I'm a bit confused...does she not know her name yet? If not then just call her Nick Nack whenever you call her (I use combinations of calling kitty kitty and also 8-Ball...my kitty's name) and when I talk to him I call him by his name. Like I'll say "Are you hungry 8-Ball?" She will learn her name quickly if you use it frequently.

Big old Bud knows his name, I say it every time I feed him. Like, "you hungry bud?" or "Here you go, bud" (when I put his food down) or "good stuff, huh bud?". I also say it when he comes into a room--"whats up bud?" or "come here, bud, want some pet?". He is 5 years old now. His name as a kitten was Rikki Tiki Tabby, but at about a year old he stopped answering to that (too sissy for him I think), So I tried a few other names and that Bud is the one he responded to. He's been answering to it ever since! Definitely start with the feeding though. Seems to work the quickest, and I've used that tactic with many cats over the years.
