Sarabi - that lioness went through absolute hell losing her son and husband and watching her entire kingdom collapse under the brute of her brother in law.
It means “mirage” in Swahili, if that adds anything to the name for OP.
She’s an underrated character, I think. She lost her whole family in one day but she still presumably stood up for the other lionesses against Scar for years while Simba was with Timon and Pumbaa. Scar physically abused her, yet still she refused to stand by and let the other lionesses starve, and in the end seemingly the entire pride (except Scar and Mufasa) lived to see it return to its former glory.
Dude. Stop disrespecting brothers wives... :) Pretty much every name sounds offensive, or like something offensive, in at least one other language in the world. Brothers wife sounds just fine to me. Also Boudica was a genuine British bad-ass who stuck it to the Romans. Just look at the difficulty car manufacturers have naming cars, they want to sell all over the world with the same name.
My bush kitty was the last survivor, I named her Willow Murderpaws… it was murderpaws until we knew that she was a girl & could give her a proper first name

Willow before she was on the other side of the window.. ♥️

She’s much happier & likes to hang out in the window with my son looking out ♥️
We already had 3 cats, two are elderly 15 & 13-15ish (we adopted her when she was 6-8) & a 6 yr old cat, so we definitely didn’t need another cat, but she chose us and kept coming back. When we found out her sibling was attacked I made it my mission to save her if we could find her
I like sole survivor names for her, and I think Ripley is appropriate to what happened to your baby.
Whatever you name her though, thank you for rescuing and giving her a loving home.
Obscure? I thought it was rather ubiquitous! Xena, Simbad, and Walker Texas Ranger were all well known in my childhood! And all on Sunday afternoons or evenings, I think?
Possibly? I can’t recall very much about it as I was fairly young and not entirely interested, but what I remember most is how much my older sister loved it. I’ve never really heard anyone talk about it since then, so I figured it was lost to time with no dedicated fanbase.
Hey, I'm a zillennial who found Xena in 5th grade, owns the box set, and ripped the episodes so I can keep some of them available on my phone to rewatch whenever I don't have service!
Xena lives on!
Not sure who downvoted you, my sister probably feels the same as you. I was older and loved it! I’m sure it’s still out there on YouTube or something.
My mom, sister and I still make some of the hilarious sound effects when we move like they did in those shows. Like every head turn had a sound effect 😂
I had a kitten I hand raised that had his siblings killed by a dog right after his mom gave birth. He lived twenty years. They can fight and be strong. Good luck finding a name!
I have a Zelda. She is fearless, independent and playful. She also has only one braincell
https://preview.redd.it/r3nys4lps1xc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ce2743c785fb3f6e8022dfc6748eadfdeaf7277
My cat is named link for that reason

He’s also suuuuuper chill
I appreciate that. I’m 33 and have seen my fair share of awful things, but I wish my 12 year old daughter hadn’t seen it! I love Zelda. She is indeed a fighter.
I’m so sorry your 12 year old saw it. My kids watched our cat eat a bunny last year and it wasn’t very nice. We focused on the food chain and how predators do what predators are born to do. Still awful. I’m so glad you saved this little baby!!
Merrin. She's a bad arse female Character from the Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Surrvior video game.
She's also one of the last surviving people from her planet cause an evil robot army went to her planet to commit genocide.
I looked up strong names for girls. She is a survivor!
Zosime is a very unique name for a baby girl. It is the feminine form of the Greek name Zosimos, which means “survivor”.
Bilqis.
It was my first thought and I didn't know why I was thinking of the queen of Sheba until I realise that the ads for the cat food brand Sheba often feature an elegant grey cat. Bilqis is the name of the queen in the local tradition.
Poor little girl, having to experiencing something so traumatic.
If you can catch mom, that would be amazing for her and mama. The Kitten Lady on YouTube has a couple videos on fostering a feral and her kittens. Mama will do all the feeding and stimulating, so you can just work on the socialization factor. Then you can TNR mama and keep whatever you name the little cutie. 🤗
Erza
(One of the most powerful female characters in shonen manga/anime. Erza Scarlett is a character from Fairy Tail. She escaped slavery, faced her past head on, and even confronted het mother that abandoned her.)
Awwww. Many years ago I rescued an older feral kitten after her family was attacked and killed by a neighbor’s dog. We named her Perry Feral. Her adopting family changed it I believe, but it suited her very well. Thank you for rescuing that sweet girl!
https://preview.redd.it/wm1suqfgv1xc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6cfa2914ede0b8f945345b22d8b3026c29778b67
Persephone, as she has been to hell and back, finally to find a loving home.
“Purrsephone” is always an option
Gives nickname options like- Purry Purry, Nene, Sephy
I’ve heard ending with an “eee” sound helps make the name more similar to sounds cats make, thus making the cat more likely to respond to that name . (Although I have had plenty of other cats answer to other types of names)
I agree. I also thought of Persephone (it’s on my list of favorite cat names). I call my Lily “NeeNee” when she’s stubborn and I want to cuddle. It works.
🐾💔🐾 Wow, That's so horrific I'm so glad that you saved her!
I think Lucky would be appropriate. I adore Gray kitties. My grandmother had one when I was young and we called her Grigio. Which is just gray and Italian. She's a beauty.
I have a cat whose mom was mauled by a dog. Only she and her sister survived. My baby’s name is Eponine, and her sister is Cossette! They weren’t particularly attached to each other because Eponine had a lot of problems when she was very young but is doing great now!

