How’s your summer going? Happy late half birthday! Thirteen and a half, woohoo. Did you do anything fun for it?
Mom’s friend from her coffee shop’s two friends both have cats who’ve had kittens (whew what a sentence) and we might get one of them. The name I’ve picked out is Paris Alexander Mikell, Paris because it’s both a name and a noun (my favorite type of cat name) as well as a character in a book I like, The Iliad. As you can see, I put way too much thought into it. Alexander is because it’s a good name in general, I’m a fan of Alexander the Great, and mom is a fan of Hamilton. Sorry if this explanation is annoying, but it’s really fun to explain-
Do you like the name? I’m thinking of giving it the nickname ‘Ashes’ because it’s cute and references the ashes of the city of Troy where Paris came from- I know, I know, I’m stupid. If you got a cat, how would you go about naming it? I took the most complicated route possible. If it turns out to be a girl, I’ll have to choose between Alexandra and Alexandria for a middle name. Which one do you like better? I’m leaning towards Alexandria. I do wish I could have your input. It’ll be our cat, after all, since it’s the family cat.
With love,
Alice
