Hi!
That is so lovely that you are willing to take on two blind kittens; so many people overlook the special kitties.
Magoo is a fab name! That's really cute! We have a cat called Morrissey (after The Smiths) and one of his many, many, many nicknames is Magoo! Hhehe. Well, Mr. Magoo, to be precise! ;-)
The names that the person above me gave (Dallan and Cecilia) are lovely if you wish to give their names special meanings for their special conditions.
As other people have suggested, you could also give them names to do with their other senses - such as their sense of smell and sound. So Sonar, Audio, Sniff / Sniffy, Ears, etc would be meaningful and also very unique!
Just because they are blind though, it doesn't mean you have to choose a name that is anything to do with that.
My cat, Morrissey, and my kitten, Pixies, are both named after bands we love. Me and my boyfriend are massively in to music, so musical names were the obvious options for our kitties! If you have a favourite band, song, music, film, tv show, sport, etc, it would be great to name them using that as an inspiration.
I'd love to hear what you decide to call them in the end! :-)

We have a blind kitty named Homer which I ve since discovered is far from unique. I was going to give him his own blog when I discovered there are a few others already out there so so now I m considering Blind Melon Kitten.

I am so pleased that you are taking on such a responsibility. One wonders why they are blind though, are they brother and sister and is it genetic? If so, who was the mother blind and if so, the breeder is totally irresponsible and should have the mother speyed. However, the kittens will develop very acute hearing and rely on whiskers for getting around. I hope though you are not near a main road. I wouldn't call them by names that reflect their disability. How about, instead, Vision, Vista, Light, and similar.

How about Dallan for the Male - it's Irish and means "blind"
And for the girl, Cecilia - it's and Italian name for "blind one"

I liked her suggestion of Cecilia, good name for a cat, how about Ray Charles for the boy?

'Ray' for the girl and 'Charles' for the boy?
Maybe go for some Stevie Wonder song names? Such as 'Ebony' and 'Ivory'? Maybe 'Sir Duke' for the boy and 'Cherie' for the girl?
Or how about Ray Charles songs? 'Ruby' or 'Georgia' for the girl, 'Jack' for the boy.....or 'Eleanor' for the girl and 'Rigby' for the boy?
I really like the previous idea of Dallan and Cecilia, though.
