In what is becoming a Biggerstaff tradition of doubling up on adoptions - Ar brought home two cats from his shelter foray this morning. They are secured in our bedroom for now, which is too dimly lit too get a good picture, but I will post pictures soon. We adopted the kitten we had planned on adopting - as well as her 1 year old mother (with quite a bit of prompting from the shelter). Now we have to pick two names....Both of the kittens are girls, so Pierre is out, but I am pretenious enough that they must have literary names. Here are our following finalists, so please weigh in on your favorites, or new suggestions.
Tess (Tess of the D'Ubervilles)
Lyra (Golden Compass)
Kate (Taming of the Shrew)
Franny and Zooey (Franny and Zooey)
Portia (The Merchant of Vencie)
Charlotte and Emily (The Bronte Sisters)
Hero (Much Ado About Nothing)
Masha (War and Peace)

How about Mary & Shelley? :)
If I was going to go with pure name preference (regardless of literary associations), I'd go with Tess and Portia. Those strike me as very cat-like names and they're pretty too!
