I say Roan (short for blue roan, which is what the kitten would be called if it were a horse). The mom says just "blue".

Kitty is a she... she's Thai (Korat cat, purebred, grand champion pedigree). Roan is a nice name but I'm a bit concerned that it might be too close in sound to "No", especially with the Maryland accents 'round these parts. Best thing I've come up with so far is "Suree" which means "good thing" in Thai - I'm not so sure I'm satisfied with that though.

LOL. "Roan" is sometimes the English transcription of the Gaelic "ròn" (seal) as in "Roan Inish", "Island of the Seals."

A cat named "Seal." Does he like water? (A friend once had a cat that loved water.)
