For this kitty. She is gray and white. Very laid back, sweet and a total lap kitty. Not sure what the prize is yet, it will be something small yet amusing...

Don't care about the prize. In order to figure out a name, I'd like to ask these questions...

How old is she?
Where did you find her?
Are there any other cats in your household and if so what are their names?

I think that's a good start. Julie she's very cute and this is a great idea to have a name game .

She is about 2 or 3. She was a stray, ended up in a county shelter. Our other cats are: Frosty, Calypso and Jambalaya.

thanks to everyone who helps!

Julie, what a cutie pie that little one is!

She's got all sorts of possibilities:

Cookie (she looks like a sandwich cookie)
Amber (her coloring)
Beignet (in keeping with the jambalaya theme)

OK, I decided, I like Beignet the best! She's got a donut coloring! <grin>

The color on the photo is not accurate, she is a gray color. A dusty gray.

Juju is always an excellent name for a new cat.

I think Shakespeare's ladies have great names. Sorry, Ophelia is already taken, but you could do Juliet.

I kinda like Dusty. Besides if you named the new kitty something "grand" Frosty would feel left out.

Frosty & Dusty, Calypso and Jambalaya

Hmm Serate, til you put it like that, I wasn't liking Dusty. But it does go well with Frosty...

Okay, so Dusty will make the final cut.

Here are some others we are kicking around: Aphrodite, Annabelle, Paris, Mopsy, Periwinkle, Tinkerbell, Morocco.

If she were a he, I would like Picasso.

Are there any famous girl cats, besides Dutchess?

Yay! Dusty made the cut!!!

Of the others you mentioned I like Morocco and Annabelle.

But I agree with Serate, I think she needs a name that's less grand so Frosty doesn't feel left out.

Sorry, Froggie, but I beg to differ, all cats deserve grand names. It is their right!!!

Hey, Froggie, did you ever see 'CATS'? I guess according to TS Eliot, all cats have a secret name that only they know. I think Ophelia's is 'Queen of all I Survey'; and you darn well better get used to it.

Julie, Oscar thought "Oscarette" would be a great name for your new kitty!

I, on the other hand, think that Layla would be a great name for a sweetheart of a lap kitty!

Thanks to everyone giving opinions and suggestions!!

Now that we are getting to see more of her personality, are there any names that would reflect her tendency to drape herself on people or furniture? She kinda pours herself out--all sprawled out. Like syrup... The other kitties in the house pretty much stay hidden, but she is all out and about, if she is not draped all over your lap...

For some reason she looks like a jade to me, the name just popped into my mind when I first saw her picture.

Julie, The "tendency to drape herself on people or furniture" made me think of 30's film stars. You might want to look into some of those names.
