What does Chichi mean?
/ˈʃi.ʃi/

Chichi is a French-derived word describing something fussy, elaborate, or affectedly showy, as in making "des chichis," or an unnecessary fuss. In English it's used more playfully to describe something stylish or a bit over-the-top.

It's a bouncy, expressive name with plenty of personality — good for a pet with a dramatic flair and a fondness for being fussed over.
