Re: Iris names

Otoh, the following show CAT names would probably not work for irises:

Just Some Funky Furball (he has weird fur, and his "initials" are the same as the cat club whose officers co-own him)
Alex da Hyper Dood (who is nuts and does act like he has ADHD)
The Grand Illusion (well, maybe that one)

But I have had some shorter ones- Abacab, Renegade, Eglantine (already a flower, not sure that would work), Equinox and Foxtrot.<G>

Looks like the major US cat registries allow more letters and spaces than AKC or AIS.<G>

It sounds to me like naming Iris is very much like naming show dogs.
Imagination is the key to coming up with something unique when so many have
gone before you.

Some of the names I've used for dogs in the past....
Ifit Works Dont Fixit
Boys Will Be Boys
An Ivory Peacock
Causin A Riot
Stop'N'Go
Stop'N'Chat
Rock Aroun The Clock
Irish Cream
Cat's Pajamas
High Falutin'
Naughty But Nice
Can't Catch Me
Classic Rock
Not Justa Pretty Face
Stray Cat Strut
Trick'R Treat
Go For The Gusto
In The Mood
Winner Take All

I imagine a lot of them could also be used for iris (if they haven't been
already!). Trying to come up with unique names that people will remember is
fun. Sometimes time consuming - but fun.
