what is the translation for "bitty ( tiny) baby" in Japanese, and what is the pronunciation?

We have a very tiny kitten. She is 4 or 5 weeks old. She has a big head and a tiny, short body and tail, and is all gray. We want to name her something that fits her bitty baby size.

    hi, I'm Japanese.

    if i were you, i name her

    ちび chibi

    ちびちゃん chibi chan

    おちびちゃん ochibi chan

    ちび is a slang, which means ''litlle, short, tiny". it's insulting if you call someone ちび. it's a little rough expression, but no problem only when you call your own cat.

    ちびちゃん is ちび plus an afffectionate suffix ちゃん. it's a rather mild expression.

    おちびちゃん is a polite prefix お plus ちび plus ちゃn. coming to this it sounds a little playful.

    i've never heard anything but these for a name concerning "bitty, tiny, little". there are many words which means "bitty", while you can use a few as a name. literally "bitty baby" is ちいさな赤ちゃん chiisana akachan. but it's kind of written word and we never call a baby ちいさな赤ちゃん face to face.

    You should ask this in the Language section. We're about pet care, etc here.
