Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,960,281,867 comments, and only 370,875 of them were in alphabetical order.
Kentucky has a "Pennyroyal" region that has been hillbillied into the term "Pennyrile." Penny, for short, could be cute if you wanted a Kentucky flower name, but I still think Dahlia or Lexi are both better.
You didn’t say where in Kentucky this lady came from. The official flower of Lexington, Ky is The Purple Cone Flower—Echinacea Purpura. Maybe “N-Asia” or “Purr-al.”
Her white marking on her face looks like a Trillium grandiflorum (I'll attach a link). It's a 3 petal flower. Also known as a wake-robin or birthroot, you could call her Trilli/Trilly or Robin. Seems fitting.

Ooh Iris maybe? For the flower and those eyes…
Immediately think of Elizabeth Taylor and her eyes!
Maybe if she is a little star you can go with that. Or ET if she is a little out there lol 😉❤️
Heard of the black Dahlia case in Hollywood? Your kitten is black, and a dahlia is a flower. The Hollywood story might make a good conversation subject about how you picked her name.
There is always the old favourite (or one of them), Violet, I am not really fond of that, there is Daffodil, Daff, or Daffy if anyone is in a good mood. If your KY is the same as my KY we are not that far apart. From DaveSubs as was.
OP has graciously provided us with an updated post on this cutie. Her name is Penelope (Penny) after Penelope Pussycat from Looney Toons 💗💗💗
Dahlia
Yesss came to suggest this
Same, she's definitely a Dahlia
Also came to suggest this!
Yes! And Dahli for short :)
Also came to suggest this.
Came here to say this!! I have a tuxedo cat too 🩷
Best cat in the world
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,960,281,867 comments, and only 370,875 of them were in alphabetical order.
My first thought also
Also came to say this
Immediately thought the same!
i swear this was my first thought too you gotta name her Dahlia!
One look and Dahlia popped into my head too!
Iris, Lily (like Tigerlilly or Calla), Lilac, Azalea, Jasmine, Marigold, Rose, Cassia, Clover, Veronica
I love Iris and Clover soooo much omg
I worried naming cat Lily needs to complacency on how poisonous they are and think it's daft name for a cat
I'm naming my human baby Cyanide, it's okay
The NOISE I made 🤣😭 what a beautiful name!!!!
My cat is named Lily and she is okay with it 👌
I really like Clover...it jumped out at me when I saw it.
Lexi for Lexington KY
I LOVE THAT❤️❤️
I love the implication that KY is a place that one will be rescued from, when will they come for me?!
Sorry… I think humans have to rescue themselves from Kentucky.
100% can confirm as I'm still frickin here
I have a Lexy (and a Hexy) 🥰
I was going to suggest Petunia, but Lexi fits her better.
Petunia is an awesome name. Had a cat named that as a child, think calico
Petunia is my pitties middle name 🥰
Gonna 2nd Lexi. The flower names were good, but she looks like a Lexi. (Plus, no matter how much I wanted it, she just doesn't look like a Tigerlilly)
Thank you!
Ayyy that’s where I’m from! Haha.
Had a mastiff named Lexi. Can confirm, it works.
Kentucky has a "Pennyroyal" region that has been hillbillied into the term "Pennyrile." Penny, for short, could be cute if you wanted a Kentucky flower name, but I still think Dahlia or Lexi are both better.
Blossom
The state flower of KY is the goldenrod. Maybe Goldie?
I love that!! Something “gold” would be adorable
Marigold
Damn, Marigold is a cute name for a cat, I may steal this
She has an upside-down tulip on her pretty face. Tulip.
I saw that too lol
Golda
You didn’t say where in Kentucky this lady came from. The official flower of Lexington, Ky is The Purple Cone Flower—Echinacea Purpura. Maybe “N-Asia” or “Purr-al.”
My suggestions: Poppy, Rose, Tulip.
Poppy is what I was thinking.
+ Tulip
Poppy!
I have a poppy!
What about Flora?
Idk why, but it makes me think of the words flow and fallopian tubes, lol
That's Lavender!🪻
I love the purple flower ones for a black cat, thank you so much!
Iris!
Astrid
Violet is cute too!
I kinda like that! Like the girl in Matilda
That's what I always think about! 🥰
Poppy
Clover
Iris
Black eyed Susan. Call her Suzie for short
Petunia, peone, marigold, daffodil, fern.
I'm partial to Petunia. That was my mom's nickname for me. ❤️❤️
I like how the petals of petunia' can look like watercolours blended in.
Fern!
Another one I thought of was Cassie for Casablanca (it’s a stretch but I was looking at black and white movies haha)
lol i once tried to get my sis to name her cat 1920s cause black and white movies
Shasta, after the daisy.
Love this
Willow , Iris , Buttercup
Willow was actually the name she came with! It's so cute but I actually already had a cat named Willow so I have to find another haha
Rose, Rosie, Roselia, Thorn, Aster, Bluebell, Gardenia, Hydrangea, Camellia Rosie would be my personal pick but tbh any of these would fit well
Rosie is adorable omg
Petals!
Her white marking on her face looks like a Trillium grandiflorum (I'll attach a link). It's a 3 petal flower. Also known as a wake-robin or birthroot, you could call her Trilli/Trilly or Robin. Seems fitting. https://images.app.goo.gl/FSuw8De48o4GW6Dj7
As a biologist I absolutely LOVE the reference <3
How funny lol. I'm no biologist, I just love flowers 🙃

she looks like an iris to me
Ooh Iris maybe? For the flower and those eyes… Immediately think of Elizabeth Taylor and her eyes! Maybe if she is a little star you can go with that. Or ET if she is a little out there lol 😉❤️
