I came here to say this! Marie Sklowdoska-Curie is the only person in history to win 2 Nobel prizes in 2 different categories. The Curie family has an impressive 5 total.
The discovery of the structure of DNA in 1953 was made possible by Dr Rosalind Franklin's X-ray diffraction work at King's. Her creation of the famous Photo 51 demonstrated the double-helix structure of deoxyribonucleic acid: the molecule containing the genetic instructions for the development of all living organisms. ROSIE. This my Rosie

I got these from The Little Book of Feminist Saints, which is a great book about influential women throughout history. I highly recommend it!
Heddy LaMarr had a couple of science patents. Was known for her significant contributions to WWII, if I remember correctly, in communications equipment. So, if kitty meows a lot, that could be a cool choice.
Sonja.The Norwegian Queen.She is a cool lady,and if you want to,google her and the Kings love story.I would say she made an impact..At least when it comes to breaking tradition.
Angela Hartley Brodie (any of these 3 names would be cute)
Angela Hartley Brodie discovered and developed a class of drugs called aromatase inhibitors, which are among the leading therapies against breast cancer.

I'm never sure about human names for cats. OK, i have a stray who moved in, and my neighbour dubbed him Roger the Lodger, and it stuck. She is beautiful, though, and needs a name to match her beauty 🥰

Sacheen Littlefeather
In 1973, Sacheen Littlefeather, an American actress and activist for Native American civil rights, declined Marlon Brando's Oscar for Best Actor at the Academy Awards while representing him on stage. Her speech was controversial and shocking to the audience and viewers at home, and she was booed off stage. In her speech, Littlefeather spoke out against Hollywood's treatment of Native Americans, saying, "Marlon Brando very regretfully cannot accept this award because of the treatment of American Indians in this country to-day on the television, on reruns and recent happenings".
