the odds of choosing the same name pretty high, then?

What's she going to call her, Tabbytha?

Doubt she'll call it Pussy either.

Phew! I was worried what this thread would be about, turns out it's load of dribble.

Is Mrs Snaggletooth a likely name for a small child?

Just send a WhatsApp or similar with a photo saying "Check out our new cat, shes called..."

Let me guess, your sister is younger than you and you don't have kids?

It's genuinely not that easy.

Your cat - call it what you want.

Really? With 5 months notice? Surely one parent just says,
I like the names Jocinda Raspberrybush' and the other parent goes, 'Yeah, that's fine. We'll call it that then'

Call the cat Louise and tell everyone. You will have done your niece a massive favour by scratching that one off the list of possibles...

...in 6 months you will have everyones blessing to shoot the cat.

It's annoyed you that they haven't named their daughter yet? Get a hobby or something.

Just send a picture of the cat and say you are going to name it after whatever they call the child 😆

It's unlikely that your sister will name her child Sudocrem, so I think you'll be fine.

Is this a genuine question because it seems a bit mad? The chances of you calling the cat the same thing as your niece have to be pretty slim. Call the cat Snarf or Cheetara.

And you could always change the cat name.

She's just had a baby. Is she going to give a crap what your cat is called?

"The cat with no name" would work for me.

'Given that (sisters name) seems unable to think of any girls names in light of recent events, I present (cats name) [picture of cat]'

What's the cats name?

If by some miracle you have picked the same name, your cat becomes 'The Feline Formerly Known As....'

I think I read on a here once that when naming pets you should always bear in mind that when the vet calls you in, they use the name of the pet

So go for 'Dracula's Bride, Princess of Darkness'

Call the cat 'Derek', its highly unlikely they will end up with the same name.

Or a sister with a nameless child.

Frankly, you'd be better leaving this for people with something meaningful to contribute.

Here's a picture to illustrate my point:

Oddest thread ever.

If I gave you 50 attempts I reckon you would struggle to guess the new sprog's name. And most of them would make rubbish names for a cat. Apart from Louise, obvs.

just name the cat and be done with it

why do you have to present your cat to your family anyway? just tell people what the cat's name is when they are round your house
