Luna - male
Eclipse - female
Madame (formally Freya) - female
Bat - female
Ding - male
Rainbow bridge: Gaia - female, Apollo - female
Bat and Ding had those names at the shelter and we didn't see a reason to change them. Luna ... We were told he was a she as a kitten, and after a week of proper nutrition we saw the boy bits and just kept the name. Apollo was purposely named that way because we already had one swap and then we'd have the sun and moon.
If bat and ding are patterned/spotted. Then the dingbat joke kind of fits. (Dingbat characters are characters used in printing, that instead of being letters are ornamental pictograms, which from a far look like ink spots most of the time. i swear i remember there being long, whispy characters made as edge fillers, but i can't find them anywhere.)
