I'm picking up this beauty in two weeks, she's a female and two years old with beautiful bright tortie markings Grin
I know cats kind of name themselves when they get home but you lovely lot always come up with good ideas for names, anything to get my brain going! Grin

No idea. But I used to volunteer in a cat rescue and honestly the number of cats that got named 'splodge', 'splat', 'smudge' - it was really predictable and very undignified for the cats too.

Please give her a proper name, don't just name her after the fact she has randomly patterned fur.

Our last cat was called 'Splat' when we got her. I ask you. We called her Polly when she came to us.

Thinking of possibly Coco, Betty or Betty but just ideas at the moment!

She's gorgeous. My parents had a tortie when I was small - she was called Lucy.

Betty is nice!

Actually my last tortie was called Beatrice. I thought it suited her.

Perdita is nice - it means 'lost' so is good for a cat that has been found, iyswim.

Beautiful girl.

Betty is what came to mind even before I saw you post.

My gran had a tortoiseshell very like that called Pansy. Seemed to suit the colouring.

I warn you she was a bloody tyrant though!
