Ami E. Bowen The word 'Grimalkin' actually means a domestic cat; especially an old female cat.

Love this!

Varsha Ha lol yeah that's hilarious. He is nothing like a domestic cat..
I wonder if Julie Kagawa meant his name to be that.
Thanks for sharing.

Ami E. Bowen She was probably just thinking of the 'cat' part of the name. It does sound more like a male name though. I think it'd be funny if a character were to point out Grim's name's meaning to him in a teasing kind of way. Actually, I can see Puck teasing Grim about the origins of his name. "Hey, Grim! Did you know your name; Grimalkin, actually means a female domestic housecat? That's hilarious!"
