Need Olympic theme kitten names!

[skater]

A stray (mostly feral) cat that escaped from our home several months ago (before I could get her spayed) came back pregnant. The 5 kittens were born on the first full day of the Sochi Olympics. I'll be fostering them. One will have to be named Sochi and there will probably be a Gracie (Gold). Any other ideas? BTW, they are in my basement in a very large cage, and Mama will not be leaving until she's in a carrier on the way to the vet .

I think Sage will be a good one, that was the snowboard guy that got the first gold for the US

How about Citius, Altius, Fortius (Faster, Higher, Stronger) and Athena (for Athens, where the first Olympics were held) for the other four kittens?

 

[Rekenna]

Goldie!

 

[disykat]

I'd go with pretty obvious ones. Goldie, Silver, Bronze, Sochi, Champ, Olympia, Sport, Ringo, etc.

oh my. thinking of some of the controversial issues of these olympics.

homophobe-Russia's stance against LGBT
biologic trash-Sochi official's killing of stray animals
Rubble-the issue of unfinished hotel rooms
Ring of Steel-the facade of security surrounding the games
suicide bomber-a reference to the train station bombings

sorry. While I have enjoyed watching the olympics in the past, I think that there is a lot of "bad" that has to happen just so us we can play games. Alas, this has been going on for centuries.

enjoy your new kittens.

Really?

 

[Shagley]

I think we need to see a picture of them so we can properly come up with names

 

[momz]

Really?

LOL. no...not really.

Twizzle - a couples skating move

I'm surprised no one's gone for the obvious:


A batch of surprise kittens during the Winter Olympics: One NEEDS to be named Ohno.

 

[Planogirl]

It's a shame that some people are so negative. The Olympics has its share of problems but I prefer to concentrate on the athletes.

Someone already mentioned mine. I like Sage.

 

[tink20]

Adler
Shayba
Bolshoi
Fisht
Russki
Sanki

These are some of the venue names

I like Sage too!

Also thought about Luge.

That's all I have.

So many great ideas . I am definitely doing Sochi, Gracie, and Sage (assuming I have the right number of girls and boys). Three down, two to go! And they are doing so well. They're robust and loud - just what I like to see . No runts that I can tell. The last litter we fostered at such a young age had two runts and one of them didn't make it. The other one is still small at almost a year old, and is the only kitten I've fostered that hasn't yet been adopted (she had hernia surgery which pushed everything back, and she doesn't show very well at PetSmart).

Now, I have to go back and re-read the ideas for the last two. Thanks for taking the time to brainstorm with me!
