Wow! I’m happy to find out that so many animal lovers–in particular kitten lovers– read this blog. The winning names, suggested by two different women, have been chosen!

I loved all the names suggested even “Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer,” names I’d never heard but which I was told are from the Rock Opera “Cats.”

Now I (as in Lyn) didn’t choose the winning names. My characters, twin sister, Cindy and Mimi, first graders, had to choose. Fortunately I know them very well, having known them since they were born (in my mind GRIN).

Mimi went first–because she always does! And she said, “My kitten looks like a Twinkie, my favorite dessert in my lunch bag at school.”
And then Cindy said, “Oh, then I’ll call mine Peanutbutter because that’s my favorite part of lunch.And my kitty is that golden color too!”

My thanks to Sheree who suggested Twinkles which made me think of Twinkie! And to Terry who suggested the name peanutbutter. I have Terry’s email address.
BUT SHEREE, I NEED YOU TO EMAIL ME AT l(dot)cote(at)juno(dot)com.

This is my latest book, out now at a Wal-Mart near you. And it’s the first in a series about three Habitat for Humanity homes built for three families in Wisconsin. If you click the photo of the book cover in the right column, you will be taken to a page where the story and an excerpt are.

Some of the names on the list below which were suggested were utterly delightful and so clever! But I had to let Mimi and Cindy name them, right? (As the names came in, I put * near the ones that I thought little girls might pick).

See what you think of them. What ones are your favorites and what do you think of Mimi and Cindy’s choices?
