Picked up our rescue kitten today, he's 12 weeks and full ginger with no white bits and needs a name. Working titles here are Genghis or Harry, but would love some suggestions! We already have a male Siamese called Inca...
Kitten pic should be in my profile!

I liked Boris or Becker, or Fox maybe? Keep 'em coming! He's fast asleep, and our old boy is asleep about 1 meter away from him so think we'll be ok.......couldn't contemplate sending back to rescue centre!

He looks rather like an 'Oscar'.

Too self contained for Bobby I think. A 'Robert' at the very least.

He's rather handsome isn't he? I've mentioned on here before that do love the name Oscar for a cat and I think he suits it. What about Sketch short for Szechuan since he looks so spicey?

How about one of the (boys') names from this list of Famous Redheads?

When my incredibly musical friend got a ginger kitten she used my suggestion of Vivaldi for his name.

I think Galileo would be a splendid name for a cat, personally...

We had a marmalade tabby called Bertram - DSis named him that as she was reading Agatha Christie's Bertram's Hotel at the time we acquired him, having found him in our (locked) shed. How that happened we still don't know.

Your kitten is really very cute. Personally I'd call her CrapintheNeighbour'sGarden but it might be a bit of a mouthful calling her in at night.

Seriously though, I'd call her Marumi, it's a small variety of Kumquat.

Sorry I now realise she's a he - but Marumi still works!
