Ayesha is another nice one That was the name of She Who Must Be Obeyed in the Rider Haggard books apparently, and that description fits my oldest horse (who is Ayesha) perfectly!

thanks for cheering me up a little this morning. Ayesha was my mother in law's name.

How about Maite (my-eat-ay), it means love in the Basque language. Or same language, Txika (pron. like 'cheeka': means little one, feminine version). Or Zuri, which means beautiful in Swahili.

Thanks, il have a look at basque names as those are nice

Any particular colour? I'm not one for "colour" names usually, but love the name Nyx - which would be for a black female cat. If I remember rightly it's a Goddess of darkness in Greek mythology.

I've got a Morticia (who is helping me type).

I still wonder if you're looking for cat names or human kittens

Susanne (urbantigers) · « **Reply #30 on:** November 18, 2009, 15:04:41 PM »

Safina. It means beautiful one or something like that. I read about a lion in a zoo called Safina and have earmarked the name for if I ever have a female cat

A friend of ours has a female Birman named Aisha (a-EE-sha). The name has an arabic origin and the meaning is like lively, perky, full of life etc. It has a lovely sound to it, and not overly common.

isn't it funny how knowing the right (or wrong!) person affects how you feel about a name!

I was thinking that! I really hate the name Natalie because when I was younger a girl of that name was hideous to me.
