I guess breeders would worry that less then perfect names would reflect badly on them when pups registered

The new owners do get to pick their own names, it's called a pet name

Never kept or been influenced by any existing names of my dogs, would be the same with kittens, so I would not be bothered either way. Not that I would buy a pedigree cat through preference
It isnt about a show/breed name as most go as pets but when you register a kitten/puppy it has to have a name, I asked everyone to pick theres and apart from 1 person they all said can I choose it, so I now have themes and everyone raelly likes the names.

It also helps when sending pictures as everyone can see which kitten/pup is which by the name if alot look alike.

nothing wrong with going to a good breeder who health tests and does everything properly

Who ever said there was

Personally I would not go to any cat breeder as I would be perfectly happy with one of the many beautiful rescue cats or kittens sitting waiting in rescues ... **** my cat rescue friends would lynch me if I didn't

If and more likely when we get another kitty I would love another big black, short haired moggy tom

My kind of cat

Re: Do you choose pedigree names for your kittens?

When we have kittens, we will be naming & registering them under themes & then new owners can call them what they like. To me, that is important to be able to name kittens I will have bred & potentially see on the show bench. I don't care what owners want to call their new babies at home, it has nothing to do with me.

I know breeders of both "kinds" who either use themes or let owners choose. It's nice to let owners choose but it seems higildy pigildy to me. I like the idea of being able to say the "spice litter" or "precious gem litter".

Out of our 3 cats, only 1 has a pet name relating to their pedigree name.
