I'm on a waiting list for a female siamese kitten (not even sure what color she'll end up being). I've been keeping an eye open for unique names, especially with a fantasy slant. I thought I might see if any of our members had suggestions.
My short list so far:
Imrhi
Iris
Hazel
Diora
Tizzy
Dervish
Siri
Dancer

I rather favor Sita (wife of Rama). 

Dervish is nice, but you could call a male cat that as well.  And, that's the kind of name that should go with a specific cat's character.  (I know Siamese tend to be fierce, but you never know... 

Imhri is nice, but is it female?

You could always wait and see what the cat is actually like.  I know it doesn't sound very original, but we often end up calling our pets by names that describe their looks or character; such as Smiley or Smurfie .

...but of course, a Siamese cat needs a more regal name, so I understand your pain.  

If you don't like Sita, Diora is nice.

Yes, Diora could definitely work...

PS, Have you ruled out Cleo?

Over almost 30 years( yikes! 30??) of working with pets, most pet names have little furry faces or specific memories attached to them. I have hear so many unique names, but they all remind me of some thing.

For example, these I really like, but they're 'taken' so to speak:

Purr-puss

Teasle

Biz

Gracey

Teeter (and his sibling, Totter)

Winkin, Blinkin and Nod - all orange tabby brothers

Willow

Charlotte

Evie

Luna

Kami

Kaname

Kagome

Orahime

all are fun cat names and the last three have spiritual aspects too.

I like Winkin, and the brothers...

and Teeter and Totter, wow it has been a looooooong time since i was on a teeter totter, not sure if they still have them. They were very exciting in their day for the little me

First names came to my mind was:

China,

China cat,

Ichi ban ( which is kind of dumb, it means number one but I like the sound )

 none of which are fantasy like.

If she is loud, unruly, cross-eyed and in need of constant attention or if she likes green eggs and ham, you could name her Siam I am.   

Cheers, Terry 

The most unique cat name I ever heard was Sagababba.  My cousin made it up for her cat when she was a kid.

How about some of Shakespeare's characters:

Ariel

Miranda

Titania or one of her fairies:  Peaseblossom, Cobweb, Moth, Mustardseed 

Ophelia (if she's a bit nutty)

Desdemona

Bianca (if her fur is mostly white)

(Heh, ironically, despite it being now considered to be a female name, was Ariel in The Tempest not a male character? ;P)

Hum...  It's not an name of the far east, but, inspired I believe by the game The Marionette, I have a fondness for the name "Eshana" (which, according to BabyNames.com, means "Wish" or "Desire").

For the more fantastic, perhaps Angua or Conina, after the characters (see here (including pronunciation, I believe) and here) from the Discworld novels (although the former may not be ideal, given that said character was a werewolf ^^; ).

Historically, Ariel has been played by both males and females. 

How about sometihing really simple...like

Kitty

or how about just.....

Meow? 

A Siamese cat is not a mere kitty! 

>>>>The Siamese cat originated from Thailand, formerly known as Siam. These cats were held in such high esteem in their native country that no one except the King and members of the royal family were permitted to own them. They were originally known as Royal points.

     Written records reveal that Siamese cats, in their country of origin, were venerated as guardians of the temples. When a person of high rank died, it was usual to select one of these cats to receive the dead person's soul. The cat was then removed from the royal household and sent to one of the temples to spend the rest of its days living a ceremonial life of great luxury, with monks and priests as its servants. These cats were reputed to eat the finest foods from gold plate and to recline on cushions made of the most opulent materials, which had been provided by the departed one's relatives in an attempt to receive good fortune and blessings. Once they became temple cats, they were supposed to have special powers and could intercede for the soul of the dead person.<<<

Btw, which 'type' are you getting, Colpet?

Colpet is the Angelina Jolie of the pet world.  So how about 'More' as a name - as in 'always room for one more'. 

Fess up Colpet, tell the nice people how many pets you already have - and their names. 

awwwwwww that is sweet, lucky pets too i 'll wager

Of course i'd have to pronounce it "MO-ray"

Let's see - 4 cats (Marty, Casey, Jerry and Arthur) and 3 dogs (Midas, Tyler and Phoebe)

Here's the web page for the Siamese kitten. I'm going with the classic look (wedge-head).

BTW, Phoebe's got 10 new half-siblings (her mom is Maggie). Here's a link to some pictures from the breeder:

But of course the liitle kitten will reveal it's personality more as time goes on and then you could better come up with a name.  But here's my short list anyway:

GIRL NAMES

Daisy

Lucy

Mitzy

Sophie

Tootsie

Chiki

Sassy

BOY NAMES

Teddy

Archie

Diesel

Jazz

Romeo

ziggy

UNISEX NAMES

Ballou

Chilli

Radar

Mambo

I really like the look of those Portugese Water dogs.  Very cuddly.    But I'm afraid I prefer cats with a bit lot more fur on them.
