While having dinner with my husband, he was napping in my lap. When I started discussing something being a little bit spicy, this little kitty started going crazy! After repeating a few other names I had picked out and no reaction at all, I started talking about spicy food again and he went nuts! So we named him Spicy and his personality is definitely fitting.

I have had many Siamese cats over the years, all with wonderful names.
Samantha (Seal point), Tina (Blue point), both childhood cats and family named.
My first adult pair were Chloe (Chocolate Tortie Point) and Sabre (Red Point), my only boy, he picked me. Sabre was such a great name for him, he reminded me of a Sabre Tooth Tiger.
My second pair were Mia and Kiki (both Chocolate points and I still have Kiki) – both fantastic names. Both very oriental type names.
My current kittens are from the same litter, Chai (Blue point), she is turning into a wonderful Chai type colour. And her sister Indi (a Lilac Point) short for Indigo the colour. Enjoy naming your Siamese, and enjoy them.
