Part of the fun and enjoyment of welcoming a new kitten into your family is choosing the purr-fect name.
Some people opt for the simplest name - Fluffy or Kitty.
Then there are creative owners who christen the new feline with a name totally unique.
Most often, people try to choose a name that will fit the personality of the kitten.
The Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI) organization complies a list each year of the most popular names chosen by owners for their cats. For the second year in a row the name "Max" has taken top honors as the nation's most popular cat name.
