Hi Leon,
Quite a long list of russian female cat names can be found here:
http://www.charodey.com/names.php?p=r
Keep in mind, that actually not all of 'em are really russian names.
The words you asked:
Bell = kolokol. It's not good, because traditional russian female names
end with "a" (with only one known exception).
Wedding = svadba. Well, if you do like it...
Church = cerkov / hram. Again, not good words as a name, especially
female name.
For Russian Blue I would suggest Zafira (sapphire in spanish, but also
used as a female name in Russia) or Marina (sea blue, also very common
russian female name).
BTW, in russian, mother-in-law is tjoshja (can you spell it?) :)
I do speak and read russian without problems, so feel free to ask if you
do need more help.

Hi Everyone,
We are about to buy a female Russian Blue cat and want a Russian name
for her. We are buying her with money earned from ringing church
bells for weddings and thought that a bell related name would be
appropriate. The only problem is that no one we know speaks any
Russian.
Is there anyone on the list who speaks Russian and can provide me with
the Anglicised spelling (and correct pronunciation) of Russian words
for "bell", "wedding", "church" and anything related that would make a
nice name for a Russian Blue cat?
Many thanks in advance.
Leon
