We are adopting a cat this week and she is lovely! We're having a hard time deciding on a name. here are the family suggestions. Our son is three and would likely pick Thomas so only me, my husband's and my daughter's choices are here.

Is that your son's name or is that just one of those names he's latched onto and names everything?
He's obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine.
She looks like a Cupcake to me 
Y-you do know that cupcakes look like more like

right?
right?
If you pick a Tomcat, Mia and Cupcake may be bad ideas.
I picked Strider, but I'd probably name that cat Hazel if it was mine.
Yes....he certainly is. That name can't happen though!
Switchblade Motorcross.
Well, if we're going wrestling names, we gotta go obscure: Battle Cat!
Personally, I like to figure out the cat's personality and then come up with a name for it. That's how Diomedes was named. Like the Greek legend, the kitten endlessly attacked and played with everything and anything in sight. Of course, I was also knee-deep in a Classical Epic course at the time and the instructor told an awesome story about Diomedes.

Dammit.
Dammit is a great name for a cat.
Call it "Get Off the Counter"
You'll be shouting that enough as it is. Might as well make it official.

Of those suggestions, Strider for a Tom, Cupcake for a female cat (so shoot me, I don't know the proper word).

That does explain why I've never been a huge fan of them and people always looked weird at me when I said I thought cupcake hairs always got stuck between my teeth...Y-you do know that cupcakes look like more like

That was the reason for my suggestion too.
My brother had a dog named Dammit once. It did not work out.
The five year old twins next door would call his name for hours on end. He never went over to them either...

When you call your cats, do you like to repeat their name constantly? Like, "Here, kitty kitty kitty kitty kitty!"
If so, Mia is going to sound like "Here, me yummy yummy yummy yummy". Try it.
Strider is hard due to the change between the st and d sounds.
And cupcake has way too many vocal stops.
I think you may need to hit the drawing board again.

Name your cat Nana so it sounds like you're singing the Batman song.[DOUBLEPOST=1343740972][/DOUBLEPOST]According to a post HC made on Facebook like 30 minutes ago, I'm guessing they chose Strider.
To call my cat I just rub my thumb and finger together.
