I am considering these names for naming my cat mascot. Currently the cat has no name.

Note: If you have your own name suggestions, please post it and I will add them into the poll.

P.S. Using of "Wohl" prefix is not good idea.

EDIT:
Poll has been finished!

Don't need connect to one language, name must be unique, and understandable is a secondary. A lot of names, brands, created without closing to English language. We can use all languages of world for get best concept for cat's name. But German have similar world with English:
Contact - Kontakt
Mouse - Maus (similar pronunciation)
etc.

In my opinion, it sounds weird.

I voted Wholcat. It's a pretty cute name.

Actually, I think if the name was just "Gyro", it would be a good name. Personally, I would like to have a cat named Gyro, because the name is easy to remember, and has a bit of style to it. I vote for MeowFlash's idea, sort of!

Wohlcat is fitting here, I think. At first I've thought of Wohlfrisky (Frisky is english name of my cat), but Wohlcat sounds more... I don't know, more cute / adorable? ;-)
Poof!

Oh, I like the Frisky name :catkiss: , but I will add both (Wohlfrisky, and Frisky), also I think, too many "wohl" word begins in names is not good

I agree with CaptainSwag. Gyro is both stylish and pretty easy to remember. :o Also, like Wohlstand said, too much Wohl in everything's names gets tiring after a while.

Guess I'll change my vote to Gyro, then. :) *revotes*
:D
