What's in a name? Well, lots, especially if it's for a cherished pet. In The Complete Lexicat, Mark Bryant has not only produced over 2000 suggestions but has also collected together a wonderful gallmaufry of feline facts, feats, fiction and fables which will help all cat-lovers find an appropriate monicker for their moggies.
Household tiger or domestic sphinx, highfalutin' pedigree or mewling mongrel, every cat needs a name - if only to call it in by at night. But finding the most suitable one can be a nightmare for owners. This indispensable treasury not only lists names with their derivations, meanings and conceivable combination of fur and eye-colour or pattern, but also gives extra options for 'personalities', twins and multiples, and even physical characteristics from wedge-heads to peg-legs. In addition, a veritable clowder of cat lore, myth and legend provides still more information to help readers generate their own ideas or just curl up and enjoy.
