They sound like cute names, but then you'll have 3 kitties nicknamed
"Siggy"

Cute now but maybe not so cute in a year, right?

Hope you can talk yourself out of it, because for sure with names like that,
they will end up with nicknames. Maybe nicknames you wouldn't have chosen.

Ahah! A Wagner Fan wanting Walsung cats. =o) I actually think it's
kind of neat. Although it's true, you might end up with three cats
nicknamed Siggy. Unless of course you call them Fried, Mund and Linde.

Well, if they are as inbred as a lot of kits are, it's not exactly
inappropriate, but it might be confusing for the kitties.

Wagnerian names don't seem to have a really broad appeal. I love
Wagner, but I don't think I'd give one of my kits a Wagner name. Just
too heavy and clunky for cats, IMO.

Ah, another thing I forgot. You'll end up with cats addicted to
alliteration. "Wehe, O Wa:lsung, Wehe!" :O

They all sound like great names. Why wouldn't you want to name them thusly?

I wouldn't worry unless you notice them pulling little swords out of
trees. Or howling "Waaaaaaaaalse! Waaaaalse!" when they want to be
fed. =o)

At least they won't go "Weia, waga, woge du welle!"

Now, will they have aunts named Gerhilde, Rossweise, Schwertleite,
Waltraute, Ortlinde, Grimgerde, Siegrune, Helmwiege, and (last but not
least!) Brünnhilde?