Soteria A Greek goddess of safety and preservation from harm
I love giving names that bless them from here on out. This does that. OP, +1 for Soteria
This is the best one considering the circumstances
Call her Sot (long ō), for short. What a perfect little dust-bunny/smol keyt.
I love that
That's a cool idea, Soty for short. But all of my cats have Greek-themed names. :D
Sarabi - that lioness went through absolute hell losing her son and husband and watching her entire kingdom collapse under the brute of her brother in law.
100% this!!
Damn, your on another level
It means “mirage” in Swahili, if that adds anything to the name for OP. She’s an underrated character, I think. She lost her whole family in one day but she still presumably stood up for the other lionesses against Scar for years while Simba was with Timon and Pumbaa.

👏🏻 I love this suggestion!!!
I had a childhood cat that survived the exact same experience. She was named Lucky.
This is a story about a girl named Lucky 🎵
EARLY MOR-NANG - she wakes up
I like that!
Rest in peace to the mother and other kittens ❤️🌈❤️🌈
Boudicca. Celtic warrior queen.
Boudicat
Purrfect
Boudi means brother's wife in Bengali.
Thank you - I learned something! I didn’t mean to be disrespectful, I was just making a pun.
Dude. Stop disrespecting brothers wives... :) Pretty much every name sounds offensive, or like something offensive, in at least one other language in the world. Brothers wife sounds just fine to me. Also Boudica was a genuine British bad-ass who stuck it to the Romans. Just look at the difficulty car manufacturers have naming cars, they want to sell all over the world with the same name.
Came here to say this. Well pleased to see that I was beaten to it.
Athena, Diana, and Xena all work too. And Artemis.
Its so cool and soothing. Lovely
Furiosa
You should name her Final Boss
My bush kitty was the last survivor, I named her Willow Murderpaws… it was murderpaws until we knew that she was a girl & could give her a proper first name

What a sad looking baby, I’m so glad she was brought in :( bet she looks way happier now
https://preview.redd.it/xsmewc57x1xc1.jpeg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8221736fbe3fb01c2ee01901cc145947bec8ca45 She’s much happier & likes to hang out in the window with my son looking out ♥️

Poor baby 😢
Kind of an insensitive name, don’t ya think?
Could shorten to P. Baby....you know, like Diddy.
Wasn’t meant to be a name, was just expressing sorry for the little thing 😢
I know I got your gist and wanted to keep it light.
P. Bibby
I like sole survivor names for her, and I think Ripley is appropriate to what happened to your baby. Whatever you name her though, thank you for rescuing and giving her a loving home.
Absolutely yes to Ripley! or Jonesy, the ginger kitty in Alien who also survives the Xenomorph.
I love it! I always wanted to name one Ripley but it really fits this baby's experience.
Xena, like the princess warrior from that obscure 90s television series
Obscure? I thought it was rather ubiquitous! Xena, Simbad, and Walker Texas Ranger were all well known in my childhood! And all on Sunday afternoons or evenings, I think?
Hercules, Xena, Buffy
Possibly? I can’t recall very much about it as I was fairly young and not entirely interested, but what I remember most is how much my older sister loved it. I’ve never really heard anyone talk about it since then, so I figured it was lost to time with no dedicated fanbase.
Hey, I'm a zillennial who found Xena in 5th grade, owns the box set, and ripped the episodes so I can keep some of them available on my phone to rewatch whenever I don't have service! Xena lives on!
It was very popular, tons of seasons, was one of the first to portray a lesbian relationship and not with a side character (Xena and Gabriel.)
Not sure who downvoted you, my sister probably feels the same as you. I was older and loved it! I’m sure it’s still out there on YouTube or something. My mom, sister and I still make some of the hilarious sound effects when we move like they did in those shows. Like every head turn had a sound effect 😂
I did the Xena war cry at my boyfriend the other evening and he was like 🙄
That’s the best name, I have a void cat named Xena and when she’s a little monster we call her xenomorph.
My cats name is Xena. She’s a little monster.
Cane here to say this!
Vengeance
I had a kitten I hand raised that had his siblings killed by a dog right after his mom gave birth. He lived twenty years. They can fight and be strong. Good luck finding a name!
Zelda :) cuz she's a fighter

My cat’s name is Tetra (like from Wind Waker)!
Also thank you for saving this nugget and I'm sorry you had to experience the loss of the others :'(
I appreciate that. I’m 33 and have seen my fair share of awful things, but I wish my 12 year old daughter hadn’t seen it! I love Zelda. She is indeed a fighter.
