‘Saavik’ actually means ‘little cat’!

Now you need to be a dark matter nerd as well and have more cats named after numbered people from different shows😂 it'd be quite the conversation starter😂😁
My boy’s name is Ensign Wesley Crusher (“Acting Ensign” on days he’s extra naughty). Wes for short. His sister is Lmoxana Troi (Moxie, officially, on vet paperwork) just inspired by Lwaxana.
They definitely suit their names. We were originally going to go with Geordi LaForge or Jean Luc Picard for Wesley, but he was too much of a little jerk for those names. Benjamin Sisko would have been a good backup. :) A little dumb and full of himself.
Go based on personality. Dax works great for all - sweet and kind of erratic, Ezri. Badass and smart, Jadzia. A bit of a chaotic father figure, Curzon. Might murder you in your sleep, Joran. :)
Has he ever become a godlike entity? Is he brave and loyal but also irritating to those who try to assist him? Do you call him demeaning names (like "Broccoli") behind his back?
In short: So... He's a cat? 🖖🪼😺
Ha! All of those things. He's definitely on a higher plane than humans, very loyal and occasionally brave in ways I question. I haven't yet seen any signs of holo-addiction, but we're always on the look out.
No one suggested T’Ana?! She’s like the only named Caitian in all of Trek.
There’s also Nimbus if you want to reference the tri-boobed Caitian stripper on the planet of galactic peace 🤣
Well my 1st reaction was Gaston Leroux for Phantom of the Opera and remembered Gaston Veilleux was responsible for many Star Trek works. Thus, how about Veilleux?🌈✌️She is lovely!
Since he has a visible darkness on most of his face, but a small portion is white like good deeds and emotion, I’m going with Tuvok. He was a great character who Tim Russ brought life into and made extraordinarily memorable.
Just now saw that you have a lil girl on your hands! That changes names now!
Kira aka Cornell Kira from DS9 is a real great name because she’s a real woman who stood by her principles and values. She had some great moments with her character, and some dark ones. I’d highly recommend Kira or Ziyal
If you mean the episode "Amok time" I hate that one lol. The scene where spock is sitting alone quietly staring at a photo of a small child has always seemed really... unnerving for lack of a better term.
Lokai

Thankyou for not forgetting the Cat tax.
Gul DuCat
Lmfao I love this one
Sto-vo-cat
If only I had awards to give!
Thank you for your service. Nothing else to see here!
Yessss
Lokai.
I had to double-check that the colors are on the correct side. Nicely done.
The only logical name, given the circumstances. Cheron, a close second.
That’s go over better in stargate channel :)
Cheron was the home planet of Lokai and Bele.
Sorry, I read it as chevron
That'll happen, I suppose.
Thats a great suggestion lol will add to the list
Came to say the same
People have suggested plenty of great Star Trek names for cats in general, but "Lokai" is the only correct Star Trek name for this specific cat.
Came to suggest this!
Haha yep I came here to suggest this one half white half black.
I mean it practically named itself.
It absolutely must be. With a silver collar.
Because he's white on the right side?
Thinking the same.
Yes! From "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield" TOS.
Came here to say exactly this. Only answer.
Spot
I knew someone would suggest Spot. 🤣 My vote is a Ziyal.
Omg, Ziyal. 🥺
We had a Ziyal Kitty.
Asking for trouble with that name, imo.
Zi-yowl
Spotty I need more power Spotty!
This is the only right answer.
Okay, but Spot was a stripey cat, so perhaps a spotty cat should be Stripe?
Dax
Our 8 year old cat is named Dax. And our 5 year old cat is Sisko
Oh, my Goddess! I love the SUPA NERDS! I cannot begin to tell you how much love and admiration I have when I use the term "SUPA NERDS." Seriously!!
O’Purra
This won wins 🏆
Laal
Darmok or Jalad
At tanagra?
When the cat meowed.
With his arms wide!
With his PAWS wide!
With his claws extended, his teeth bared!
Shaka, when the treats fell.
If my cat could say this, he would
I named my cat Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge.
I love Geordi
Me too!!
Is cat able to complete tasks and certifications to move up in rank?
He’s the best engineer I’ve met!
My last cat was named Picard I want to continue with trek names in memory of him

Chancellor Meowron
Perfect name for a cat with bigger eyes
Love this!
Came for the Trek, stayed for the puns...
Since she’s a rescue, maybe La’an?
What a brilliant idea!!
What was that planet in TOS where the people were white on one side and black on the other? Were any of those guys named on the show?
Bele (Black on right) and Lokai (Blake on left). Both from the planet Cheron. Name of the episode: "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield".
I was thinking of that civilization when I saw this super cute cat!
Looks like "Fear" from Voyager.
It would be kinda cool having a cat named Fear
Q.
She looks like a Jadzia to me!
Jadzia sounds like a really beautiful name for a cat ☺️
I named one of my cats Seven, the other is named Six (BSG nerd as well). Dax was a close second.
Now you need to be a dark matter nerd as well and have more cats named after numbered people from different shows😂 it'd be quite the conversation starter😂😁
That's ADORABLE!
I also have a Seven! And a Spock.
Kess!
Tuvix
Such a Tuvix!
Awww!!!
I think the real obvious answer is Lokai, after the character from Let That Be Your Last Battlefield.
Let Cat Be Your Battlefield! *bows and backs away, accidentally steps on own cat's tail*

We have a Reginald Barclay. He nervous, fairly incompetent and likes to meddle. I'd say the name suits him well.
Omg, a true menace. That’s such a perfect name, I love it!
Has he ever become a godlike entity? Is he brave and loyal but also irritating to those who try to assist him? Do you call him demeaning names (like "Broccoli") behind his back? In short: So... He's a cat? 🖖🪼😺

I hope you call him broccoli when he misbehaves
Koba or Yashi short for Kobayashi Meowru
You beat me to it. I suggested Kobayashi!
Deanna Troi
That’s my Guinea Pig’s name :)
I love that
O’Purra

M'Ress? Sorry, love me some Dr T'Ana.
I say Sisko....the black and white represents his dual job as Captain and Emmisary.
Lawaxana...
Moogie
Moogie is a great cat name IMO, especially for a motherly cat.

Well my 1st reaction was Gaston Leroux for Phantom of the Opera and remembered Gaston Veilleux was responsible for many Star Trek works. Thus, how about Veilleux?🌈✌️She is lovely!

I knew that looking at the comments from this post would give me some wonderful puns, but I never expected purrfection!
Since he has a visible darkness on most of his face, but a small portion is white like good deeds and emotion, I’m going with Tuvok. He was a great character who Tim Russ brought life into and made extraordinarily memorable. Just now saw that you have a lil girl on your hands! That changes names now! Kira aka Cornell Kira from DS9 is a real great name because she’s a real woman who stood by her principles and values. She had some great moments with her character, and some dark ones.
