We just got a new cat, named Cookie. Cookie is very appropriate for her coloring, but as a namenerd, I started thinking of what full names I could give her. The first thing I thought of was Cornelia. Any other ideas?

What a cutie! :)
I think Cookie works perfectly on its own.

I'd say, give her the full name of Cook Islands - Cookie for short.

You made me think of Captain Cook. That would be awesome.

And, though 'no man is an island', all cats are! Solitary; welcoming sometimes on their own terms, easy to overlook if that's what they want ...

We've totally abopted Sugar Cookie, because she's the snuggliest cat I've ever met!

Oo some of those are quite intriguing, thanks!

I don't think there are any names that Cookie logically works as a nn for. Cookie is kind of like Honey or Sugar, a cutesy nn not based on anything other than the perceived cuteness of the bearer and/or the cutesiness of the giver.

It's fun. :-)
My cats have full names - first, middle, last - and it's just for fun.
Although, like earthnut, they have lots of odd names. Jasper is Jazz, Jazzy, Jazzbutt and Jazzaroo (the vet called him Jaspy which annoyed me to no end.) Zeta is Z, ZZ Top, Zed. Pluto is P, Mister P, P Fluffy Jones and the boring Plut. MacDuff is Duff, Duffers, Duff, Duffleupagus and Laird MacDuff.

We gave our pets nicknames, but we never gave them full names. That's what I don't understand.

Pure, unadulterated silliness. That's it, at least for us. Their "full" names express their personality - Pluto's full name has a reference to a joke, Macduff's shares a name with a thief from Star Trek, Jazz's has Dash in it, Zeta's middle name is Bacon courtesy of my nieces. I don't put a lot of thought into them or find the "perfect" one. It's just a chance to be silly. My mom calls her dog, Max, Mr. Quacks. Silliness.

I like Duffelupagus! Snuggleupagus was always my favorite sesame street character.
My daughter has now named the cat Snuggle Muffin Cookie. :P
