So Raina and I were conversing today while I was folding laundry. I was reminding her that her friend "I" was going to have a baby brother soon. Ergo, we wouldn't be going to NY for a while to see them.
Me: "Aunty is having a hard time figuring out what to name I's new baby brother."
Raina: "I know the perfect name! She should name him 'Sock.'"
Me: "'Sock'?!"
Raina: "Yeah, I like that name."
Me: "I think Aunty wants him to have an Indian name, like I."
Raina: "And like you and me and Rohan and daddy..."
Me: "Yes. All of us have Indian names. Except Pikey (the cat). Poor Pikey. We should have given her an Indian name too."
Raina: "Let's give her an Indian name!"
Me: "We could give her an Indian middle name. Do you have any suggestions?"
Raina: "Parvati. I think we should name her Pikey Parvati."
Me: "I think I'll call her 'Paro'."
Pikey Parvati, you're officially an ABCD cat now.

AB Cool Cat!
congratulations on the naming of the new ABCD! I love the name - Pikey Paro....
Now to get her to actually respond to Parvati or Paro may take some time...
What a perfectly cool name! Pikey Paro - the ABCD cat! :)
Hahaha! Love this!
Thanks again, ladies!
Now that is a cool cat!
:)

Nice verse, s.b.! Nope, Pikey's a Paro alright...
a muser:
are you gonna get raina learn kannada and sing this song to the cat? ;-)
if our recent experience (in bengaluru) was anything, a whole lot of pets and babies will be named 'paro!'
